ASHRAE 90.1 Section 11 and Appendix G 2019 Landing in Jan 2026

We're super excited to announce that Better Building will launch our comprehensive support for ASHRAE 90.1 Section 11 and Appendix G 2019 in January 2026!

Whilst we're not the first platform to support ASHRAE 90.1-2019 standards, we're confident we've built the smartest solution. Better Building will cut your modelling time by 50% compared to other products, both free and paid alternatives. We've reimagined the compliance workflow from the ground up to eliminate redundant tasks, automate complex calculations, and give you back valuable hours to focus on design optimisation. ‍ Here's what sets Better Building apart: you can now run both Section 11 and Appendix G compliance simultaneously. No more choosing your compliance path upfront and hoping it provides the flexibility your design needs. No more discovering late in the process that you've been working with the wrong baseline or your unmet hours have dropped out. With Better Building, explore both pathways at once and let the data guide your decision. Understand which compliance option offers the most design flexibility for your specific project before you commit.

The Game-Changing Advantage: Simultaneous Compliance Paths

Here's what sets Better Building apart: you can now run both Section 11 and Appendix G compliance simultaneously. No more choosing your compliance path upfront and hoping it provides the flexibility your design needs. No more discovering late in the process that you've been working with the wrong baseline or your unmet hours have dropped out.

The Baseline Control You Need

Better Building introduces a unique workflow for overriding baseline models to meet specific local code requirements or LEED certification criteria. Many jurisdictions have amendments to ASHRAE 90.1, and LEED projects often require specific baseline adjustments. Our intuitive override system lets you customise baseline assumptions whilst maintaining full traceability and documentation, ensuring your models meet both standard requirements and project-specific needs without starting from scratch.

Complete Feature Set

- Automated baseline system generation for both Section 11 and Appendix G - Parallel compliance processing: see both results instantly - Flexible baseline override controls for local codes and LEED - Comprehensive reporting for code officials and certification bodies - Real-time design feedback to optimise performance outcomes Better Building continues our commitment to supporting industry professionals with tools that don't just meet standards but transform how you work. Mark your calendars for January 26 and discover how we're setting a new standard for energy modelling efficiency. ‍ For more information, contact our support team.
