CI-v4 EQc2: Low emitting materials
Hi, I am completing the VOC calculator, but if I put a product with the maximum allowed value it does not comply. For example if they ask for 70 and my product has 70 for v4 is not fulfilling? Why? What should be done?
Thank you

The formula in the calculator appears to be set up for less than rather than less than or equal to. However, only 90% by volume need to comply, so if most of your wet-applied products are well under the limit you will still comply. If that's not the case, it's worth reaching out to USGBC.
