SPECIAL FEATURES AND MODELING ASSUMPTIONS
*** Items in this section should be documented on the plans, ***
*** installed to manufacturer and CEC specifications, and ***
*** verified during plan check and field inspection. ***
This building incorporates a HERS verified Refrigerant Charge test
or a HERS verified Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV). If a
cooling system is not installed, then HERS verification is not necessary.
This building incorporates HERS verified Duct Leakage.
This is a multiple orientation building. This printout is for the front
facing North.
This building incorporates a Radiant Barrier.
HERS REQUIRED VERIFICATION
*** Items in this section require field testing and/or ***
*** verification by a certified home energy rater under ***
*** the supervision of a CEC-approved HERS provider using ***
*** CEC approved testing and/or verification methods and ***
*** must be reported on the CF -4R installation certificate. ***
This building incorporates a HERS verified Refrigerant Charge test
or a HERS verified Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV). If a
cooling system is not installed, then HERS verification is not necessary.
This building incorporates HERS verified Duct Leakage. Target leakage is
calculated and documented on the CF -4R. If the measured CFM is above the
target, then corrective action must be taken to reduce the duct leakage and
then must be retested. Alternatively, the compliance calculations could be
redone without duct testing. If ducts are not installed, then HERS
verification is not necessary.
REMARKS

Notes:
1. Continuous insulation shall be located at the ceiling, below the bottom chord of the truss and be uninterrupted by framing.
2. In climate zones 1 and 16 the insulating R -value of continuous insulation materials installed above the roof waterproof membrane shall
be multiplied times 0.8 before choosing the table column for determining assembly U -factor.
This table contains thermal performance data (U -factors) for wood framed attics where the ceiling provides
the air barrier and the attic is ventilated. Wood trusses are the most common construction for low-rise
residential buildings and for Type V nonresidential buildings. While the sketch shows a truss system with a
flat ceiling, the data in this table may be used for scissor trusses and other non -flat trusses. If the bottom
chord is not flat, then the slope should not exceed 3:12 if blown insulation is used. This table may also be
used with composite trusses that have a wood top and bottom chord and metal struts connecting them.
For the majority of cases, values will be selected from column A of this table. Column A shall be used for the
common situation where either batt or blown insulation is placed directly over the ceiling (and tapered at the
edges). Builders or designers may increase thermal performance by adding a continuous insulation layer at
the ceiling. The continuous insulation is typically a rigid polystyrene or polyisocyan u rate foam insulation.
Continuous insulation does not include the blown or batt insulation that is over the bottom chord of the truss
(this is already accounted for in the U -factors published in Column A).
When this table is used manually, the R -value of continuous insulation shall be equal to or greater than the
R -value published in the continuous insulation columns. For instance if the insulation is R-3, the R-2 column
shall be used. No interpolation is permitted when data from the table is selected manually. CEC approved

Title 24 2005 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Residential Manual Excerpt
Radiant Barrier Construction Practice
To qualify, a radiant barrier must have an emittance of 0.05 ,or less. The product
must be tested according to ASTM C-1371-98 or ASTM E408-71(2002) and
must be certified by the Department of Consumer Affairs2. Radiant barriers must
also meet installation criteria as specified in Section 4.2.1 of the Residential
ACM Manual (Section 4.2.1 is also reproduced in Appendix ,D of this document).
The most common way of meeting the radiant barrier requirement is, to use roof
sheathing that has a radiant barrier bonded to it in 'factory. Oriented strand
bo (OS s the most com c n r teRal available.With a factory -applied
ra i b i a install w ra is ier (shiny side)
fa n t w is s ce It naPiely radi crier material that
m is s ST t a moi to por n re ire ents that apply to
fa ry- mi t n -I in to iel lamina ' _ must use a secure
mechanical means of holding the foil to the bottom of the roof decking such as
staples or nails that do not penetrate all the way through the roof deck material.
Other acceptable methods are to drape a foil type radiant barrier over the top of
the top chords before the sheathing is installed, stapling the radiant barrier
between the top chords after the sheathing is installed, and stapling the radiant
barrier to the underside of the truss/rafters (top chord). For these installation
methods, the foil must be installed with spacing requiremen-s as described in
Section 4.2.1 of the Residential ACM Manual.. The min imu m spacing
requirements do not apply to this installation since it is- consydered a "laminated"
system.
Installation of radiant barriers is somewhat more challenging in the,case of
closed rafter spaces when sheathing is installed that does not include a
laminated foil. Foil may be field -laminated after the sheathinghas been installed
by "laminating" the foil as described above to the roof sheat"ling between
framing members. This construction type is described in the Residential ACM
Manual, Section 4.2.1.

