The previous version of CPG also says "and". For an international project I would think that if you can demonstrate that it meets...

Hello everyone,

I'm working in a smal project (just 2 floors) that is naturally ventilated overall.
The thing is that we're thinking about installing air conditioning equipment for...

What if no fan/pump motors are greater than or equal to 5 hp?

Option 1 of this credit states that all motors 5 hp and greater must have VFDs that decrease fan power to 30%. If none of the installed fan motors are 5 hp or greater, can this credit be...

Marcus Sheffer LEED Fellow 7group / Energy Opportunities LEEDuser Expert 5867 thumbs up December 31, 2013- 11:31 am You can get credit for an efficient central plant. There are also scenarios in the modeling protocol to get credit for envelope improvements in some cases. The baseline system is defined by Section 11 or Appendix G in all cases. The best guidance on how to do this modeling is in the ID+C Reference Guide so do not rely on this forum for definitive guidance in all cases. This especially applies to any advice i may have provided.:-) Log in or register to post comments ...
