See how to convert a 2016 energy model to comply with 2019 California Residential Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6 or the Energy Code). Energy Code Ace host Brian Selby demonstrates with a single-family new construction project in EnergyPro version 8.

Key topics include how to:
* Add a Solar PV system and battery storage
* Update envelope specifications
* Update heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) and domestic hot water (DHW or water heating) system measures
* Review the EDR compliance metric, first used in the 2019 Residential Energy Code
* Check the CF1R for accuracy.

Can you go over the Attic Home - column 3. It shows ventilated and or unventilated. What does that signify?

I am 18 years old and want to learn how to obtain Title 24 forms. I’ve been on my first project for about 2 days trying to figure out the program but I need some help. I am doing a report for a brand new ADU. I keep on following your videos on how to do this but I always get a non usable report since my proposed Heating, Cooling, and DHV calculations are a lot bigger than the standard calculations. I believe that this is happening because the new ADU is only using a wall furnace and is using no cooling system yet I can’t find the setting to take the cooling system off. Any help would be appreciated thanks.