§116(a)2 and §116(a)3
Table 116-A
Table 116-8
Manufactured Fenestration Products. The mandatory measures. require that
both the U -factor and the SHGC of manufactured fenestration products be
determined from NFRC's Certified Product Directory or from Energy
iris -approved default bl . ARhe time of in�ection, the actual
st U- n v es s s n Is or in the

contained in Standards Table 1,16-13 (also in Appendix B of this compliance
manual). A directory of NFRC certified ratings is available at
htto://www.NFRC.ora.
Commission default values in both Tables 116-A and 116-B are on the poor side
of the performance range for windows. To get credit for advanced window
features such as low -e (low -emissivity) coatings.and thermal break frames, the
window manufacturer must have the window tested, labeled, and certified
according to NFRC procedures. Figure 3-1 shows an example of an NFRC-
approved temporary fenestration label.
i
Requiring that SHGC and U -factor be calculated using a common procedure
ensures that the performance data for fenestration products are more accurate
and that data provided by different manufacturers can be more easily compared.
The test procedure for LI -factor is NFRC 100, and the test procedure for SHGC
is NFRC 200.

Residential Lighting - Mandatory Measures
High Efficacy Luminaires
A luminaire is the lighting industry's term for light fixture. A luminaire consists of
the housing, power supply (ballast), lamp, reflector, and in same cases a lens. A
lamp is the lighting industry's term for a light bulb. Luminaires can be designed
to be recessed into the ceiling, suspended by a rod or chain. or surface mounted
thew r ceiling. o
h i cy it th tai high lamps and must
t i c i al ( di ) as sock ically, high
tc IUTin i n ed c ts, I e co�r linear fluorescent
lamp sockets, though other types such as screw sockets specifically rated for
high intensity discharge lamps (like metal halide lamps) may also be eligible for
exterior use. Luminaires with modular components that allow conversion
between screw -based and pin -based sockets without chang.ng the luminaire
housing or wiring shall not be considered high efficacy lumiraires. These
requirements prevent low efficacy lamps being retrofitted in high efficacy
luminaires. Also, compact fluorescent luminaires with permanently installed
ballasts that are capable of operating a range of lamp wattages, the highest
operating input wattage of the rated lamp/ballast combination must be use for
determining the luminaire wattage.
There -are two qualifying requirements for a high efficacy luminaire: that the
lumens permatt for the lamp be above a.specified threshold .and that electronic
ballasts be used in certain applications.

luminaires with high intensity discharge (HID) lamps (like metal halide or high-
pressure sodium) containing hardwired electromagnetic HID ballasts with HID
rated medium base sockets and lamps meeting the minimum efficacy
requirements in Table 6-1 are considered high efficacy.
At the present time, pin'based compact fluorescent lamps tha.` are operated with
electronic ballasts typically have four -pin lamp holders. Pin -based compact
fluorescent lamps with two -pin lamp holders typically will indicate that the ballast

Lumens per Watt
The lumen is the unit of visible light. To be rated as high efficacy, a lamp must
produce a certain number of lumens for each watt of electrical power it
consumes. Efficacy. is therefore measured in lumens per watt..
Almost all fluorescent lamps equipped with electronic ballasts qualify as high
i efficacy light sources; incandescent lamps (including any screw in incandescent
lamps, like regular `A' or reflector lamps, or quartz halogen lamps, or low voltage
i lamps, like halogen MR lamps) do not. To be classified as high efficacy, a lamp

I such as LEDs you should check with the lamp manufacturer a. -id provide
documents showing that the lamp meets the requirements.
To calculate the efficacy of a lamp, find out from the manufact icer flow many
lumens it produces, then divide this number by the rated wattage of the lamp.
Do not inc a any wafts consumed by the ballaR.
Permanently Installed Luminaires
! The Standards require that all
eq permanently installed luminaires he high efficacy
as defined by the Standards, with some exceptions described lat<?r in this
chapter. Permanently installed luminaires include, but are not limited to those
luminaires installed in, on, or hanging from the ceilings or walls (including ceiling
I fan lights); in or on built-in cabinets (including kitchen, nook, wet bar, and other
built-in cabinets); and those mounted to the outside of the buildings.

