NC-v4 EQc2: Low emitting materials
For a project that has a glass fiber water tank inside the weather barrier in a utility space (not a working space), do we need to get a TVOC certificate for that tank?

Are throw rugs subject to the credit requirements?
What are the adhesives and sealants to be included in the documentation?
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?

Lourdes,
No- it does not appear a fiberglass tank (or other systems equipment) would be subject to the TVOC requirements of this general building materials/interior finishes focused credit.

Confirmed. The relevant product categories are those for floor, walls, ceilings, insulation, and (for some building types) furniture. Nothing else.
