Speakers experienced with the code development process discuss what has changed in the residential provisions from the previous edition of the International Energy Conservation Code. Unlike previous code updates, significant updates and new content will be incorporated into the new code. A few of the many changes that will be discussed include updates to the thermal envelope, revisions to duct testing, lighting efficiency improvements, and the inclusion of an additional efficiency options package and Net-Zero Appendix.
This was the eighth event in the 2020 Building Energy Code Webinar Series.
