ADDRESS: Permit Number:
Port Saint Lucie FL
MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS - See individual code sections forfull details.
SECTION R401 GENERAL
❑ R401.3 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 Statutes) requires the EPL display card to be included as an addendum to each sales contract for
both presold and nonpresold 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 completed and signed
by the builder accurately reflects the plans and specifications submitted to demonstrate code compliance for the building. A copy of the
EPL display card can be found in Appendix RD.
SECTION R402 BUILDING THERMAL ENVELOPE
❑ R402.4 Air leakage (Mandatory). The building thermal envelope shall be constructed to limit air leakage in accordance with the
requirements of Sections R402.4.1 through R402.4.5.
Exception: Dwelling units of R-2 Occupancies and multiple attached single family dwellings shall be permitted to
comply with Section C402.5.
❑ 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.
❑ R402.4.1.1 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 R402.4.1.1, as applicable to the method of construction. Where
required by the code official, an approved third party shall inspect all components and verify compliance.
