California AB2200 allows controlled environment horticulture spaces to use thermal curtains instead of double-paned glass windows.
California AB2200 amends the Health and Safety Code to allow commercial greenhouses to use thermal curtains, thermal screens, shade cloths, or equivalent technologies instead of double-paned glass windows. This change aims to reduce costs, encourage sustainable practices, and support California's agricultural sector. The bill applies to all cities, including charter cities, and remains in effect until the next triennial update of the California Building Standards Code. The California Building Standards Code will then develop and adopt building standards for these alternative technologies.
