Title 24 is a well-known term for most California building builders. If you’re unfamiliar with the phrase, Title 24 represents a collection of energy standards that help new and altered residential properties live up to the new expectations of energy efficiency.

​

For Compliance; In order to be in compliance with the latest Title 24 standards, every home builder must submit a Title 24 report for approval. This report is a collection of forms that verify a building plan meets the energy efficiency standards introduced in 2019.

 

If a plan does not meet or exceed the requirements, it must be altered until it does. If a home builder constructs a home or makes alterations that do not meet Title 24 compliance, they could be fined by the state.
