NC-2009 IEQc6.2:Controllability of Systems—Thermal Comfort

How to reconcile IEQc6.1 and 6.2 Forms for residential spaces?

The Space Matrix says for residential spaces, each unit needs one thermostat, and the location does not matter. For lighting, we need at least one switch per room. So how do we reconcile the spaces on the forms? If we list the exact same spaces we have for 6.1 (bedrooms, kitchen, living space) in the 6.2 form, it appears we have an inadequate number of thermostats. Any suggestions? Thanks!

im wondering the exact same thing - but posted under the 6.1 credit. Still waiting on help. I also emailed USGBC with question... if I get an answer i'll share here as well.

Hi Erica and Michael, The current forms do not have residential-specific information. I suggest using the special circumstances section of the form for your project.

thanks, i have a follow up question. on IEQc6.2, i checked "special circumstances" and filled out explanation. but then after saving form, when I hit "check compliance" - it still shows "0". do I just have to submit it with the "0", even though I expect the 1 point?

Hi Michael, exactly, submit the form even though it is showing 0 for points documented.
