Northwest Business Monthly - December 2006 - Inspector gains home energy certification
Robert Stockmann of Pinnacle Inspections in Bellingham is the second person in Washington certified to provide home energy ratings.
Stockmann completed training in September to be certified by the Residential Energy Services Network. A home energy rater reviews a house to identify its energy characteristics, such as insulation levels, window efficiency, wall-to-window ratios, the heating and cooling system efficiency, the solar orientation of the home and the water heating system. Performance testing, such as a blower door test for air leakage and duct leakage, is usually part of the rating.
Stockmann founded Pinnacle Inspections in 2002 after working more than 25 years in custom home and commercial construction.
