FAQs about EQc2 :

Is all solid wood considered inherently non-emitting? I’ve seen sources that say only solid wood flooring counts as inherently non-emitting.

Is there a VOC budget method for this credit?

What are the limits on the VOC budget method?

Do products applied to the weather barrier need to comply with VOC thresholds? 

If one part of my multicomponent wall system is not compliant, can I still get full credit?

Our building is atypical, and the walls and ceilings are not clearly defined. How should we classify these components? 

Are throw rugs subject to the credit requirements?

If a ceramic tile receives a top coat after it is manufactured, is it exempt from the credit requirements?

What are the adhesives and sealants to be included in the documentation?

I'm looking for a certification that tells me if a given product will meet the LEED v4 requirements, but I don't see one in a given product area. Am I missing something?

When products claim that they meet California Section 01350, does the product also meet LEED v4 requirements for low-emitting materials?

How do I know if a product complies with LEED v4 or if it was tested under an older non-compliant standard?

In past versions of LEED, it was easy to specify VOC limits. Is the specification process the same for LEED v4?

NC-v4 EQc2:Low emitting materials

Solid Surfacing Materials in LEED v4

Are solid surfacing materials considered in this credit under furniture? We have several project where it is being used for counter tops and even table tops and sometimes interior wall covering/cladding. How and where should these materials be addressed for this credit in LEED v.4?

Furniture is generally assumed to be free standing furniture. If your solid surface falls under that category, i.e. part of a work station, then it would apply to the ANSI/BIFMA Furniture Evaluation. However inclusion of furniture is optional for this credit. For interior wall covering/cladding it would apply to the Walls category General Emissions Evaluation.
