My take on the matter is the code prevails. Oct 20, Messages: Share This Page Tweet.

Well it sure is encouraging to see this much discussion over an issue that an ounce of common sense should resolve. Yes, my password is: They now explained that REScheck is not a performance based software program but reschek is a tradeoff program.

ResCheck is about 'thermal envelope'. Oct 29, Messages: Building envelope components separate conditioned spaces from unconditioned spaces or from outside air see conditioned space. Oct 26, Messages: You must log in or sign up to post here.

I've never seen this. I understand and agree with STB, the program is designed to work within the parameters offered. Building Envelope All components of a building that enclose conditioned space.

uhm.... I've never seen this.

IF the existing construction has no insulation, no new windows, no new furnace, but a new dual flush toilet. These should both rescehck listed in the product specs.

Resxheck appreciate you being here and hope that you are getting the information that you need concerning all codes of the building trades. IF the existing construction has no insulation, no new windows.

uhm I've never seen this. | Page 2 | The Building Code Forum

Welcome to the new and improved Building 4.0 Forum. If you are Zone 5, you do not have enough insulation in the exterior walls. This is a free forum to the public due to the generosity of the Sawhorses, Corporate Supporters and Supporters who have upgraded their accounts.

Your name or email address: You're never going to get the entire structure to comply when you add an addition to an existing, under-insulated home If we're going to bring thermal envelope into the mix, IMHO, the space above the first floor in this scenario could meet the definition of building thermal envelope. Do you already have an account? The existing part of the rezcheck should not be part of the calculation as it relates to the energy efficiency of the proposed addition.

It would be comparable to putting page reschedk of a letter in a second envelope, with seperate postage, to the same address. Jan 7, Messages: The first thing that I do when checking a ResCheck is to see how far the values for insulation and window U-factor deviate from the prescriptive table.

TimNY, Although you have merit to what you are saying, the bottom line is the program is only designed to take area adjacent to or above outside air or unconditioned space. Oct 22, Messages: I was also informed that when a person wants to use spray foam insulation to be sure they are giving you the "installed" R-value and not the "effective" R-value. The first that I check is location and code edition, but after that, I look compare the insulation and the windows with the prescriptive chart.

They told me that the floor has to be removed from the list. And that reason has been rescheci I'm reschcek to concede not accepting the REScheck based on the program not having an 'over conditioned space' and leaving it reschdck that.

Not sure how the rest of the country is doing it, but the ceiling between the first and second floors would not be a part of the thermal building envelope in my neck of the woods.
