Frequently Asked Questions

I made payment online, but then I didn’t receive my Energy Forms. What do I do?

First check your Spam and download folders. Also, if the transaction went through properly, you will receive an email receipt which will also contain a link to the energy forms. If you still don’t see it, call us immediately and we will email your energy forms to you right away. We can see payments made on our end, instantly.

Will the charges ever exceed what you quoted me?

As long as the information you provide for the quote matches the information in the permit plans, Kalos charges will not vary from what we quoted you. Keep in mind our payment merchants charge a slight transaction fee which will be reflected on top of our quoted amount at checkout.

How long will it take for Kalos to complete my Energy Forms?

Under most circumstances we can complete your forms within 3 business days, provided we have all of the information required to complete the forms. Once complete, you will receive an email that your forms are ready. Orders with Manual D may take 2 to 4 additional business days.

How do I know which Manuals I need for my permit?

Go to the county website where you will be applying for a building permit. Under building permit requirements, it should tell you what Energy Compliance Manuals you will need for your permit.

What do I have to do to get my forms after Kalos emails me that they’re ready?

Click the link in the email. You will be redirected to our checkout page where you can choose payment by either credit card or PayPal. After you make payment online, the energy forms will automatically be made available to you on the confirmation page and in your email receipt. For more instructions, visit our pay & download help page.

What should I do if I don’t know all of the information you are asking me to provide?

Make note of the information you are unsure of in the “other project requirements” section of the Get Energy Forms order form page. Once we receive the order, we can contact you and help you provide any additional information you are unsure of.

Can you provide me with a revision even if Kalos didn’t do the original Energy Forms?

We cannot revise the original forms if they were performed by someone else. However, we can provide new forms from scratch.

Will you charge me for revisions to my forms?

If the form revision is the result of comments made by the jurisdiction plan reviewer, then we will make corrections for you promptly at no additional charge. Otherwise, owner-requested changes or construction changes will typically require a revision fee.

What are the terms and conditions I am agreeing to when using Kalos Energy Forms?

Please see our Terms and Conditions page.

After I place my order or quote, I never receive any notification.

There are a couple of things that can cause this. First, you may not have entered the correct email. If you’re sure that’s not the cause, check your spam mail. If the notifications are going to your spam folder, adjust your spam filtering to allow the files to be routed to your inbox. You can also select the notification once it shows up in your spam folder and choose “not spam” to identify Kalos as a true contact.

Can I have Kalos perform just part of what is required for permit?

If you want your A/C contractor or another energy provider to provide the Manual D for your permit, Kalos can provide the Energy Compliance Forms, Manual J, and Manual S. Conversely, Kalos does not provide Manual D based on someone else’s Energy Compliance and Manual J calculations. We would need to run our own Manual J in that instance.

Does Kalos provide site visit consultations?

Kalos does not provide site visit consultations. As a result, we do not offer Manual D for partial ductwork renovations.

I couldn’t download the Energy Forms after I made payment. What do I do?

If you received an email receipt, the link to the energy forms will be in the receipt. Otherwise, call us immediately. We can see if you made payment on our end and email the energy forms directly to you immediately.
