What Is Title 24 Inspections and Why Is It Required?
Effective July 1, 2014, California adopted the California Building Efficiency Standards. Title 24 is California’s Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Part 6 of the California Building Code). It sets minimum requirements for energy use in lighting, HVAC, envelope, and other systems.
