2026 FLORIDA ENERGY CODE
What Residential Teams Should Know Now
Important changes are coming. Here are 3 areas to review before the new code takes effect.
1
Duct Testing
More projects will require duct testing depending on system and duct location.
2
Ventilation Testing
Mechanical ventilation and some exhaust systems may need added testing or documentation.
3
Compliance Path
Teams that rely on REScheck may need a different Florida energy compliance approach.
What to review now
Active projects and upcoming starts
Standard plans/models still in use
Duct, air handler, and ventilation strategy
Energy compliance assumptions
Have projects planned for late 2026 or 2027?
