MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS See individual code sections for full 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
nonpresotd 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.
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.
R40P.4.1 Building thermal envelo]fbe building thermal envelope shall comply with Sections R402.4.1 A 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.
ri I
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 changes 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)(0, (g) or (1) or
an approved third party. A written report of the results of the test shall be signed by the parry conducting the test and provided to the code
offi i 1. Testing shall be performed at any time after creation of all penetrations of the building thermal envelope.
Exception: Testing is not required for additions, alterations, renovations, or repairs, of the building thermal envelope of existing
buildings in which the new construction is less than 85 percent of the building thermal envelope.
During testing:
1. Exterior windows and doors, fireplace and stove doors shall be dosed, 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.
3. Interior doors, if installed at the time of the test, shall be open.
4. Exterior doors for continuous ventilation systems and heat recovery ventilators shall be dosed and sealed.
5. Heating and cooling systems, If installed at the time of the test, shall be turned off.
6. Supply and return misters, if installed at the time of the test, shall be fully open.
R402.4.2 Fireplaces. New wood-buming fireplaces shall have tight -fitting flue dampers or doors, and outdoor combustion air. Where
using tight -fitting doors on factory -built fireplaces listed and labeled in accordance with UL 127, the doors shall be tested and listed for the
fireplace. Where using tight -fitting doors on masonry fireplaces, the doors shall be frsted and labeled In accordance with UL 967.
R402.4.3 Fenesttatlon air leakage.Windows, skylights and sliding glass doors shall have an air infiltration rate of no more than 0.3 cfm per
square foot ,(1.5 Us/m2), and swinging doors no more than 0.5 cfim per square foot (2.6 L/slm2), when tested according to NFRC 400 or
AAMA/ WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440 by an accredited, independent laboratory and listed and labeled by the manufacturer.

R402AA Roome containing fuel-buming appliances. In Climate Zones 3 through 8, where open combustion air ducts provide combustion air to
open combustion fuel burning appliances; the appliances and combustion air opening shall be located outside the building thermal envelope or
enclosed inla room, isolated from inside the thermal envelope. Such rooms shall be seated and insulated in accordance with the envelope requirements
of Tables R402.1.2, where the walls, floors and ceilings shall meet not less than the basement wall R-value requirement. The door into the room shall be
fully gesksted and any water lines and ducts iri the room insulated in accordance with Section R403. The combustion air duct shall be insulated where 4
passes through conditioned space to a minimum of R-8.
1. Direct vent appliances with both intake and exhaust pipes installed continuous to the outside.
2. Fireplaces and stoves complying with Section R402.4.2 and Section R1006 of the Florida Building Code, Residential.
R402.4.5 Recessed lighting. Recessed luminaires installed in the building thermal envelope shall be sealed to limit air leakage
between eoroditioned and unconditioned spaces. All recessed luminaires shall be IC -rated and labeled as having an air leakage rate not
more than 210 cf n (0.944 Us) when tested In accordance with ASTM E283 at a 1.67 psf (75 Pa) pressure differential. All recessed
luminaires shall be sealed with a gasket or caulk between the housing and the interior wall or calling covering.
R403.1 controls. SECTION R403 SYSTEMS
R403.1.1 !Thermostat provision (Mandatory). At least one thermostat shall be provided for each separate heating and cooling system.
R403.1.3 Heat pump supplementary heat (Mandatory). Heat pumps having supplementary electric -resistance heat shall have controls
