FAQs about IEQc4.1 :

Is there a shortcut to the VOC budget method if you have just one product that is used minimally on a project?

Do products applied to the weather barrier need to comply with VOC thresholds?

How do I determine what application my product falls under?

How is VOC % less water determined for aerosol adhesives?

Do grout and caulking need to be included, and if so, what is the application category?

Our project didn't use some common adhesive types, and our LEED reviewer asked about this. Are we supposed to justify not using certain adhesives in our documentation?

I am reviewing a submittal for duct sealant Hardcast Flex-Grip 550 which specifies a VOC limit of 75g/l (less water). In terms of SCAQMA 1168 is this product considered an architectural sealant or does this fall in the 'other' category?

There is a CIR (6/26/09) that clarified this: "Project teams may classify duct sealants under “Other”, as listed in the SCAQMD VOC Limits table."
