Editions
ASHRAE 90.1-2022, 2019, 2016, 2013
Applicability
Referenced by the IECC as a compliance pathway. Adopted directly by some states and federal agencies (GSA, DOD).
What We Check For
Common Mechanical Issues We Catch
HVAC, exhaust, ventilation, and refrigeration drawings.
Why ASHRAE 90.1 Mechanical Compliance Matters
ASHRAE Standard 90.1 — Energy Standard for Buildings compliance for mechanical drawings is critical because violations discovered during plan review delay permits, and issues found during construction result in costly rework, change orders, and schedule delays. Catching ASHRAE 90.1 mechanical issues during preconstruction costs 10x less than fixing them in the field (CII, 1-10-100 Rule).
