Today on the Reschexpert blog we want to talk about some recent issues on Rescheck Web. Rescheck Web is the mainstay Rescheck software created by the Department of Energy to create Reschecks. Today when logging on to Rescheck web you will notice a Red banner that looks like this:

This banner means that Rescheck Web could be down today at certain times making it harder to create a Rescheck on Rescheck Web.

The maintenance that could be undertaken might be anything from server maintenance, added Rescheck Web functionality, software updates, or other basic maintenance to the Rescheck Web Rescheck creation portal. We will not know for sure until Rescheck Web comes back online.

What this means for Rescheck Web users and DIY Rescheck creators is that you should take several steps right now to prepare for this announced Rescheck Web outage. These are:

Do any Reschecks that you have backlogged right now. The service may be up when you check right now so today is not the day to procrastinate on creating your Rescheck online. If you have one to do get it done now before the software is down for maintenance.

Download Rescheck Desktop. You can create Reschecks up to IECC 2018 on Rescheck Desktop. Go ahead and get a fresh upload of Rescheck setup and working on your computers so you have a backup software to use while Rescheck Web is down.

Postpone any IECC 2021 Reschecks until later in the day. If you have any of the latest IECC Reschecks to do then you can go ahead and create them using Rescheck Desktop and then transfer them to Rescheck Web when the online Rescheck software becomes workable again.

Be patient. These updates to Rescheck Web are few and far between. They usually only last for 8-12 hours and the functionality that is gained on Rescheck Web is far better that any inconvenience that is suffered during a Rescheck Web outage. We do applaud the Department of Energy and Pacific Northwest Laboratory for adding the banner message announcing that Rescheck Web will be down. In the past the Rescheck Web has went down unannounced which makes it much harder to plan. By having a pre-notice of the outage it can help everyone involved in Rescheck prepare accordingly.

Keep in tune with Rescheck.info during the day as we follow this outage and we will let you know when Rescheck Web is back to full functionality.

If you need a Rescheck created today then we can help. Email PDF plans, jobsite address, and square footage to service@rescheck.info and we will get you taken care of.
