On "ASHRAE Strengthens Standard 90.1 Foundation"

ASHRAE tightening 90.1 again means your design specs and bid sheets are getting more complicated, and the code adoption lag in Jersey means you'll be stuck supporting two standards on job sites for the next five years. The real issue isn't the efficiency push—it's that every code cycle forces you to retrain crews, update templates, and explain to customers why their quote went up when the rule book changed. Plan for equipment costs to climb and for GCs to shift compliance burden onto your neck. This isn't energy policy, it's a maintenance tax on your business.
