On a scale of 0-150, the lower a home scores the more energy efficient it is. Learn more about the benefit of HERS Score houses, and how Sutter Homes uses this score to maximize energy efficiency in their construction.
As construction codes continue to modernized, HERS rated homes, like those built by Sutter Home, pave the way to a cleaner, environmentally friendlier, and more efficient future.
The lower a home scores on the HERS index, the more energy efficient and healthy the home is. Sutter Homes are rated below zero on the HERS index.
HERS rated homes reduce 1 million tons of carbon production every year, and that number grows as more net positive homes from builders like Sutter Homes are constructed.
When a home rates below zero on the HERS index, it means that the home produces enough energy to cover all of the utility bills and has electricity leftover. This can be used to charge your electric car, mobile devices, power tools, or receiving a check back from your electric provider as you put your extra energy back into the system.
