The refrigerant charge is typically calculated automatically in the LEED Online submittal template. It is the relationship between how much refrigerant is needed (in pounds) and the cooling capacity (in tons) of the equipment.
Specify high-quality equipment with a dependably long lifespan. That way leakage is minimized at those times that carry the greatest risks; when the equipment is being installed or decommissioned. (For information about the service life of different types of HVAC equipment, see the 2004 ASHRAE Applications Handbook—HVAC Applications. See Resources.)
Fill in the LEED Online submittal template. Document the credit with a site plan highlighting the pedestrian route from the building entrance to the identified bus or train stop or stops. Provide a distance scale to confirm that the building entrance is within the required distance of transit—¼ mile for bus routes, ½ mile for train.
The landscape architect provides LEED documentation for submittal to LEED Online.
Provide landscape drawings.
Provide the total water applied (both for the baseline and design case) and non-potable water supply.
If using non-potable water, provide information on source, and other documents that support proof of non-potable water use.
Write a narrative describing the landscape and irrigation installed, provide detail on the calculations used, and detail about the supply and availability of non-potable water used.
Fill out the LEED Submittal Template. You will need to provide information on the blackwater source (toilet or urinal), annual quantity treated, annual quantity infiltrated onsite, annual quantity reused onsite, and plumbing drawings or other documents that detail information about the onsite treatment,
