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?

If a product meets the SCAQMD 1168 rule, does that mean it passes the requirements of CDPH v1.1?

No, they are different. To 'way over-simplify, the SCAQMD 1168 rule is based on the volume of VOCs in the product as mixed; the CDPH chamber test measures the volume of VOCs off-gassing from the material over a fixed period of time in a sealed chamber.
