FAQs about IEQc4.3 :

If I have no flooring products in the scope of my project, can I earn this credit?

How do I handle a polished concrete floor?

Should mineral-based finish flooring products (without any integral organic-based coatings and sealants) and unfinished/untreated solid wood flooring be documented on the IEQc4.3 LEED Online form, even though they are exempt from certification requirement

On a renovation, should flooring that is previously installed be subject to the credit requirements?

One flooring adhesive we are using falls under both IEQc4.1 and IEQc4.3, and is over the VOC limit. We are using the VOC budget method to meet IEQc4.1 requirements, but are we automatically disqualifed from IEQc4.3?

The credit requirements are allowed to exempt unfinished wood flooring from the credit requirements, but wood flooring is almost always finished. This is confusing!

I have an international project and my flooring products aren’t tested using any of the above standards. How can I tell if they still comply?

Hello. We have 4 technical rooms on the roof of the building where the thought is to have vinyl flooring. Do this flooring also have to meet Floorcore standard? This is outside of the weatherproofing system were only system engineers and janitor will acsess when necessary. Also wondering if it has to comply with IEQ c4.2 and 4.3? Thank you:)

Hi Hanne, If there are enclosed rooms on the roof of the building where system engineers and janitors may be how are they not under a weatherproofing system? How are they protected from the elements? EQc4.1, EQc4.2 in the LEED Reference Guide make note of only including materials inside the weatherproofing membrane but actually EQc4.3 does not. Note that there are a few ways to comply with EQc4.3 and not just FloorScore. Please take a look at the Reference Guide for additional details.
