This guide from EPA outlines everything you need to know about verifying applications for ENERGY STAR certification.
This guide from EPA outlines everything you need to know about verifying applications for ENERGY STAR certification.
This guide provides a roadmap for teams interested in continuously improving the energy performance of an existing building.
Use EPA’s Portfolio Manager to track energy use data for all sources of energy. Buildings that score a 75 or above are eligible to apply for Energy Star certification.
This is an example Energy Star Data Verification Checklist (DVC) for a hypothetical building in Oakland, CA. The DVC shows overall property information, the property use details, and 12 months of energy consumption.
To document this option, you will need to submit scaled floor plans like this one illustrating the project's exterior entrances and compliant entryway systems.
Filtration media at all outside air intakes must be MERV 13 or better. Use product cut sheets like this example to find compliant products and evaluate their energy efficiency.
Project teams can use the US EPA WaterSense program website to find WaterSense labeled products.