Kitchens
§IWk)2.
The Standards define a residential kitchen to be °a room or area ;used for food
storage and preparation and washing dishes including associated counter tops
and cabinets, refrigerator, stove, oven, and floor areas." The definition goes on
to say, 'Adjacent areas are considered kitchen if the lighting for tie adjacent

A design recommendation may be to utilize the Illuminating Engi,-ieering Society
of North America (IESNA) guidelines that at least 30 footcandles of light be
provided for seeing tasks in kitchens. Seeing tasks include, but are not limited
to, the basic kitchen tasks as preparing meals and washing dishes. These tasks
typically occur on accessible kitchen countertops, the tops of ranges and in
sinks, where food preparation, recipe reading, cooking, cleaning and related
meal .preparation activities take place, as well as at the front of ktchen cabinets
so that the contents of the cabinet are discemable. Although the design should
achieve 30 footcandles on most counter -height, horizontal work :surfaces, there
may be a few work surfaces where the lighting levels fall below this value and
the fronts of kitchen cabinets may also be below this value. Even in these
locations; the lighting level provided should not fall below the IESNA-
recommended lower value for non-critical seeing tasks of 20 foo, -candles.' Parts
of counters that are not work surfaces, such as a corner underneath a cabinet,
may have a lighting level below 20 footcandles and still meet the requirements
of the standard, because meal preparation is unlikely to occur in,those areas.

Kitchen Lighting Worksheet, Appendix A, which is completed to determine if
kitchen lighting complies with the Standards.
Non -high efficacy luminaires must be switched on a separate circuit from the
high efficacy luminaires. These could include low -voltage ha Ogen MR lamps or
reflector lamps used to provide decorative spotlighting.
Lighting in areas adjacent to the kitchen, such as dining and nook areas and
even family rooms, is considered to be kitchen lighting if it isnot separately
switched from the kitchen lighting. The switches may be mounted on the same
faceplate, but as long as the lights can be switched independently, these areas
do not count as being in the -kitchen.

A bathroom is a room containing a shower, tub, toilet, or a sink that is used for
personal hygiene.

More than one circuit of luminaires may be attached to the:same manual -on
occupant sensor. At least one high -efficacy luminaire should be installed so
that it can be left off the occupant sensor circuit to ensure fiat all of the
luminaires don't switch off while someone is in the bath. Even dual technology
sensors may not detect a motionless and silent occupant.
Garages, laundry rooms and utility rooms can be lit entirely- by high efficacy
lighting. Linear fluorescent luminaires are typically between 1.5 and 4 times as
efficient as CFLs, and should be used unless there is insufficient space.
Luminaires should be mounted close to washer/dryer hookups and over work
surfaces to ensure shadow -free illumination.
Garages present an opportunity to reduce energy use by providing task lighting.
The end of the garage furthest from the door to the house is often used as a
work area, and can be provided with high efficacy luminaires switched
separately from the rest of the space.

Many people commonly add their own portable lighting. Unfortunately, portable
lighting often means highly inefficient incandescent floor -standing luminaires that
can consume 190 watts or more for older lamps.
Permanently installed lighting should reduce the need for su,-h high wattage
portable sources by creating variations of light throughout tha room, and by
reducing areas of shadow. To achieve this, use several lumilaires rather than a.
single luminaire; wall -mounted uplights are a good choice because they are
design -neutral and can be repainted. For high-end properties, linear fluorescent
cove lighting and other forms of concealed lighting may increase. marketability.
People like to control the appearance of their rooms; providing separate
switches for each luminaire will make,the space more attractive to tenants and
Will allow them to reduce their energy use.

Outdoor Lighting
§1Wk)6
Outdoor lighting attached to a building must be high efficacy or controlled by a
motion sensor with integral photocontrol. Motion sensors used in conjunction
with outdoor lighting luminaires should have the capability of turning the lights on
automatically. Lighting around swimming pools, water features, or other
locations subject to Article 680 of the California Electric Code are exempt.
Section 119 (b) requires control devices, including motion sensors and

status signal, as long as the lamp fails in the off position. The intention of this
requirement is that if the photocell or motions sensor fails the luminaire will not
tum on until the control is fixed.
Amalgam CFLs perform better at both very high and very low temperatures than
non -amalgam versions, so are appropriate for outdoor lighting, although they
can take a few minutes to reach full output. If instant start is important and
temperatures may be low, specify a cold -weather -rated ballast. Alternatively, an
incandescent source (fitted with a combination photocontrolanotion sensor) may
j be a good choice.
Decorative landscape lighting that is not permanently attached to buildings is not
regulated by the Standards. Even though it is not required by the Standards,
using a time clock or photocontrol on outdoor lighting not attached to buildings
will help to prevent people accidentally leaving these lights on during the day
and reduce energy use.

