RESNET is proud to recognize Fox Energy Specialists for achieving an extraordinary milestone, completing more than 100,000 HERS® Ratings. In recognition of this accomplishment, the company has been inducted into the RESNET 100,000 Homes Club. For decades, Fox Energy Specialists has been a trusted leader in residential energy ratings, helping builders deliver high-performance homes while providing homebuyers with independently verified information about energy efficiency, comfort, and value. Reflecting on this milestone, Fox Energy Specialists Chief Operating Officer James Rodriguez said: We are honored to join RESNET’s 100,000 Rated Homes Club. This achievement would not have been possible without the hard work our team contributes every day. From our administrative staff, energy modelers, field inspectors, QA team, Builder Account and Branch Managers, our people are the engine behind producing high-quality HERS Ratings at this scale. We are especially grateful for our long-standing partnership with RESNET. Their team has been a strong partner—always accessible for guidance, education, and support for continuous improvement. We are excited about the opportunities ahead for our industry and look forward to the next 100,000 HERS Ratings. In addition to this achievement, Fox Energy Specialists has made significant contributions to advancing the HERS Industry. James Rodirugez worked alongside the Texas Builders Association and other industry stakeholders to help secure passage of Texas House Bill 3215, which recognizes the HERS Index as a standalone energy code compliance pathway in Texas. RESNET congratulates James Rodriguez and the entire Fox Energy Specialists team on this remarkable achievement and thanks them for their continued leadership in advancing high-performance homes and their ongoing support of RESNET and the HERS Industry.
