Home Energy Rating Variability Study
HERS Raters often provide third-party verification services for minimum and above-code programs. In recognition of this trend, the U.S. Department of Energy commissioned a study exploring the consistency and replicability of the HERS system, and the impact of HERS Raters assuming a greater role in energy code compliance.
Observations of Insulation Products in Flood Damaged Homes: Hurricane Harvey Report
Following Hurricane Harvey in 2017 SPEER conducted a field analysis to collect and analyze data on the condition of various types of insulation in flood-damaged homes. While SPEER hopes that no one is ever subject to the devastation or a disaster like Hurricane Harvey again, we are prepared to undertake similar research efforts in the future if the need arises and welcome partners in those projects.
