NC-v4 EQc2: Low emitting materials
When trying to achieve the wall panels category,the guide states windows should be included. So we include all windows on the project??

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?

Under v4, I believe it's been clarified that exterior doors and windows are not covered by this credit. Additionally, the RG notes that they consider glass, powder-coated metals, anodized metals andplated metal as inherently non-emitting. I actually can't find the word "window" under this credit in the v4 RG. Are you maybe looking at v4.1?

Hi Rebecca - Thanks for responding. Yes, just realizing I posted this question under v4. Yes, the language is under v4.1. Here it is for the record, but I'll flip over to that forum. The wall panels product category includes all finish wall treatments (wall coverings, wall paneling, wall tile), surface wall structures such as gypsum or plaster, cubicle/curtain/partition walls, trim, interior and exterior doors, wall frames, interior and exterior windows, and window treatments.
