L. Space Conditioning Systems, Ducts and Fans Mandatory Requirements and Additional Measures
Additional mandatory requirements from Section 150.0 that are not listed here may be applicable to some systems. These requirements may be applicable to only newly
installed equipment or portions of the system that are altered. Existing equipment may be exempt from these requirements.
Heating Equipment
01 Equipment Efficiency: All heating equipment must meet the minimum efficiency requirements of Section 110.1 and Section 110.2(a) and the Appliance Efficiency Regulations.
02 Controls: All unitary heating systems, including heat pumps, must be controlled by a setback thermostat. These thermostats must be capable of allowing the occupant to program the
temperature set points for at least four different periods in 24 hours. See Sections 150.0(i), 110.2(b).
03 Sizing: Heating load calculations must be done on portions of the building served by new heating systems to prevent inadvertent undersizing or oversizing. See sections 150.0(h)1 and
2).
04 Furnace Temperature Rise: Central forced-air heating furnace installations must be configured to operate at or below the furnace manufacturer's maximum inlet-to-outlet temperature
rise specification. See Section 150.0(h)4.
05 Standby Losses and Pilot Lights: Fan-type central furnaces may not have a continuously burning pilot light. Section 110.5 and Section 110.2(d).
Cooling Equipment
06 Equipment Efficiency: All cooling equipment must meet the minimum efficiency requirements of Section 110.1 and Section 110.2(a) and the Appliance Efficiency Regulations.
07 Refrigerant Line Insulation: All refrigerant line insulation in split system air conditioners and heat pumps must meet the R-value and protection requirements of Section 150.0(j)2 and 3,
and Section 150.0(m)9.
08 Condensing Unit Location: Condensing units shall not be placed within five (5) feet of a dryer vent outlet. See Section 150.0(h)3A.
09 Liquid Line Filter Drier: A liquid line filter drier shall be installed according to the manufacturer's specifications 150.0(h)3B
10 Sizing: Cooling load calculations must be done on portions of the building served by new cooling systems to prevent inadvertent undersizing or oversizing. See Section 150.0(h)1 and 2.
Air Distribution System Ducts, Plenums and Fans
11 Insulation: The minimum duct insulation value is R-6 or ducts can be uninsulated if the duct system is located entirely in conditioned space. Note that higher values may be required by
the prescriptive or performance requirements. See Section 150.0(m)1B for exceptions.
12 Connections and Closures: All installed air-distribution system ducts and plenums must be, sealed and insulated to meet the requirements of CMC Sections 601.0, 602.0, 603.0, 604.0,
605.0 and ANSI/SMACNA-006-2006.
