The published version of the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) was released earlier this year and is now under review by many municipalities across the metroplex. This edition of the IECC has many significant changes when compared to previous editions currently enforced across the State of Texas (i.e., 2015, 2018 IECC). Even if adopted with local amendments, builders will still need to plan for substantial impacts to their current energy packages. Join us as we take a deep dive into these upcoming changes so that you can prepare for the energy codes.

Topics to be covered:
• Climate Zone Changes affecting DFW
• Mandatory Requirements of the 2021 IECC
• Building Envelope Changes
• Mechanical System Changes
• Prescriptive Path
• Performance Path
• ERI Path
• State Approved Alternative Paths (i.e., HB 3215, ENERGY STAR)
• North Texas Local Amendments
