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 Pe 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 cdntains information indicating the energy performance level and efficiencies of components
installed in a dwelling unit. The building official shall verif , 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.
R402.4 Air leakage (Mandatory). The building
Sections R402.4.1 through R402.4.5.
Exception: Dwelling units of R-2
comply with Section C402.5.

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.
R402.4.1.2 Testing. The building or dwelling unit shall be tested and verified as having an air leakage rate not exceeding seven air
changes per hour in Climate Zones 1 and 2, and three air charges per hour in Climate Zones 3 through 8. Testing shall be conducted in
accordance with ANSI/RESNET/ICC 380 and reported at a pressure of 0.2 inch w.g. (50 pascals). Testing shall be conducted by either
individuals as defined in Section 553.993(5) or (7), Florida Statutes, or individuals licensed as set forth in Section 489.105(3)(f) (g) or (i) or
an approved third party. A written report of the results of the te�t shall be signed by the party conducting the test and provided to the code
