What is a Pearl Certification?

Pearl Certification is a national firm that provides third-party certification of high-performing homes: homes with “performance assets” that make them healthy, safe, comfortable, energy and water efficient. Homes can earn Pearl Points each time they upgrade some aspect of their home to be more efficient. This program provides an incentive for families to set energy efficiency as a priority.

Why should I want a pearl certified home?

As more and more people are setting a priority on conserving resources and living sustainably, energy-efficient homes will become more in demand. A Pearl Certified home has an increased value over other similar homes. It’s estimated that Pearl Certified Homes sell for about 5% more than a similar home that isn’t energy efficient. This makes a big difference if you are planning to sell your home in the future.

• Energy Efficiency and Lower Utility Bills – A Pearl Certified home is an energy-efficient home. The certification process evaluates the home’s energy usage, identifying areas where improvements can be made. By implementing these upgrades, homeowners can significantly reduce their energy consumption and, in turn, lower their utility bills.
• Enhanced Home Value – One of the primary benefits of Pearl Certification is the potential increase in home value. By obtaining Pearl Certification, homeowners can differentiate their property in the market, attract environmentally conscious buyers, and potentially command a higher selling price.
• Access to Financing and Incentives – Pearl Certification provides homeowners with access to a range of financing options and incentives. Some lenders offer specialized loan programs with favorable terms for energy-efficient home improvements. Being Pearl Certified can help homeowners qualify for these financial incentives, making energy-efficient renovations more affordable.
• Improved Comfort and Health – Pearl Certification assesses various aspects of a home, including insulation, HVAC systems, ventilation, and air quality. Through the certification process, homeowners gain insights into their home’s strengths and weaknesses in terms of comfort and health. This knowledge empowers homeowners to make targeted improvements, resulting in enhanced indoor air quality, more consistent temperatures, and overall improved comfort for their families.
