Residential Whole Building Performance and Prescriptive methods
ADDRESS: 4915 SEAGRAPE DRIVE Permit Number:
FORT PIERCE, FL,34982
MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS See individual code sections for full details.
401.3 Energy Performance Level(EPL)display card(Mandatory). The building official shall require that an energy performance level(EPL)
display card be completed and certified by the builder to be accurate and correct before final approval of the building for occupancy. Florida law
[Section 553.9085, Florida Statues]requires the EPL display card to be included as an addendum to each sales contract for both presold and
nonpreso)d residential buildings.The EPL display card contains information indicating the energy performance level and efficiencies of components
installed in a dwelling unit.The building official shall verify that the EPL display card completedj;and signed by the builder accurately reflects the plans
and specifications submitted to demonstrate compliance for the building.A copy of the EPL display card can b found in Appendix C.
R402.4 Air leakage(Mandatory). The building thermal envelope shall be constructed to limit air leakage in accordance with the requirements of
Sections R402.1 through R402.4.4.
O R402.4.1 Building thermal envelope. The building thermal envelope shall comply with Sections R402.4.1.1 and R402.4.1.2.The
sealing methods between dissimilar materials shall allow for differential expansion and contraction.
R402.4A.1 Installation. The components of the building thermal envelope as listed in Table R402.4.1.1 shall be installed in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and the criteria listed in Table 402.4.1.1,as applicable to the method of construction.
Where required by the code official,an approved third party shall inspect all components and verify compliance.
R402.4.1.2 Testing. The building or dwelling unit shall be tested and verified l�'.as having an air leakage rate of not exceeding 7 air
changes per hour in Climate Zones 1 and 2,and 3 air changes per hour in Climate Zones 3 through 8.Testing shall be conducted with
a blower door at a pressure of 0.2 inches w.g.(50 Pascals).Testing shall be conducted by either individuals as defined in Section
553.993(5)or(7), Florida Statutes or individulas licensed as set forth in Section 489.105(3)(f), or(i)or an approved third party. A
written report of the results of the test shall be signed by the party conducting the test and provided to the code official.Testing shall be
performed at any time after creation of all penetrations of the building thermal envelope.
During testing:
1.Exterior windows and doors,fireplace and stove doors shall be closed,but not sealed,beyond the intended weatherstripping or
other infiltration control measures;
2.Dampers including exhaust,intake,makeup air,backdraft and flue dampers shall be closed, but not sealed beyond intended
infiltration control measures;
