The radiant barrier is a reflective material that reduces radiant heat transfer caused by solar heat gain in the roof. Radiant barriers reduce the radiant gain to air distribution duds and insulation located below the ratfiant barrier. In the performance approach, radiant barriers are modeledd as separate adjustments to the heating U -factor and the cooling U - factor. The dud efficiency is also affected by the presence of a radiant barrier, with the performance approach. 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 61379-98 or ASTM E408-71(2002) and must be certified by the Department of Consumer Affairs'-. Radiant barriers must also meet installation criteria as specified in Residential Appendices RA422 (Section RA4.22 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 the fadcxy. oriented sward board (OSB) is the most c orrumn material available with a factoryappried radiant barrier- The sheathing is installed with the radiant barrier (shiny side) facing down toward the attic spare. Alternatively, a radiant barrier material that meets the same ASTM test and moisture perforation requirements that apply to fact+ory- taminated foil can be field -laminated. Field lamination must use a secure mechanical means of holding the Bail to the bottom -of the roof deddng 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 trop 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 i.nstafled with spacing requirements as described in Residential Appendices RA422. The minimum spacing requirements do not apply to this installation since it is considered a 'laminated" system. Installation of radiant barriers is somewhat more challenging in the case of dosed rafter spaces when sheathing is installed that does not include a laminated foil. Foil may be field -laminated after the sheathing has been installed bylarninatingr the foil as described above to the roof sheathing between framing members. This construction type is described in the Residenfial Appendices RA 4.22. 2008 Addendum Radiant Barrier.doc Madlin S enterprises ♦vvvvv♦ Title 24 2008 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Residential Excerpt Roof Radiant Barriers Mandatory Measures See Figure 3--11 for drawings of radiant barrier installation methods. rRocf GecW..nq .-.-SAW /�Rvof Deddng A@e#wd 3: Radiant BBWerAlbcKed to Method4; Radiant BanierAttached to Bottom of YnadRaahtr Undersda of Roof Dedc Figure 3-19 — Methods of fnstatlation for Radiant Barriers 2008 Addendum Radiant Banier.doc Ai r Space, RadiantRadiant Barrier —gnwYi iiBarriers�.ti raf+1 i •.►i Insulation Insulation J�o i St Joist mom Method I: Radiant Barrier Ekaped Method 2: Radiarlt Barrier Attached Over • Roof Deckng —Roof De�nq Air Space Rachant�!��e;+�c4�e r+'t MiRadiant�♦ �1�+�� j�� "„ �44�+�+4.j8a ML r t +►. _ Joid r A@e#wd 3: Radiant BBWerAlbcKed to Method4; Radiant BanierAttached to Bottom of YnadRaahtr Undersda of Roof Dedc Figure 3-19 — Methods of fnstatlation for Radiant Barriers 2008 Addendum Radiant Banier.doc Madlin S enterprisesCatherine M.

