HVAC TestingAdministration and Reporting

Fox Energy Specialists has spent years developing some of the most sophisticated web-based data management and tracking systems in the industry. In June of 2008, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office award our company U.S. Patent No. US7,389,157 for our innovative method and system of inspecting a home for energy efficiency. We have designed our systems to give clients real time access to information necessary to monitor their programs. We have also taken the burden of managing all of the paperwork needed to support these programs off of our clients We’ve automated the data management and tracking so our clients don’t have to. This saves our clients administrative time and money.

We support our clients with reporting to all of the required agencies which include the Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR® Program, LEED for Homes, NAHB Green Building Program, any Local Green Building Programs, and most importantly participating utility company incentive programs. We are ranked among the best of any Energy Rating Providers supporting these programs for timely and accurate incentive reporting. Our turnkey administrative and reporting support translates into our clients receiving their payments on time and positions them for additional program incentives.

Fox Energy Specialists has invested significant time and money into ensuring our inspectors and raters are among the most highly trained in the industry. We have a patented process that is followed to confirm that our inspection and testing protocols not only meet all of the industry standards but exceed our client’s expectations as well. We pride ourselves on being efficient in our process so that each client receives the highest level of service and there is no guess work involved. We follow-up both before and after each inspection to make sure the client is well-informed and avoids any delays in construction.

Fox Energy Specialists practices stringent quality control policies that often exceed industry standards. Our ISO 9001 staff and RESNET Certified QA/QC designees are there to confirm that our clients are receiving the best quality of service possible.

The thorough inspection and testing protocols conducted by our inspectors and raters are designed to improve home performance and provide our clients and their home buyers with piece of mind that their homes are sustainable, safe, and comfortable.

This allows our clients access to inspection and testing results as they are completed in real time.
