Climate Zone 5 — What It Means for Your Santa Barbara Project
Climate Zone 5 is characterized by a transitional climate between coastal fog and inland heat. Title 24 compliance software accounts for these conditions automatically, setting the specific insulation, window, and HVAC efficiency targets your Santa Barbara project needs to meet.
