FAQs about EAp2 :

Do the required savings for this prerequisite (and credit) need to come only from building energy, or also process loads?

Our project doesn't have enough energy savings to earn the prerequisite. Can we get there by incorporating onsite renewables?

Our proposed design has insulation R-values that are below those prescribed by ASHRAE 90.1-2010. Can we still meet the prerequisite?

LEED ID+C Information not available about mechanical system

Hi, 

 

I am working on an old building built in 1970s and there is no information on mechanical system availiable regarding COPs , what can I do in this case, I am sure the systems have been replaced, what assumptions can I take?

Ideally you or someone more local visits the building, takes pictures of the nameplates and you look up the equipment efficiency. Absent knowing you can assume the baseline code minimums as that would likely be a conservative estimate of savings depending upon the age of the equipment.
