2 Code References FLORIDA BUILDING CODE Energy Conservation Fifth Edition (2014) Effective: June 30, 2015 Has some major changes to the requirements for Energy Efficient Windows, Doors, and Skylights
3 Green Building Rating Systems FS and Section 3.2(4) SREF, Rule 6A-2, FAC Four Options: USGBC LEED ICC IgCC: GBI.
4 Two Basic Options (C401.2) Prescriptive Path Must meet all of the requirements for : Building Envelope (C402) Mechanical Systems (C403) Water Heating Systems (C404) Electrical Power and Lighting Systems (C405) Performance Path (computer model) (C407) The modeled building energy cost must be < 85% of the standard reference design building (C401.2). Mandatory Sections C402.4, C403.2, C404, C405 (C407.2)
5 Climate Zones (C301.1) Zone 1 New Code Broward Dade Monroe Collier Hendry Lee Palm Beach Zone 2 All other counties in Florida
6 NFRC Label (C ) All performance values include the glazing and the frame.
7 Without NFRC Label (C ) Products lacking a label must use a Default Value. Default Values are the same for all climate zones Default Values will not meet the prescriptive requirements. U-Factor Window Skylight Frame Type Single Pane Double Pane Single Pane Double Pane Metal w/ thermal break Door Type U-Factor Uninsulated Metal 1.20 Insulated Metal 0.60 SHGC and VT Single Pane Double Pane Clear Tinted Clear Tinted SHGC VT (New code)

9 Low-E Glass Soft Coat It is the most common type of low-e. The layer of silver is deposited onto the glass through a sputtering process after the glass is manufactured. This type of coating is fairly sensitive and needs to be protected inside an IG unit to prevent scratching. Hard Coat During the manufacturing process, a pyrolytic or hard-coat low-e glazing incorporates a thin layer of tin oxide into the glass while it is still hot. Applying it at this stage welds it to the glass, resulting in a very durable coating. Low-E Placement In warmer climates, the location is best on the #2 surface. In cold climates, it is best on the #3 surface for maximum results.
10 U-Factor Climate Zone 1 Default(C ) Energy Code LEED or IgCC GG FGBC Fixed window (C402.3) Operable window (C402.3) Door w/ > 50% glass (C402.3) Opaque Door (C ) (C402.2) Skylight (C402.3) Climate Zone 2 Fixed or operable window same as climate zone 1 Door w/ > 50% glass (C402.3) Opaque Door same as climate zone 1 Skylight (C402.3)
11 Daylight Zone Under skylights (C202) The area under skylights whose horizontal dimension, in each direction, is equal to the skylight dimension in that direction plus the floor-to-ceiling height. Adjacent to vertical fenestration (C202) The area adjacent to vertical fenestration which receives daylight through the fenestration. The daylight zone is assumed to extend into the space a distance of 15 feet. The daylight zone width is assumed to be the width of the window plus 2 feet on each side.
12 Daylighting in Schools Daylighting in schools has been shown to significantly increase student s test scores and promote better health and physical development Heschong Mahone Group studies have shown: 26% improvement on reading tests 20% improvement on math tests Improved visibility due to higher illumination levels Improved visibility due to improved light quality Improved health Improved mood Improved alertness Improved behavior
