Home Energy Raters Disclaimer

 

You must read this disclaimer before accessing
the list of Certified Home Energy Raters

 

Individuals and companies provided on this list are Home Energy Raters currently certified to submit associated documentation to the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources in connection with the HERO Program. These individuals and companies are private sector businesses, and are in no way affiliated with either the state of Louisiana or the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources. Neither the state of Louisiana nor the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources accept responsibility for any contractual agreement entered into between a home owner, or home builder, and the individuals or companies on this list. Neither the state of Louisiana nor the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources assume any responsibility for any failure on the part of individuals or companies on this list to perform their prescribed duties under the HERO Program. It is the responsibility of the individual home owner, or home builder to insure that the individuals or companies on this list have submitted the appropriate documentation to the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources in a timely manner.

In order to meet the requirements of the HERO Program, and qualify the appropriate funds for the rated home, preliminary ratings must be submitted to DNR by the energy rater within three weeks of the rating date. Three weeks after the energy rater has conducted your preliminary rating, you can go to the following web site:

http://sonris-www.dnr.state.la.us/www_root/sonris_portal_1.htm

At this web site you can see If, and when the energy rater submitted your preliminary rating to the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources. The Louisiana Department of Natural Resources verifies the documentation submitted only by individuals or companies on this list, assesses the appropriate rebate award associated with these submittals, and awards the cash rebate directly to the qualifying participants. Individuals and companies whose business practices are deemed inappropriate are removed from this list. DNR strongly advises contacting more than one energy rater from this list before deciding on one to perform your energy rating.

All individuals and companies, that are certified to work within the HERO Program, must carry and present a valid and current Rater ID Badge to home owners, and home builders while performing HERO related work on any residence. HERO related work refers to consultation, software entry, and mechanical testing of the home. DNR strongly recommends that you check the credentials of anyone representing themselves as a HERO certified home energy rater against the list of raters listed on this site at the time of your rating. If you become aware of anyone presenting themselves as a HERO certified home energy rater without the proper credentials, please contact the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources so that we may take the appropriate actions.

  NOTE :

Rules, guidelines, and procedures for the HERO Program are subject to change without notice. The guarantee that your home will be processed under the program only occurs once the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources receives a preliminary rating for your home, as submitted by a home energy rater that is listed on our website at the time of this preliminary. Your rebate will be based upon the guidelines that are in place at the time that the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources receives your preliminary rating.
