The company specializes in various critical areas such as HERS (Home Energy Rating System) testing, Title 24 energy calculations, and Manual J duct system design. Offering a comprehensive range of services, Cal Starr Energy Consultants ensures compliance with state requirements, catering to both new construction projects and alterations of existing properties.
Their offering of HERS inspections includes a variety of assessments including Quality Insulation Inspection (QII), HVAC inspections, and duct testing, alongside evaluations of refrigerant charge to meet state mandates. Title 24 energy calculations are another cornerstone of their services, where they assist in producing necessary documentation and provide consultations to facilitate compliance with California’s stringent energy efficiency standards.
In addition, Cal Starr conducts Manual J calculations to design duct systems effectively, ensuring optimal energy usage whether for standard systems or mini splits. This emphasis on customized consultations allows clients to receive appropriate guidance tailored to their specific energy needs.
The firm has also notified stakeholders about imminent changes regarding HERS certification due to CalCERTS’ decision to cease operations as a HERS provider by August 2024. This shift will require prior certifications to be re-evaluated by a qualified energy company, emphasizing Cal Starr’s role in assisting clients through these changes with clear communication about potential costs and procedures.
With a team of experienced consultants, Cal Starr Energy Consultants is committed to providing cost-effective solutions while navigating the complexities of energy compliance in California.
