Iowa HF2549 mandates mechanical insulation energy audits for state buildings by January 1, 2028, and every four years thereafter.

Iowa HF2549 requires the Department of Administrative Services to contract with a certified technician to perform mechanical insulation energy audits for each state-owned building. These audits must identify missing and damaged mechanical insulation, assess compliance with American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers Standard 90.1, estimate emissions released and energy lost due to damaged and missing mechanical insulation, and provide an estimate for the cost of remediation. The audits are required by January 1, 2028, and every four years thereafter.
