Instructions
 To qualify for ENERGY STAR, a home must meet the National Program Requirements and the measures listed in these checklists:

    ::	Design Requirements Checklist (either Prescriptive Path or Performance Path)
    ::	Thermal Enclosure System Checklist
    ::	HVAC System Quality Installation Checklist
    ::	HVAC System Quality Verification Checklist
    ::	Water Management System Checklist (or Indoor airPLUS Verification Checklist)1
 Checklist items flagged for field verification are verified by a Rater.2 Raters are expected to use their experience and discretion to verify that the overall intent of each inspection checklist item has been met (i.e., identifying major defects that undermine the intent of the checklist item versus identifying minor defects that the Rater may deem acceptable). The column titled "N/A," which denotes items that are "not applicable," should be used when the checklist item is not present in the home or conflicts with local requirements.

 In the event that a Rater finds an item that is inconsistent with the intent of the inspection checklists, the home cannot earn the ENERGY STAR until the item is corrected. If correction of the item is not possible, the home cannot earn the ENERGY STAR.

 The Rater is required to keep electronic or hard copies of the completed and signed checklists. The signature of the HVAC technician is required if any of the HVAC equipment specified on the HVAC System Quality Installation Checklist is installed in the home.

 To receive the home label(s) and certificate, the Rater must send this Modular Home Completion Report,
 a copy of all completed and signed Inspection Checklists and a check for $50 per home* (builder's report processing fee for home certificate and site label) to:

       Systems Building Research Alliance
       1776 Broadway, Suite 2205
       New York, NY 10019

 Please allow up to 5 days for delivery. For 2-Day delivery, enclose an additional $20 S&H fee.

 * If this is a plant certification home, the following processing fees apply (select one):

     $150 plant certification home ($100 for plant QA label + $50 builder's fee)
                                                         - OR -

   2   The term "Rater" refers to the person completing the third-party inspections required for qualification. This party may be a certified Home Energy Rater, Rating Field Inspector or BOP Inspector.
 3   Temporarily installed homes must be re-inspected by a Rater when installed on the final home site and a new Completion
   Report must be submitted along with the $50 report processing fee for the home certificate and site label.
