This building incorporates HERS verified EER.
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
This revised T24 report is issuedto change the conditioned
square footage of the proposed project. This report supercedes
our report issued in March 2006.
The values and materials used in this compliance portfolio are
the minimum required to show compliance with Title 24 Energy
Conservation Standards. The owner may (at his/her option) install
better materials without additional compliance calculations.
The HVAC load calculations included in this compliance report
are for permit purposes only. The installing HVAC contractor
is responsible for determining the HVAC design loads and
equipment selection. The HVAC design shall be done in accordance
with industry standards. The load calculation in this report
considers ambient temperature load, solar gain, people and
a fixed latent heat gain percentage. This basic load must
be adjusted for additional design condiitons and system/
equipment performance.
All contractors and subcontractors are responsible to meet the

redone without duct testing. If ducts are not installed, then HERS
verification is not necessary.
REMARKS
The values and materials used in this compliance portfolio are
the minimum required to show compliance with Title 24 Energy
Conservation Standards. The owner may (at his/her option) install
better materials without additional compliance calculations.
The HVAC load calculations included in this compliance report
are for permit purposes .only. The installing HVAC contractor
is responsible for determining the HVAC design loads and
equipment selection. The HVAC design shall be done in accordance
with industry standards. The load calculation in this report
considers ambient temperature load, solar gain, people and
a fixed latent heat gain percentage. This basic load must
be adjusted for additional design condiitons and system/
equipment performance.
All contractors and subcontractors are responsible to meet the
requirements of Title 24 Mandatory Measures related to their
work.

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 E4087-71(2002) and
must be certified by the Department of Consumer Affairs2. Radiant barriers must
also meet installation criteria as specified i� Section 4.2.1 of the Residential
ACM Manua! (Section 4.2.1 is also reprodur d -A pendix D of this document).
The most common way of meeting j,"--; iant barrie uirement is to use roof
sheathing that has a di�t barrie�t once to it ' factory. Oriented strand
board (OSB) is the mt c rt1 tena vailable with afactory-applied
radiant barrier. Tbe�bheath' i sWed with the radiant barrier (shiny side)
f�r>iCg do e -tow Cd the 04 pa . Alternatively, a radiant barrier material that
M s t s e TN)� st nd moisture perforation requirements that apply to
f �r�t -la n t �fc� an be field -laminated. Field lamination must use a secure
=c n' e�ans of holding the foil to the bottom of the roof decking such as
pl 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 requirements as described in
Section 4.2.1 of the Residential ACM Manual.. 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
closed rafter spaces when sheathing is installed that does not inclufle`�
laminated foil. Foil may be field -laminated after the sh-dathi p:l as �"-ins
by "laminating" the foil as described above to the ropf sheathitag-f2e%iteeraer f)
framing members. This construction type is des�r i�i`le es en a At
Manual, Section 4.2.1.

window manufacturer must have the window tested, labeled, and certified

High Efficacy Luminaires
A luminaire is the lighting industry's term for light fixture. A luminaire consists of
the housing, power supply (ballast), lamp, " fle�' Ond in some cases a lens. A
lamp is the lighting industry's term for a light bu1bb_.Lu inaires can be designed

lani s�Ehough other types such as screw sockets specifically rated for
i fet�
g��_in sity discharge lamps (Ike metal halide lamps) may also be eligible for
xteior use. Luminaires with modular components that allow conversion
between screw -based and pin -based sockets without changing the luminaire
housing or wiring shall not be considered high efficacy luminaires. 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: at -t e
lumens per watt for the lamp be above a specified thresholdA.M. tht�el onic
ballasts be used in certain applications.
Electronic Ballasts
Additionally, fluore " t as i a po r rating of 13 W or more shall have

sss ium) containing hardwired electromagnetic HID ballasts with HID
yrtedium 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 that 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
is magnetic. However, there are new compact fluorescent lamp holders being
considered by the lighting industry.

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
efficacy light sources; incandescent lamps (�lud' y screw-in incandescent
lamps, like regular 'A' or reflector lamps or q a logen lamps, or low voltage
lamps, like halogen MR 1 mps)MO not, classifie s high efficacy, a lamp

\\ j A.Aesic�4� ecommendation may be to utilize the Illuminating Engineering 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 kitchen cabinets
so that the contents of the cabinet are discernable. 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-

that it can be left off the occupant sensor circuit to ensure that 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. .

Outdoor Lighting
§lWk)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 swimmingPIs, wyate features, or other
locations subject to Article 680 of the Calif�ia Code are exempt.

t tus al, as long as the lamp fails in the off position. The intention of this
req irement 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 photocontrol/motion sensor) may
be a good choice.

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 �Iovir" occupant with the option
of turning the lights off manu lly upoJ vmg t�e��gm. This option should be
available without having remove" t tchplate�r� ny other modifications to
the sensor. The man I fe ur cnfic I because it provides the occupants

4'ility4o 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 ontoff 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
changing switch settings. These occupant sensors are acceptable as long as
the mechanism to switch settings is not visible to the occupant, cannot easll�

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 r6g§0 is of the Standards.

O o altemate 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. Lio Olt e
incandescent lamps, including tungsten -halogen lamp ,. can easily be d

systems. Most fluorescent lamps cannot be properly dimmed with the same
simple wallbox devices typically used for dimming incandescent lamps. A
special control and dimming ballast must be used. Some types of screw-in
compact fluoresoent lamps with integral ballasts can be dimmed by simple
controls. However, many screw-in compact fluorescent lamps cannot be
dimmed at all.

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;
88 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 hear 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
Store TechShield® radiant barrier sheathing panels in a dean, 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 sheers
or tarpaulins with the sides loosely covered to provide adequate air ventilation.
Handle TechShield radiant barrier sheathing panels as you would other APA -rated 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.
