LEEDuser Audit Form Custodial Assessment Worksheet

Hi Patricia, APPA distinguishes a few space categories by the type of floor in the space. For example, the Office space type is categorized by carpet floor or hard floor. Not all space types are broken out like this however, and Table IEQc3.2-1 on the LEED Credit Form can provide more information on which spaces should be scored separately based on floor type. The idea behind this is that the auditor should give a separate score for these spaces because the different floor types influence the cleaning requirements and potentially the appearance level. By scoring these spaces separately, auditors can better uncover targeted opportunities for improvement. One thing to note is that APPA doesn't get more specific than carpet floor versus hard floor, so don't worry about categorizing spaces by the specific installed flooring like wood versus tile, etc. As far as the LEEDuser audit worksheet goes, it can be useful to have a record of the floor type in each space so you can quickly and accurately transfer your APPA scores into the Credit Form. Thanks, Trista
