BC Energy Step Code Compliance Performance Path for Part 9 Buildings
What is the BC Energy Step Code?
The Step Code is a new provincial standard in the BC Building Code that provides an incremental and consistent approach to achieve energy-efficient construction.
Through performance modelling and on-site testing, buildings constructed to Step Code standards will exceed the energy performance requirements of the base BC Building Code.
If you’re building a home in British Columbia and need a Pre-Construction Compliance Report to apply for your building permit, call us today. We have a quick turnaround and will be there for you every step of the way. This includes mid-construction and the as-built compliance report that you’ll need to get your occupancy permit.
