HERS / ECC Field Verification in Martinez, CA

Title 24 / HERS / ECC field verification for HVAC contractors, builders and homeowners in Martinez and nearby Contra Costa communities.

Title 24 field verification in Martinez

Martinez projects can include older-home HVAC replacements, heat-pump installations, additions, remodels and ADUs. The city’s permit process and the project’s California Energy Code documents determine what must be completed before final approval. We focus on the field-verification portion: reviewing the available project information, confirming the applicable measures, performing the required site work and documenting results. Nearby service includes Pleasant Hill, Concord, Walnut Creek and communities throughout Contra Costa County.

Martinez permits and project documents

The City of Martinez Permit Center / Building Division handles building permits within city limits. The city moved new building permit applications to electronic submittal in 2026. For field verification, the most useful starting point is the project’s CF1R or other energy compliance documentation, along with the permit year and equipment information. The documents—not the city name alone—determine which HERS/ECC measures apply.

Common project types

We can support applicable verification for HVAC replacements, heat-pump installations, ADUs, remodels, additions and other residential projects when field verification is specified. Send the project information before scheduling so the required tests can be confirmed.

Having the project address, permit year, CF1R or other compliance documents, and installed equipment information available before scheduling helps confirm the correct verification scope. If the project documents call for multiple measures, those can be coordinated for the same site visit when practical.