Insulating materials installed in exposed applications must have a flame spread of 25 or less and a smoke development rating of 450 or less. Other mandatory measures apply to specific applications, and they are covered in the sections on ceiling/roof insulation, wall insulation, floor insulation, and slab insulation. Certification of insulating Materials §198(a) The California Standards for Insulating Materials, which became effective on January 1, 1982, ensure that insulation sold or installed in the state performs according to the stated R -value and meets minimum quality, health and safety standards. All materials which claim insulation thermal conductive performance for compliance must be oertified by Department of Consumer Affairs, Bureau of. Home Furnishing and Thermal. Insulation that the insulation conductive thermal performance complies with the California Code of Regulations, Title 24, Part 12, Chapters 12-13, Article 3, "Standards for Insulating Material.# Builders may not install the types of insulating materials indicated in §118(a) unless the manufacturer is licensed to sell in California and the insulation product is certified under one of the categories of insulating materials covered by the Bureau of Home Furnishings. Builders and enforcement agencies should use the Department of Consumer Affair's Consumer Guide and Directory of Cer ied Insulation Material to check compliance. Enforcement agencies receive a copy of the current directory. If an insulating product is not listed in the most recent edition of the directory, or to purchase a directory, contact the Department. of Consumer Affairs Thermal Insulation Program at (916) 574-2041. 2008 Addendum Insulation V l.doc Madlin s enterprises Title 24 2008 Building Ener-gy Efficiency Standards Residential Excerpt Insulation Mandatory Measures 3.2.2 Mandatory Measures Urea Formaldehyde Foam Insulation Urea formaldehyde is restricted by §1553 of CBC Title 20. If such products are certified, this is verification that the restrictions of §1553 were met. The restrictions in Standards §118 also apply, which allow the use of urea formaldehyde foam insulation only if • it is installed in exterior side walls; and • a four -mil -thick (0.1 mm) plastic polyethylene vapor barrier or equivalent plastic sheeting vapor barrier is installed between the urea formaldehyde foam insulation and the interior space in all applications. Flame Spread Ratings California Standards for insulating Materials require that all exposed installations of faced mineral fiber and mineral aggregate insulations must use fire retardant facings. Exposed installations are those where the insulation facings do not touch a ceiling, wail or floor surface, and faced batts on the underside of roofs with an air space between the ceiling and facing. These installations require insulation that has been tested and certified not to exceed a flame spread of 25 and a smoke development rating of 450. Flame spread ratings and smoke development ratings are shown on the insulation or packaging material or may be obtained from the manufacturer. 2008 Addendum Insulation V l.doc Madlin s enterprises TVVVVV♦ Title 24 2008 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Residential Excerpt Insulation Mandatory Measures 3.3.2 Ceiling/Roof Insulation Mandatory Measures § 118(d) §1/8(e) §150(a) § 150(b) These sections are also shown in Appendix 8 01 Mis document. The following mandatory measures apply specifically to roof and ceiling insulation: • When insulation is installed in the attics of existing buildings, at least R-38 must be installed in climate zones 1 and 16 and at least R-30 in the other climate zones. Insulation in roof/ceiling constructions must be placed in direct contact with the infiltration barrier. In most cases the attic is ventilated and the infiltration barrier is the drywall ceiling; in this case, the insulation must lie directly on top of the ceiling. • Wood framed ceiling/roof construction assemblies must have at least R-19 insulation or a maximum U factor of 0.051 based on 16 inch (40 cm) on center wood framed rafter roofs, as determined from the Reference Joint Appendix JA4. The equivalent U factor is from Table 4.2.2, entry A5, which is R-19 insulation in a wood framed rafter roof. • Some areas of the ceilingfroof can fail to meet the mandatory minimum U - factor as long as other areas exceed the requirement and the weighted average U -factor for the overall ceiling/roof is 0.051 or less. • In new construction, the R-19 mandatory minimum level of insulation applies for the performance compliance method. Otherwise, the R-19 minimum is superseded by the prescriptive requirements, which call for either R-30 or R- 38, depending on climate zone. • Metal -framed and ceiling/roof constructions other than wood framed must have a U -factor of 0.051 or less in order to comply with the mandatory measures. If the insulation is not penetrated by framing, such as rigid insulation laid over a structural deck, then the rigid insulation can actually have a rated R -value of less than R-19, and the mandatory measures can be satisfied. 2008 Addendum Insulation V l.doc Madlin s enterprises ♦VVVVVV Title 24 2008 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Residential Excerpt Insulation Mandatory Measures 3.2.2 Roof Mandatory Measures Continued Appendix JA4. The equivalent U -factor is from Table 4.2.2; entry A5, which is R-19 insulation in a wood framed rafter roof. Some areas of the ceiling/roof can fail to meet the mandatory minimum U - factor as long as other areas exceed the requirement and the weighted average 1 -1 -factor for the overall ceiling/roof is 0.051 or less. In new construction, the R-19 mandatory minimum level of insulation applies for the performance compliance method. Otherwise, the R-19 minimum is superseded by the prescriptive requirements, which call for either R-30 or R- 38, depending on climate zone. Metal -framed and ceilingtroof constructions other than wood framed must have a U -factor of 0.051 or less in order to comply with the mandatory measures. If the insulation is not penetrated by framing, such as rigid insulation laid over a structural deck, then the rigid insulation can actually have a rated R -value of less than R-19, and the mandatory measures can be satisfied. Insulation Construction Practices Construction Practice Insulation Coverage Ceiling insulation should extend far enough to the outside walls to cover the bottom chord of the truss. However, insulation should not block eave vents in attics because if the flow of air is blocked, moisture may build up in the attic and water vapor may condense on the underside of the roof. This can cause structural damage and reduce the insulation's effectiveness. Insulation may be tapered near the eave, but it must be applied at a rate to cover the entire ceiling at the specified level. An elevated truss is not required but may be desirable. See Figure 3-8. Loose Fill Insulation § 150(b) Loose R/ Insulation Loose fill insulation must be blown in evenly, and insulation levels must be documented on the Installation Certificate (CF -6R). The insulation level can be 2008 Addendum Insulation Vl.doc Madlin s enterprises ♦YYVVV♦ Title 24 2008 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Residential Excerpt Insulation Mandatory Measures verified by checking that the depth of insulation conforms to the ma.nufacturer's coverage chart for achieving the required R -value. The insulation must also meet the manufacturer's specified minimum weight per ft2 for the corresponding R - value. When installing loose fill insulation, the following guidelines should be followed: For wood trusses that provide a fiat ceiling and a sloped roof, the slope of the roof should be at about 4:12 or greater in order to provide adequate access for installing the insulation. Insulation thickness near the edge of the attic will. be reduced with all standard trusses, but this is acceptable as long as the average thickness is adequate to meet the minimum insulation requirement. 2. If the ceiling is sloped (for instance, with scissor trusses), loose fill insulation can be used as long as the slope of the ceiling is no more than 4:12. If the ceiling slope is greater than 4:12, loose fill should be used only if the insulation manufacturer will certify the installation for the slope of the ceiling. 3. At the apex of the truss, a clearance of at least 30 inch should be provided to facilitate installation and inspection.

