Lower HERS® Score. Greater Efficiency.
The HERS® (Home Energy Rating System) Score is the nationally recognized standard for measuring a home’s energy efficiency. The lower the score, the more energy-efficient the home.
A certified third-party energy rater evaluates each home using specialized software and on-site testing. The score is calculated based on Insulation levels and air sealing, window and door performance, heating and cooling system efficiency, ductwork design and leakage, water heating systems, overall home size and layout, blower door testing to measure air infiltration. The home’s performance is compared against a reference home built to standard code. A score of 100 represents the reference home. Every point lower than 100 reflects a percentage improvement in energy efficiency.
Energy-Efficient New Construction Homes Built for Long-Term Savings
Fischer Homes builds energy-efficient new construction homes designed to deliver long-term performance, comfort, and lower utility costs. Through our EnergyWise® approach to sustainable home construction, every home is built with advanced insulation systems, high-performance windows, efficient HVAC equipment, and professionally sealed ductwork to reduce energy waste.
Our new homes are independently tested and HERS rated to verify energy performance, helping homeowners understand their home’s projected efficiency compared to standard construction. By combining smart building practices with energy-saving features, we create high-performance homes that use less energy for heating, cooling, and everyday living.
The result is a new construction home built for improved indoor comfort, reduced environmental impact, and potential long-term energy savings.
