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.

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?

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?

Hello: We are having a difficult time finding adhesives that comply with EQc2. Does anyone have a list that of products that they spec'd and installed that are approved for v4? Thanks.

Hi- We don't have a master list, but in our research, reps from Childers and Foster (makers of mechanical and plumbing insulation adhesives and sealants) have said they don't plan to test any of their products for emissions, so none would comply with the credit.

Hello, don't know if information is relevant for you now, but we found some of the Mapei products that are compiant with LEEDv4 criterias for VOCs - they have VOC content information for their products as well as Emicode certificates, that are compliant with emmission general evaluation requirements.
