Energy Code Now in Effect
As of August 17, 2007 the New Hampshie Energy Code has become the International
Energy Conservation Code 2006 (IECC 2006).
There is
a new application for use by residences and commercial structures under 4000 square feet.
This application is available for download above.
If you wish to use the software approach to prove compliance of commercial structures with the code only COMcheck version 3.5.2 with the “Code” set to “ New Hampshire” may be used.

NOTE: Any project to be constructed in New Hampshire must meet the requirements of Climate Zone 6 per amendment of the Building Code Review Board. See: http://www.nh.gov/safety/boardsandcommissions/bldgcode/meetings/documents/min101207.pdf
The
Commercial Energy Code is now IECC 2006. (Chapter 5 also refers
to ASHREA 90.1-2004). To demonstrate compliance use COMcheck Software Version 3.5.2 with the “Code” set to “New Hampshire”. Submit the COMcheck printout to the
municipality where construction is planned.
The Public Utilities Commission does not issue commercial
energy code permits for structures greater than 4,000
sq. ft. Small commercial under 4,000 sq. ft. may use the residential
energy code EC-1 form.
