Energy Conservation

Insulation

The energy conservation provisions of the building code require minimum standard values for insulation and window efficiency in your new home, addition or sunroom.

COMPLIANCE

In the past, compliance with the energy code required lengthy calculations.  The 2006 International Energy Conservation Code now prescribes specific insulation values and window efficiencies based on local climate conditions.

To learn more, please refer to our Energy Conservation (PDF) publication.
