Title 24 energy reports
in San Jose.
Title 24 calculations for San Jose ADUs, new homes, and residential improvements, with plan review and coordination handled by email.

A clear next step for your San Jose ADU.
LRG prepares energy reports around your actual project: the scope of work, orientation, existing conditions, proposed construction, windows, and equipment. We confirm price and turnaround after reviewing the plans.
Start with the local resources.
San José’s ADU Permit Service page explains application-package submission, revisions, and resubmittals. It also points applicants to the city’s ADU resources and Universal Checklist.
Official city resource. Review the current instructions for your property and application.
A detail to include in your email
When resubmitting, identify which plans changed and include the city’s complete energy-related comment list.
Before you send the plans.
Can you help after a San Jose ADU resubmittal?
Email the current plans, energy report, and the reviewer’s energy-related comments. We’ll identify the report work needed and confirm any cost before proceeding.
What should I send to get started?
For every service, send the full project address, scope of work, complete floor-area breakdowns, site plan, fully dimensioned floor plans drawn to scale with a window and door schedule or size callouts, exterior elevations of all sides, and cross sections. Include structural drawings if available; otherwise, structural member sizes used in our calculations will be estimated based on experience. Include any specified or preferred window U-factor and SHGC values, insulation R-values, HVAC size and type, and water-heater size and type. View the complete plan checklist →
Do you guarantee approval of the report?
Yes. We guarantee approval of the Title 24 report. Plan-check corrections are included when they are not caused by changes to the plans originally reviewed. Design changes may be required to achieve energy compliance and registry approval. The guarantee covers the Title 24 report, not approval of the entire project or issuance of a building permit.
