Verified Local Sources

Reviewed 2026-09-11. Code editions and local requirements can change; confirm the current requirements with the authority having jurisdiction before design.

Local Engineering Context

Authority Having Jurisdiction
San Francisco Department of Building Inspection (SF DBI)
Building Code
2022 CBC / San Francisco Building Code
Energy Code
2022 California Energy Code + SF local energy ordinance (Reach Codes)
Local Market
SF's tech office, restaurant, and mixed-use residential market requires MEP engineering that handles both the 2022 CEC all-electric mandates and SF's additional local reach codes.
Climate & Engineering Conditions
Zone 3C coastal; mild year-round climate strongly favors heat pump systems; cooling loads are minimal, heating loads moderate — heat pump COP is excellent year-round.
