(1) Each component present in the As Proposed home must meet or exceed each of the applicable criteria in order to comply with
this code using this method.
(2) For impact rated fenestration complying with Section R301.2.1.2 of the Florida Building Code, Residential or Section 1609.1.2 of the
Florida Building Code, Building,the maximum U-factor shall be 0.65 in Climate Zone 2. An area-weighted
average of U-factor and SHGC shall be accepted to meet the requirements, or up to 15 square feet of glazed fenestration area are
exempted from the U-factor and SHGC requirement based on Section R402.3.1, R402.3.2 and R402.3.3.
(3) One side-hinged opaque door assembly up to 24 square feet is exempted from this U-factor requirement.
(4) R-values are for insulation material only as applied in accordance with manufacturer’s installation instructions. For mass walls the “interior of wall”
requirement must be met except if at least 50 percent of the insulation required for the “exterior of wall” is installed exterior of, or integral to, the wall.
(5) Ducts & AHU installed “substantially leak free” per Section R403.3.2. Test required 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), Florida Statutes. The total leakage test is not
required for ducts and air handlers located entirely within the building thermal envelope.
(6) Minimum efficiencies are those set by the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act of 1987 for typical residential equipment and are