Residential Manual -On Occupant Sensors
In bathrooms, garages, laundry rooms, and utility rooms, manual -on / automatic -
off occupant sensors are allowed as an alternate compliance option to high
efficacy lighting. Manual -on / automatic -off occupant sensors automatically turn .
lights off if an occupant forgets to turn them off when a room is unoccupied.
Additionally, these sensors should readily provide the occupant with the option
of turning the lights off manually upon leaving the room. This option should be
available without having to remove the switchplate or any other modifications to
thi ensor. he manual—off fe ur is �itical becau it provides the occupants
wi e i iii nt ig ting;nv' nt�o tisfaction, and

w nt ya n d.
I
Occupant sensors must be "manual -on", i.e., the sensors must not have the
ability to turn the lights on automatically and must not have a setting that can
leave the lights in a permanent -on position. If a manual -on occupant sensor has
an on/off switch to put the sensor into a temporary programming mode, the
on/off programming switch must automatically switch off (for example, within 15
minutes) in the event the end user or installer leaves it in the programming
mode.
Some models of occupant sensors have the capability to be changed by the
occupant to "automatic -on" by removing the switchplate or touchplate and
i changing switch settings. These occupant sensors are acceptable as long as
the mechanism to switch settings is not visible to the occupant, cannot be easily
accessed without the removal of a switchplate or touchplate, and as long as they
are delivered to the building site and installed with the "manual -on" setting.
Occupant sensors usually have built-in switches or dials that allow adjustment of
the time de y between the last sensing of occupAcy and when the lights are

Some occupant sensors have m imum load requirements. For example, an
occupant sensor may require that bulbs rated over 25 watts be installed before
the sensor will work. However, if an occupant later installs a screw-in compact
fluorescent lamp that is rated less than 25 watts, the sensor wit no longer work
It is critical to select a sensor that has a low enough minimum load requirement
to accommodate however small a load the'occupant may install into the socket.
i . Another solution would be to install an occupant sensor that does not have
minimum load requirements.

Title 242005 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Residential Manual Excerpt

The sensors that have a minimum load requirement are typically the ones that
are designed to operate without a groundwire in the switch box which were
common wiring scheme in the older residential units. Commercial grade
sensors and all other sensors that are designed to take advantage of the
groundwire in the switch box typically do not have a minimum load requirement
and are the preferred choice to meet the requirements of the Standards.
If you are.trying to control a lighting fixture from two different switches you will

One of. the alternate options to high efficacy lighting in rooms other than
kitchens, bathrooms, garages, laundry rooms, and utility rooms is the use of
dimmers.
It is important to correctly match the dimmer with the type of lighting load that is
being dimmed. Failure to correctly match the dimmer with the electrical lighting
load may result in early equipment failure, including the dimmer, transformer,
ballast, or lamp.
Dimmer manufacturers typically offer three basic types of incandescent
dimmers: Line voltage (120 volt), low -voltage for use with a magnetic
transformer, and low -voltage for use with an electronic transformer. Line voltage
incandescent lamps, including tungsten -halogen lamps, can easily be dimmed
over their full range of output with voltage control or phase control (electronic)
dimmers. Tungsten -halogen lamps can be dimmed with conventional
incandescent dimmers, generally without any�pecial considerations. When

All fluorescent lamps 1 watt or greater, with electronic bal acts,
the minimum lumens per watt already comply with Standards. Even though high
efficacy fluorescent lamps with electronic ballasts do not require dimmers to
meet Standards, dimmers are permitted to be used with fluorescent lighting
systems. Most fluorescent lamps cannot be properly dimmed with the same
simple wallbox devices typically jused for dimming incandescent lamps. A
special control and dimming ballast must be used. Some types of screw-in
compact fluorescent lamps with integral ballasts can"be dimmed by simple
controls. However, many screw-in compact fluorescent lamps cannot be
dimmed at all.

by a certified HERS rater. An access door (or removable panel) is not required if
the TXV is in a readily accessible location. Readily accessible means capable of
being reached quickly for operation, repair, or inspection, without requiring ,
j climbing or removing obstacles or resorting to access equipment. The body of
the TXV can be anywhere that is warmer than the location of the sensing bulb
(including outside the plenum). It is preferable that the refrigerant manifold be
close to the TXV body.
Option 2: Visually verify that a sensing bulb is running from inside the unit and
that it is visible outside of the unit. You do not need to open the unit to complete
this verification. Please note that the sensing bulb will be attached to the suction
line and should be covered by insulation. You will need to verify the sensing bulb
by either removing sufficient insulation to see it or by feel.
Option 3: This option is designed to allow a rater to verify a TXV based upon
manufacturer's nameplate data. To use this option three steps must be

Step Two: Determine that the manufacturer's nameplate on the, coil indicates
that a TXV has been factory installed. The rater may ask for clarification of the
nameplate information from the distributor.
Step Three: Verifythat the nameplate information on each unit being inspected
indicates that a TXV has been installed in that unit.

