Owner's Project Requirements, lune 22, 2015 Temporary Ventilation: During construction the permanent HVAC system should only be used if absolutely necessary. Any use of the HVAC system during construction shall be with the use of MERV 8 filters. o Install new MERV 8 Filters prior to occupancy and check filters for MERV rating label. o Include recommendations for filter maintenance in O&M manual. Protection of HVAC system during Construction: Cover all duct and other related air distribution component openings with tape, plastic, sheet metal, or other acceptable methods to reduce the amount of dust and debris which may enter the system. Ensure any adhesive materials such as tape will not leave a residue on exposed finished surfaces. Finish material pollutant control o All materials including adhesives, sealants, caulks, paints/coatings, carpet adhesives shall comply with California's low VOC standards. o All carpet in building must comply with one of the following: Green Label Plus Program, Cal. Dept. of Public Health "Standard Method for the Testing and Evaluation of Volatile Organic Chemical Emissions from Indoor Sources Using Environmental Chambers", NSF/ANSI 140 Gold Level, SCS (floorscore), or Scientific Certifications Systems Indoor Advantage Gold. The Carpet Cushion must comply with the Carpet and Rug Institute's "Green Label" program. o All composite wood flooring must meet formaldehyde requirements such as ULEF (ultra-low emitting formaldehyde), NAF (no added formaldehyde), and CARB (California Air Resources Board) Phase 1 or 2. o 80% of the resilient flooring area must comply with one of the following: RFCI Floorscore, Cal. Dept. of Public Health "Standard Method for the Testing and Evaluation of Volatile Organic Chemical Emissions from Indoor Sources Using Environmental Chambers", CHPS VOC product database, or CHPS criteria as certified by Greenguard Children's and Schools Program. Environmental Tobacco Smoke (ETS) control o Smoking is prohibited on campus Ozone Depletion and Greenhouse Gas Reduction: HVAC and Fire Suppression systems shall not use CFCs or Halons . 5.0 Equipment and Systems Expectations • Level of quality, reliability, efficiency, equipment type, flexibility, ease of maintenance, and complexity desired: o Single Zone Packaged Unitary System ■ These units are the most common type of system, and are suitable for less demanding performance requirements, low initial cost, and simplified installation. ■ Owner has requested higher efficiency Packaged Unitary Systems. This includes a higher efficiency rating, staged cooling capacity, and variable speed fans) ■ These units are what the owner would like to install. • Other additional equipment efficiency measures discussed earlier include: o Airside Economizer: ■ Air -side economizers save energy in buildings by admitting cool outside air when conditions are right as a means of cooling the indoor space and also improving indoor air quality. o Daylighting Controls ■ Daylighting controls utilize sensors to dim or turn off lights in areas where and when daylight provides adequate light levels. 6.0 Building Occupant and O&M Personnel Expectations (Maintainability) 0 Each HVAC unit shall have a Programmable Thermostat, including the make-up air unit.
