HERS HVAC Compliance Package in Orange County
The All-in-One Solution to Finalize Your HVAC Permit. We bundle all required Title 24 tests—Duct Leakage, Refrigerant Charge, and Fan Watt Draw—into one fast, efficient appointment.
Stop Guessing What Your Permit Requires.
Navigating the Title 24 permit process for an HVAC project can be confusing. Your contractor or city inspector has told you that you need "HERS verification," but you're left to figure out what that means. You might need a duct test, something about refrigerant, and maybe a fan test?
We make it simple. Our HVAC Compliance Package is the definitive, all-in-one solution for 99% of all residential HVAC replacement permits in Orange County. Instead of booking three separate services, you just book this one package, and we handle the rest.
What's Included in Your HVAC Compliance Package?
This package includes 100% of the HERS verifications required by the California Energy Code for a typical residential HVAC changeout. One of our certified HERS Raters will perform all three mandatory tests in a single visit.
Duct Leakage Testing
We connect a calibrated duct blaster to your system to pressurize the ductwork. This confirms that your ducts are sealed tight and not leaking expensive conditioned air, a primary requirement for Title 24.
Refrigerant Charge & Airflow Verification
We verify that your new air conditioner is charged with the precise amount of refrigerant specified by the manufacturer. This ensures your A/C runs at peak efficiency, saves you money, and prevents premature equipment failure.
Fan Watt Draw (Fan Efficacy) Test
We measure the exact electrical consumption of your HVAC system's fan motor. This test confirms your fan meets California's high-efficiency standards, a final and mandatory check for permit closure.
Who is This All-in-One Package For?
This package is the perfect solution for:
- Homeowners who just installed a new A/C, furnace, or complete HVAC system.
- HVAC Contractors who need a reliable, third-party HERS Rater to finalize their permit.
- Any Project involving a standard HVAC "changeout" or replacement.
- Any Permit in Orange County that requires verification of duct leakage, refrigerant charge, and fan efficacy.

Stop worrying. This package is specifically designed to provide every HERS document your inspector needs to see. We provide the certified CF3R forms the same day, so you can close your permit.
Package & Permit FAQs
Is this package all I need to pass my HVAC inspection?
Yes. For the HERS verification portion of a standard HVAC changeout, this package covers all three mandatory tests. Your inspector will also check your contractor's installation work, but our reports will satisfy the third-party Title 24 testing requirements.
How long does the full package test take?
For a single HVAC system, the entire process (Duct, Refrigerant, and Fan tests) typically takes between 90 minutes and 2 hours. We work efficiently to get you the results, fast.
What if my permit only requires a duct test?
While most HVAC permits require all three, we do offer standalone services. However, if your permit is for a new A/C or furnace, it's highly likely you'll need all three tests. We can confirm this with you when you call.
Do I need a Blower Door Test for my new A/C?
No. A Blower Door Test is not required for a simple HVAC system replacement. That test is for whole-home airtightness and is typically only mandatory for new construction or major remodels.
