How do I report Indoor airPLUS labeled homes to EPA?
There is no need to send the verification checklists to EPA. However home energy raters should check to see if their HERS provider or green building program provider needs a copy. Raters coordinate with providers to report Indoor airPLUS qualified homes for each builder at the same time as ENERGY STAR quarterly reports are submitted, or as the homes are completed.
Starting April 1, 2010, Indoor airPLUS will be included in the ENERGY STAR reporting process. During each reporting period (January, April, July, and October), Providers that are ENERGY STAR partners will report ENERGY STAR and Indoor airPLUS homes to EPA on behalf of their builders and Raters through the ENERGY STAR Homes Online Submission Tool (HOST) available at www.energystar.gov/host.
Within the report, Providers will specify the number of homes that earned the Indoor airPLUS label in addition to ENERGY STAR. Blank label stickers can be ordered through HOST for both Indoor airPLUS and ENERGY STAR once the home reports are submitted. EPA is in the process of creating an Indoor airPLUS printing tool similar to ENERGY STAR that will allow Providers to customize and print sticker labels, certificates and homebuyer letters.
If you are not currently an ENERGY STAR partner, please send reports to IAP@icfi.com. If you have questions about the reporting process, please contact us at IAP@icfi.com
