Mechanical insulation in federal audits
If enacted, this bill would add a definition of "mechanical insulation property" to federal energy law. The definition would cover insulation materials, facings, and accessory products used with mechanical systems. Insulation would have to meet or exceed ASHRAE Standard 90.1 as of the enactment date and reduce energy loss. The bill would require federal energy and water audits to identify energy- and water-saving measures, including mechanical insulation when applicable. This could lead to more insulation projects in federal buildings and more work for contractors and suppliers.
