a difference between a vapor retarder or barrier and an air barrier.An air barrier is intended to stop air
flow(convection)a vapor retarder or barrier is intended to stop molecular moisture transfer(diffusion).
A vapor retarder or barrier is effective even if there are some holes or gaps, however an air barrier has
to be absolute and complete. If air can leak through an electrical device or through a crack it follows the
path of least resistance and carries 99%of the moisture in a structure.This is evident every time one
exposes fiberglass insulation and finds black insulation, which is dirt filter out of the air moving through
the insulation. 780 CMR R601.2 for vapor retarders and Table N1102.4.2 for air sealing requirements.

2. Preliminary Home Energy Rating Results
Based on the assumptions described above, we have calculated the following Preliminary Home Energy Rating results.
Preliminary HERS Index: 66
Preliminary Improvement Over 2014 Mass. Reference Home v2: 28.4% -Tier I*
Note that Confirmed Home Energy Rating results may vary from the Preliminary Home Energy Rating results due to
changes in building plans, energy features installed in the home, RESNET standards, software changes, and other
factors.
3. Services Requested
CET will provide a Confirmed Home Energy Rating for the purpose(s) indicated below. CET will charge fees for these
activities based on your Home Energy Rating Services Agreement.
• Stretch Energy Code compliance
• Incentives for the Mass Save Residential New Construction program—Tier I*
*= Mass Save Residential New Construction requirements and incentive amounts can change at any time without
notice at the discretion of program sponsors. We anticipate, but do not guarantee, that current program requirements
and incentive amounts will apply to this project as long as it is completed and inspected by November 30, 2015.
As part of these services, CET will verify that your home meets all the requirements of these programs.

HOME OWNER EXEMPTION ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The State of Massachusetts allows the homeowner the right under 780CMR 108.3.4 to act as his/her
construction supervisor. The state defines "Homeowner" as, " Person(s) who owns a parcel on which
he/she resides or intends to be, a one or two family dwelling, attached or detached structures
accessory to such use and/or farm structures. A person who constructs more than one home in a two-
year period shall not be considered a home owner."
The building department for the City of Northampton wants any person(s)who seek to use the home
owner exemption, to act as their own construction supervisor, to be aware that by doing so you
become responsible for compliance with state building codes and regulations. The inspection
process requires that the building department be called to inspect work at various stages, which include
foundation/footings (before backfill) sonotube holes (before pour) a rough building inspection
(before work is concealed), insulation inspection (if required) and a final building inspection
The building department requires these inspections before the work is concealed, failure to secure
these inspections can result in failure to obtain a certificate of occupancy until the work can be
inspected.
If the homeowner hires other trades to perform work (electrical, plumbing & gas) the homeowner will be
responsible to make sure that the trades hired secure their proper permits in conjunction to the building
permit issued, and that they get their required inspections. Failure of the individual trades to secure
the permits and inspections as required can DELAY the project until such time as the proper permits
and inspections are made
1. understand the above.
(Home owner/resident's si ature questing exemption)
I will call to schedule all required building inspections necessary for the building permit issued to me.
