Gas code in Yukon

Yukon has adopted 2020 (CSA B149.1-20) confirmed baseline; 2025 edition (CSA B149.1:25, published March 2025) likely auto-adopted after the statutory review period — current edition not independently confirmed (Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code). The adopting authority is Government of Yukon, Community Services (Gas Burning Devices Act). Verified June 28, 2026.

Yukon adopts CSA B149.1 under the Gas Burning Devices Act and, per news release 19-109, automatically adopts future national safety-standard editions after a review period of at least six months. The 2020 edition is the confirmed baseline; because the 2025 edition was published in March 2025 (more than six months before 2026-06-28), it may already be the in-force edition, so the current edition is uncertain.

It is the specific edition of a model code (for example CSA C22.1:24 or the 2020 National Building Code) that a province has legally adopted and currently enforces. Codes are republished on roughly three-year cycles, and each jurisdiction adopts a new edition on its own schedule — often with amendments — so the edition in force varies by place and by discipline.

Not always. Many jurisdictions set a baseline edition for the whole province, but local building departments (the authority having jurisdiction, or AHJ) can amend it or enforce a different edition. Some places leave most adoption to local jurisdictions, and a few large cities run their own codes. Always confirm with your AHJ.

The Canadian Electrical Code (CSA C22.1) for electrical, the National Building, Plumbing and Fire Codes of Canada and their provincial editions for building, plumbing and fire, and CSA B149.1 for gas.

The National Research Council publishes the national model codes — building, plumbing, fire and energy — as free downloads. CSA standards such as the Canadian Electrical Code and CSA B149.1 usually have to be bought, though some provinces give free read-only access through their own portals. Each result links to the official source.
