What is REScheck?
The REScheck (formerly MECcheck) product group enables designers and builders to quickly and easily determine whether new homes, additions, and low-rise apartment buildings will meet the requirements of the Model Energy Code (MEC) or the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). REScheck also simplifies code compliance determinations for building officials, plan checkers, and inspectors. States, counties, or cities may require compliance with the MEC or the IECC for new residential construction. Financial guarantees through the Farmers Home Administration, Rural Economic and Community Development (Department of Agriculture) and Veterans Administration also require compliance with the MEC.
