Homes-v4 EAp1:Minimum energy performance

Slab / Floor Insulation, is it mandotary

Hi,

For the prerequisite requirement to add R-19 insulation to floor / slab under energystar, is it required on every floor?
Knowing that all floors are airconditioned,

The team doesn't find the need to insulate floors / slabs as long as it separates two conditioned spaces, which we kind of agree also..
Any thoughts?

Consult your 301 ERI Rater but no, that is only applying to the slab floors, not inbetween units.
