IAPMO UES has partnered with ENERGY STAR to provide a quick and simple path to demonstrate how your product is ENERGY STAR certified. Once your product has demonstrated that it meets the intent of the building code through evaluation and publication of an IAPMO UES Evaluation Report (ER), an additional certification is added to you ER report through the use of a supplement. This provides an all inclusive document that can be presented to anyone in your market place.

ENERGY STAR recognizes that installation is key to the performance and safety of the product. Specific installation instructions are required with every ENERGY STAR certification that clarify in detail how to install insulations in order to achieve the full benefit of the material provided.
