A Net-Zero Building Codes Acceleration Fund will further acceleration code adoption and compliance through support for market readiness for net-zero codes in provinces/territories and municipalities. Here’s more.
Airtightness testing is a critical measure needed to ensure that unintentional airflow does not cause energy losses, structural damage, or poor indoor air quality in new buildings.
Building codes are established by law in the provinces or territories in which the building will be constructed. Compliance with code falls in the purview of the city or municipality, known as the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). The AHJs must enforce
the safety, accessibility, and other objectives of code for new buildings, which requires knowledgeable resources in multiple technical disciplines. Adding in energy codes has presented some challenges for AHJs, let alone adding in potentially multiple tiers of energy compliance.
