Title 24 Reports for Essex Permits
Essex is part of San Bernardino County, and like every California jurisdiction, its building department requires energy compliance documentation before issuing most permits.
Essex's designation as Climate Zone 15 reflects extreme heat for most of the year with very high cooling loads, a factor our energy models account for when calculating your compliance margin.
All of our Essex Title 24 reports are formatted for direct submittal to your local building department, whether through an online permit portal or in-person plan check. Contact us to confirm the exact department name and submittal process for your specific project address.

Climate Zone 15 — What It Means for Your Essex Project
Climate Zone 15 is characterized by extreme heat for most of the year with very high cooling loads. Title 24 compliance software accounts for these conditions automatically, setting the specific insulation, window, and HVAC efficiency targets your Essex project needs to meet.
Climate zone shown is an estimate based on Essex's proximity to the nearest California Energy Commission reference station. We confirm the exact zone for your project's specific address before preparing your report — or check it yourself using the CEC's official lookup tool.
