Continuous insulation on the inside of the wall?

NC-2009 EAp2:Minimum Energy Performance
posted by  David Sheridan  on 

Our state energy code is based on ASHRAE 90.1-2004, which I believe does not require ci for exterior walls. ASHRAE 90.1-2007 requires R-3.8 ci for nonresidential walls.

Does anybody know if electric fire pumps are exempted from energy efficiency requirements? That is, from ASHRAE 90.1 section 10.4 minimum efficiency requirements for electrical motors.

Would it be correct to use the "Warehouse, storage" gross square feet per occupant in the Reference Guide for mechanical spaces, storage rooms, loading areas and restrooms of a CS building?

Response to Review Comments in v2009

LEED Reviews: Appeals, Design/Construction Submittals, and more
posted by  Sheryl Swartzle  on 

What do you do when you want to upload a response to review comments but the credit or PI form does not require any uploads thereby not providing an area to upload the response to review comments?
