 Units designated for EnergyStar Certification are inspected during the in-plant assembly process for compliance with prescribed "Thermal Bypass Checklist" criteria, as well as selection of EnergyStar rated components (i.e. exhaust fans, light fixtures, etc.) and other aspects of the Energy Star Program. Once erected at the site, the home is subjected to a blower door pressurization test as well as a duct tightness test before the Energy Star label can be applied.
