About this appendix: Harnessing the heat or radiation from the sun’s rays is a method to reduce the energy consumption of a building. Although Appendix AT does not require solar systems to be installed for a building, it does require the space(s) for installing such systems, providing pathways for connections and requiring adequate structural capacity of roof systems to support solar systems.
Section numbers in parenthesis are those in Appendix RB of the residential provisions of the International Energy Conservation Code ® .
