FAQs about EQp2 :

Municipal law requires that our building be completely smoke-free inside. It also bans smoking next to the building, but it’s not as stringent as the 25 foot LEED requirement. Do we have to make another policy that bans smoking within 25 feet?

We want to designate a smoking area less than 25 feet from an emergency exit. Is this okay since that door is rarely (if ever) used?

What if I have a zero lot line property and no control over the sidewalk?

What about vaping and e-cigarettes?

What about residential balconies?

NC-v4 EQp2:Environmental tobacco smoke control

Are there any work arounds for the Smoking Rooms especially for Airports in the Middle East?

We work on airports quite often and the location of these Airports are in the Middle East -- which everyone knows can be quite hot.

LEED V4 does not allow smoking rooms in the building and only allows outdoor smoking given the compliance with distances from openings,etc.

However, providing smoking areas outdoors in airports in the Middle East is contradicting the goal of providing Passenger Experience and thermal comfort for all the different types of people that go through these buildings. Is there a work around or an exception?


Thank you so much!
