Air Leakage:
[ ] Joints,penetrations,and all other such openings in the building envelope that are sources of air
leakage must be sealed. -
[ ] Recessed lights must be 1)Type IC rated,or 2)installed inside an appropriate air-tight assembly
with a 0.5"clearance from combustible materials.If non-IC rated,the fixture must be installed with a
3"clearance from insulation.
Vapor Retarder:
[ ] Required on the warm-in-winter side of all non-vented framed ceilings,walls,and floors.
Materials Identification:
[ ] Materials and equipment must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions.
[ ] Materials and equipment must be identified so that compliance can be determined.
[ ] Manufacturer manuals for all installed heating and cooling equipment and service water heating
equipment must be provided.
[ ] Insulation R-values and glazing U-factors must be clearly marked on the building plans or specifications.
Duct Insulation:
[ ] Supply ducts in unconditioned attics or outside the building must be insulated to R-11.
[ ] Return ducts in unconditioned attics or outside the building must be insulated to R-6.
[ ] Supply ducts in unconditioned•spaces must be insulated to R 11.
[ ] Return ducts in unconditioned spaces(except basements)must be insulated to R-2.
Insulation is not required on return ducts in basements.
Duct Construction:
[ ] All joints,seams,and connections must be securely fastened with welds,gaskets,mastics
(adhesives);mastic-plus-embedded-fabric, or tapes. Lict tape is not permitted.
Exception:Continuously welded and locking-type longitudinal joints and seams on ducts
operating at less than 2 in.w.g.(500 Pa).
[ ] Ducts shall be supported every 10 feet or in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
[ ] Cooling ducts with exterior insulation must be covered with a vapor retarder.
[ ] Air filters are required in the return air system.
[ ] The HVAC system must provide a means for balancing air and water systems.

[ ] Each dwelling unit has at lesat one thermostat capable of automatically adjusting the space
temperature set point of the largest zone.
• Electric Systems:
[ ] Separate electric meters are required for each dwelling unit.
Fireplaces:
[ ] Fireplaces must be installed with tight fitting non-combustible fireplace doors.
[ ] Fireplaces must be provided with a source of combustion air,as required by the Fireplace construction
provisions of the Building Code of New York State,the Residential Code of New York State or •
the New York City Building Code,as applicable.
Service Water Heating:
[ ] Water heaters with vertical pipe risers must have a heat trap on both the inlet and outlet unless the
water heater has an integral heat trap or is part of a circulating system.
[ ] Insulate circulating hot water pipes to the levels in Table 1.
•
Circulating Hot Water Systems: •
•
[ ] Insulate circulating hot water pipes to the levels in Table 1.
Swimming Pools:
[ ] All heated swimming pools-must have an on/off heater switch and require a cover unless over 20%
of the heating energy is from non-depletable sources. Pool pumps require a time clock.