See Figure 3-9.The baffle should extend beyond the height of the ceiling insulation and should have sufficient clearance between the baffle and roof deck at the top. There are a number of acceptable methods for maintaining ventilation air, including pre formed baffles made of either paper or plastic. In some cases, plywood baffles are used. The CBC requires a minimum vent area of 1 ft2 for each 950 ft2 of attic floor area. This ratio may be reduced to 1 to 300 if a ceiling vapor retarder is present or if high (for example, ridge or gable vents) and low (soffit vents) attic ventilation is used. When part of the vent area is blocked by meshes or louvers, the net free area of the vent must be considered when meeting ventilation requirements. Wood Rafter Constructions Ventilating solid rafter spaces is more difficult than ventilating attics because each framing cavity requires its own vent openings. However, the requirement for ventilation is at the discretion of the local building official. It is common practice with cellulose insulation, for instance, to completely fill the cavity so that there is no ventilation at all. Also, if spray polyurethane foam is used, it is applied to the underside of the roof deck leaving no ventilation space. With batt insulation, it is possible to ventilate above the insulation using eave baffles, ridge vents, and careful installation. 2008 Addendum Insulation Vi.doc Madlins enterprises Catherine M.

Title 24 2008 Building Energy Efficiency Standards Residential Excerpt Fenestration Mandatory Measures 3.2.2 Mandatory Measures The Standards define three types of fenestration products that face different mandatory measures: • Manufactured products are delivered pre -assembled from the factory • Site -built products are glazed or assembled on site using factory prepared systems. The contractor may also pre -assemble sit -built fenestration at his/her shop before final installation. For unlabeled site -built fenestration use default values from Standards Table 116-A and 115-13, otherwise, select site build fenestration from NFRC's Certified Products Directory. • Site built products do not have a NFRC label and are constructed at the job site. Air Leakage Manufactured Fenestration Products Manufactured fenestration products, including exterior doors, must be tested and certified to leak not more than 0.3 cubic feet per minute (cfm) per ft2 of window area. The mandatory measure applies to all manufactured windows whether they are used in new residential or nonresidential buildings. Site -built Products: There are no specific air leakage requirements for site -built fenestration products, the Standards require limiting air leakage through weatherstripping and caulking. Field -fabricated Products:.No testing is required for field -fabricated fenestration products, however, the Standards require limiting air leakage through weatherstripping and caulking. Exterior Door: Exterior doors must meet the following requirements: • Manufactured exterior doors must be certified as meeting an air -leakage rate of 0.3 cmf/ft2 of door area of §116(a)1, which is the same as windows. • They must comply with the requirements of §117 (Joints and Other Openings) they must be caulked and weatherstripped if field -fabricated. • Any door that is more than one-half glass is a fenestration product and must comply with the mandatory and prescriptive measures and other Standards requirements for fenestration products. U -factor and SHGC Ratings Manufactured Fenestration Products: The mandatory measures require that both the U -factor and SHGC of manufactured fenestration products must be determined from NFRC's Certified Products Directory or from the Energy Commission approved default tables. At the time of inspection, the actual fenestration U -factor and SHGC values as shown on the NFRC labels or in the default tables must result in equal or lower overall energy consumption than the values indicated on the compliance documents.

The Standards require that manufactured windows have both temporary and permanent labels that show the NFRC performance characteristics. The temporary label shows the U -factor and SHGC, for each rated window. The label must also show the window meets the air infiltration criteria. The temporary label must not be removed before inspection by the enforcement agency. The permanent label must, at a minimum, identify the certifying organization and have a number or code to allow tracking back to the original information on file with the certifying organization. The permanent label also can be inscribed on the spacer, etched on the glass, engraved on the frame, or otherwise located so as not to affect aesthetics. Site -Built Fenestration Products. Labeling requirements apply to site -built fenestration products as well, except that a label certificate may be provided in accordance with NFRC 100 in place of an attached temporary label. The label certificate is a document that verifies the performance of the site - built fenestration product but that is not physically attached by the product. The label certificate is kept at the job site by the contractor for field inspection verification. Field -Fabricated Fenestration Products. A label is not required for field -fabricated fenestration products, but must use the default values in Table 116-A and Table 116-B from the Standards. World's Best I.FRC Window Co.

Not only does this degrade the performance of the ceiling assembly, but it can also permit condensation on a cold surface of the luminaire if exposed to moist air, as 'in a bathroom. For these reasons, luminaires recessed in insulated ceilings must meet three requirements_ , 1. They must be approved for zero clearance insulation cover (IC) by Underwriters Laboratories or other testing/rating laboratories I ecognized by the International Conference of Building Officials. This enables insulation to be packed in direct contact with the luminaire. (See Figure 3-10). I 2. The luminaire must have a label certifying air tight (AT) construction. Air tight construction means that leakage through the luminaire will not exceed 2.0 cfm when exposed to a 75 Pa pressure difference, when tested in accordance with ASTM E283. 3. The luminaire must be sealed with a gasket or caulk between the housing and ceiling. For more information see Section 6.10 of this manual.