ROOF SHEATHING INSTALLATION
These nine steps are necessary:
1. Always check for uniform rafter alignment.
2. Provide adequate roof ventilation according to building code
in your area.
3. Panel spacing on ends and edges should be 1/8"
4. Place TechShieldTm radiant barrier sheathing panels with the foil side
facing down on the roof, (toward the attic air space).
5. Fasten the panels a minimum of G' on center at supported panel ends
and edges, and 12" on center at intermediate supports;
8d nails are recommended.
6. Protect TechShield panels from moisture prior to and
during installation.
7. Use shingle underlayment (or #15 roofing felt) to cover roof as soon as
possible to protect panels from exposure to adverse weather conditions.
Use #30 roofing felt if construction delays are anticipated.
8. Allow sheathing to adjust to atmospheric conditions before shingle
installation. Heavier weight or textured shingles are recommended over
lightweight fiberglass shingles.
9. Install all panels with APA, LP and TechShield sheathing trademarks
DOWN.
TechShield sheathing can be used as a radiant barrier on gables and walls to
reduce solar gain in these areas. This is particularly true for southern exposure
exterior home surfaces that can absorb heat from prolonged exposure to the
sun.

GABLE INSTALLATION
Using TechShield sheathing in this application will add to the benefits associ-
ated with utilizing TechShield sheathing in roof sheathing applications.
As with the installation of TechShield sheathing on roofs, it is important that
the TechShield sheathing is installed with the foil side facing into the attic.
WALL INSTALLATION
In a brick wall application, TechShield sheathing's foil surface should face the
exterior of the home (out). This gives TechShield sheathing the required air
space between the brick and the wall.
In a siding application, TechShield sheathing's foil surface should face the
exterior of the home (out). Use furring strips to create a separation between
the foil and the siding. This gives TechShield sheathing the required air space
between the siding and the wall.
TechShield Radiant Barrier Sheathing should not be substituted as a house -
wrap as it does not work as a vapor barrier. Refer to local building codes for
specifics on housewrap requirements.

Installation Instructions
Score TechShield® radiant barrier sheathing panels in a clean, dry area. Do not store
in direct contact with the ground. Protect TechShield radiant barrier sheathing from moisture prior to
and during installation. Outside storage, if necessary, requires panels to be covered with plastic sheets
or tarpaulins with the sides loosely covered to provide adequate air ventilation.
Handle TechShield radiant barrier sheathing panels as you would other APA-rared LP sheathing panel
products. Be careful not to drop on corners or crush panel edges. Keep panels well supported and
neatly stacked to prevent warping. Use caution to avoid damage to the radiant barrier foil surface.
Radiant barriers may interfere with attic-mounred antenna reception.
Temperature studies are available from LP upon request.
INSTALLATION
For best results on installation, follow installation instructions carefully. TechShield radiant barrier
sheathing panels are an engineered wood product, subject to wood's inherent qualities of natural
expansion and contraction resulting from changes in moisture content and temperature.

TechShield radiant barrier sheathing is
an ease, cost-effective way to upgrade
a homE; increase its energy efficiency in
hot weather climates and/or create a
more comfortable living environment.
Consumers view TechShield
as an energy -wise investment.
Consumers have made it clear that they
are willing to pay extra for energy-efficient
upgradEs. They see TechShield's benefits
as an indicator of building quality that
will increase any home's value. That
means homes built with TechShield have
an extrE selling advantage in a
compet.tive marketplace.
Here's
why it
works
Aluminum isagreat
conductor, iztisan even greater
reflector. Tie thin aluminum sheet
laminated :o the sheathing has a property called 'low
emissivity' that blocks or reflects back abut up to
396 of the Prat transmitted down through the
sheathing ey conduction. The lower the emissivity of
a material,' the better it blocks heat. The emissivity
ofTechShidd radiant barrier is < 0. 05, which is very
effective. Udike other radiant barriers, TechShield
is thefirstpatented, laminated radiant barrier system.
Its dengn urs tiny patented irursiow in the aluminum
to allow the panel to acclimate faster at your job site.
You get outstanding panel performance with
TechShieldthat makes your homes stand out.
