Why Climate Zone 3 Matters Here
Richmond falls within California Climate Zone 3 (Central Coast), an area defined by mild, marine-influenced conditions with minimal temperature swings. This classification directly shapes the insulation, glazing, and HVAC efficiency values used in your compliance calculation.
Estimated from proximity to the nearest CEC reference station — we confirm the exact zone for your project's address before preparing your report.
