The new 2016 Title-24 Energy Code requires that all CF-1R forms must be registered and signed off by the architect/designer of record.

.

This process begins with the architect registering with either CalCerts or CHEERS, two of the approved HERS providers in the State.  We suggest you register with both as some of your projects will be uploaded to either provider.

Registration with either provider is no charge to the architect
