Single family dwellings - 9.36

National Building Code 2019 Edition Section 9.36, Energy Efficiency

The energy efficiency requirements in Section 9.36 of the National Building Code 2019 Alberta Edition were developed by the National Research Council and Natural Resources Canada to improve the energy efficien​cy of Canadian buildings and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Before you start

Section 9.36 of the  National Building Code 2019 Alberta Editioncovers the principal building components and systems in a house or small building, including the building envelope, heating and hot water systems. It applies to small buildings, which are defined in Clause 9.36.1.3 of the  National Building Code 2019 Alberta Edition.

Please review the User Guide or call our offices if you need help completing the

  • Efficiency Project Summary Worksheet (for all three compliance options)
  • Project Summary - Performance Compliance Calculation Report (for the Performance Compliance option).

Compliance

Parkland County will review new building plans to verify compliance with Section 9.36.

The compliance paths you choose must be indicated on your completed 9.36 project summary form and submitted at the time of building permit application. The 9.36 project summary guide provides assistance on completing this form.
