How Does the New Energy Code Impact You?

By Melissa Beber, Government Affairs Coordinator


The Chamber is hosting an issue forum on the impact the new Indiana Energy Code has on business. Dan Gagen of Project Design & Management will present an overview of the new code, explain how it is applied to efforts on existing buildings, and identify specific areas that will impact the design, construction, and cost of new facilities.


The new regulations could increase the cost of a project by requiring new windows and doors, replacing the heating/air system, new ducting, and possibly a new roof. Anyone constructing a new building, adding on to an existing facility, or renovating a building needs to hear how the new regulations could affect their project. 


The issue forum is on Tuesday, August 3rd from 8:00 to 10:30 a.m. at the Fort Wayne Chamber. The cost is only $10 for members and $15 for non-members. This issue forum is too important to miss! So register today at fwchamber.org or contact me for more information.
