Registry, Permits & Paperwork
Everything now runs through CHEERS, California’s energy code registry — and the 2025 code added forms, fees, and consumer documents to track. We handle the whole stack.
- Project registration and document routing in CHEERS
- CF2R/CF3R completion and uploads
- Consumer Information Form before testing; Project Owner Report at completion
- Non-rater project registrations for documentation-only scopes
- Exemption documentation where a test isn’t required but the paperwork still is
- Permit-pulling help for owner-builders and small shops — incorporated and unincorporated jurisdictions alike
Budget facts for shops managing their own registry accounts, as published by CHEERS (May 2026): builder/contractor subscriptions run $20 per user per month; non-rater project registrations are $50; rater document fees are $45 for new construction and $30 for alterations.
