Our project is a factory that produces roofing products, we target LEED v4 silver. The building consists of an office space, a manufacturing space and a storage space. The manufacturing process requires chilled water and we would like to know if this equipment might be considered in the scope of this credit. From my point of view, it doesn't. This equipment is not part of the scope of works supervised by the HVAC engineer and will be installed directly by our client (who manufactures roof products).

Any ideas ?

Thanks !

Regards

Any equipment with more than 0.5 pounds (225 grams) of refrigerant must be addressed by the credit regardless of whether the equipment is part of the HVAC system or serves other manufacturing processes.
