Assumptions for Preliminary Home Energy Rating CET has completed a Preliminary Home Energy Rating with the following assumptions: a) The construction plans you have provided are accurate, including window dimensions and locations. b) Energy features not listed below in part c will meet the prescriptive requirements of the IECC 2009. c) The home will be built to incorporate the following energy features: Building Envelope Specifications Used in Analysis Basement Condition Unconditioned, basement ceiling insulated Foundation Wall Insulation Type = N/A R-Value= Slab Edge Insulation Type = N/A R-Value= Rim & Band Joist Insulation Type = FG R-Value= 19 Above Grade & Walkout Walls Insulation Type = OCF R-Value= 24 Grade=1 Windows U-value = .30 SHGC = .30 Glass Doors U-value = .30 SHGC = .30 Skylights U-value = n/a SHGC = n/a Exterior Doors R-4 Ceilings Insulation Type = OCF R-Value= 50 Blower Door Test* 5 ACH50 or better* -----Select from list----- Meet ALL Checklist Requirements as verified by a HERS rater at pre- drywall and final inspection * The 2009 IECC requires a blower door test result of 7 ACH50 or lower. The number listed here requires significant improvements in air sealing beyond the base energy code. Mechanical Systems Specifications Used in Analysis Heating Equipment Type: Furnace Efficiency: 90+% Cooling Equipment Type: Central Efficiency: 13 SEER Water Heating Equipment Type: On-Demand Efficiency: 90+% Duct Leakage 213cfm or less leakage to the outside at final inspection Duct Location Interior/Attic under insulation Whole House Ventilation (ASHRAE 62.2) 89CFM Lighting & Appliances Specifications Used in Analysis Lighting 80% or more compact fluorescent bulbs Refrigerator 500 kWh per year or less Dishwasher .68 Energy Factor = or better ENERGY EFFICIENCY PLAN Page 2 of 2 ~ Please send signed form to the Center for EcoTechnology Tel (413) 586-7350 ext.242 ~ Fax (413) 586-7351 ~ greenhome@cetonline.org 2. Preliminary Home Energy Rating Results Based on the assumptions described above, we have calculated the following Preliminary Home Energy Rating results. Preliminary HERS Index: 60 Preliminary Improvement Over 2012-2013 v2 Massachusetts Reference Home: 15.5% ENERGY STAR HERS Index Target: n/a Note that Confirmed Home Energy Rating results may vary from the Preliminary Home Energy Rating results due to changes in building plans, energy features installed in the home, RESNET standards, software changes, and other factors. 3.
