Trouble when presten credit compliance

A narrative might not be enough as reviewers will need to cross-check the number of individual workstations with the number of reused task lights. This could be an issue if the old space had fewer individual workstations than the new space.

My recommendation: Write up a really brief narrative in the Special Circumstances section of the IEQc6.1 Credit Form which clarifies that the tenant is bringing the existing task lights from the old office for use in the new office. In the narrative, you will need to provide a count of specifically how many task lights they will be bringing over. A very formal, signed statement from the tenant shouldn't be necessary (but is always an option if easy to get from your tenant). Then just take the furniture plans and add some sort of symbol to indicate which workstations will get these reused task lights (even something as simple as a red or blue dot dropped in via photoshop to symbolize each task light). That should provide reviewers with enough information to make sure that you've accounted for all of the individual workstations and confirm that you have enough task lights to meet the credit requirements.

Hi Mathilda,

That's some great advice from Kristina and I would agree with that wholeheartedly. For the occupancy sensors in your multi-occupant spaces just please make sure to indicate that there is a manual override option to your reviewer. You have noted the dimmers so it sounds like you're on the right track.

Like Kristina said - just showing the task lights on a floor plan - will go a long way toward convincing your reviewer. It's great that you are reusing task lights!

Hi Mathilda,

Glad to help. Good luck!

Hi Mathilda,

Was this approach accepted?  I'm running into a similar issue on a project that we're about to submit for design phase review.
