Learn More About Complying With The New Energy Code

COMcheck is Oregon's new method of compliance for the 2010 Oregon Energy Efficiency Specialty Code (OEESC). COMcheck was developed to clarify and simplify commercial building energy code compliance. The materials focus on Oregon specific code requirements that apply to all commercial buildings and offer a streamlined process for demonstrating code-equivalent levels of energy efficiency. Contractors and designers who use COMcheck can save time and effort in documenting code compliance.

COMcheck offers an easy-to-understand process for demonstrating compliance with all commercial energy code requirements for envelope, interior and exterior lighting, and mechanical systems. It eliminates calculation tasks other than determining square footages and requires no specialized technical knowledge of commercial codes. When applied to simple buildings, it is self-contained, requiring no additional resources or reference books. Finally, COMcheck uses terminology familiar to the design, construction and enforcement communities.

To learn more about using the COMcheck software consider taking the Web based class scheduled for August 19. Register today to better understand this new OEESC compliance method.
