(The 2015 International Energy Conservation Code has already been adopted.) The electrical (2014 NEC), plumbing (2015 IPC) and fuel-gas (2015 IFGC) codes are adopted at the State level. At this time the requirement for fire sprinklers in all single-family dwellings is expected to be amended out of the IRC. Other amendments will be minimal and consistent with current amendments.

This is a big step up from the 2006 codes now in effect. The good people at Colorado Code Consulting, LLC, with offices in Denver, Colorado Springs, and Frisco, put together a list of significant changes, between the 2009 and 2015 editions of each code, for the City of Denver. The City of Denver is sharing this resource with other Colorado jurisdictions. Many of you are already familiar with the 2009 I-codes from working in surrounding jurisdictions. These documents will be a good place to start in making the transition.
