E. Roof Replacement (Section 150.2(b)1H)

When 50% or more of the roof is being replaced the roofing requirements are triggered. Any areas of roof covered by building integrated photovoltaic panels and solar thermal panels are exempt; however, the area of roof not covered by photovoltaic panels would still need to meet any applicable cool roof requirements. Additionally, there are many alternatives/exceptions when a cool roof is required.

When the roof is steep slope (pitch greater than 2:12) the roof requirements include a cool roof in climate zones 10-15. The minimum requirement is 0.20 Aged Solar Reflectance, 0.75 Thermal Emittance, or a minimum SRI of 16.

1.Tag/ID: A label, if any, from the plans, for example R-1.

2.Method of Compliance: Indicate if the method of compliance is going to be based on Aged Solar Reflectance and Thermal Emittance, the Solar Reflectance Index (SRI), or an Exception.

3.Roof Pitch: Expressed as 4:12, for example, which means the roof rises 4 feet within a span of 12 feet. When roofs have multiple pitches the requirements are based on the pitch of 50% or more of the roof.

4.Exception: If meeting one of the exceptions. Indicate which exception is, or will be, met.

NOTE: Exceptions and alternatives for steep slope roofs:

(a)Mass roof 25 lbs/ft2 or greater (uncommon situation such as sod roof);

(b)Air space 1” from top of roof deck to bottom of roofing;

(c)Roofing product has a profile ratio of rise to width of 1 to 5 for 50 percent or greater of the width of the roofing product;

(d)Ducts already meet Section 150.1(c) insulation and duct leakage requirements;

(e)Roof has R-38 insulation;

(f)Roof has a radiant barrier;

(g)No ducts are installed in the attic; or

(h)R-2 insulation above the roof deck.

In climate zones 13-15, when there is a low slope roof (pitch 2:12 or less) the cool roof requirements are for a minimum Aged Solar Reflectance of 0.63, a minimum 0.75 Thermal Emittance, or a minimum SRI of 75.

NOTE: Exceptions and alternatives for low slope roofs:

(a)Mass roof 25 lbs/ft2 or greater (uncommon situation such as sod roof);

(b)No ducts are installed in the attic; or

(c)Roof deck installation trade off—by installing roof deck insulation, a lower aged solar reflectance is required: R-2 (0.62-0.60), R-4 (0.59-0.55), R-6

(0.54-0.50), R-8 (0.49-0.45), R-12 (0.44-0.40), R-16 (0.39-0.35), R-20 (0.34-0.30), R-24 (0.29-0.25).

NOTE: If one of the exceptions above has been selected than the rest of Section C is Not Required.

5.The CRRC Product ID Number is obtained from the Cool Roof Rating Council’s Rated Product Directory at www.coolroofs.org/products/results. Products are listed by manufacturer, brand, type of installation, roofing material, and color, as well as product performance.

6.Product Type: See Cool Roof Rating Council’s directory. Generally product types include single-ply roof, wood shingles, asphalt roof, metal roof, tile roof.

7.R-value Deck Insulation: If one of the exceptions selected includes adding roof deck insulation, indicate the R-value of insulation.

8.Proposed Initial Solar Reflectance: Based on the product chosen from the Cool Roof Rating Council’s Rated Product Directory. If using default assumption indicate NA since the Aged Solar Reflectance is available.

9.Proposed Aged Solar Reflectance: Value is from the Cool Roof Rating Council’s Rated Product Directory. If the aged value is not available, calculate the calculated Aged

Solar Reflectance using the Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) Calculation worksheet located on the California Energy Commission website

(http://energy.ca.gov/title24/2013standards/documents/solar_reflectance/) or the aging equation ρaged=[0.2+β[ρinitial-0.2], where ρinitial = the initial solar reflectance and soiling resistance β is listed by product type below.

10.Proposed Thermal Emittance: From the product specification default value. If using a calculated SRI place the Thermal Emittance used to calculate SRI.

11.Proposed SRI: It is optional to meet the SRI but if chosen to do so, use the Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) Calculation Worksheet found on the California Energy Commission website http://www.energy.ca.gov/title24/2013standards/documents/solar_reflectance/.

12.Minimum Required Aged Solar Reflectance: Based on climate zone and roof slope.

13.Minimum Required Thermal Emittance: Based on climate zone and roof slope.

14.Minimum Required SRI: Based on climate zone and roof slope.

NOTE: If the cool roofing requirements will be met by a liquid field applied coating, Section 110.8(i)4 requires the coating be applied across the entire roof surface and meet the dry mil thickness or coverage recommended by the manufacturer.

F. Fenestration/Glazing Allowed Areas and Efficiencies (Section 150.2(b)1)

The climate zone and scope of the alteration will affect the amount of fenestration (also known as glazing) allowed. If limited to 20%, this is calculated as Conditioned Floor Area x 0.20 = total ft2 of fenestration allowed (20%). Fenestration areas are expressed in feet, not inches. When west-facing fenestration is limited (in climate zones 2, 4, and 6-16), it is limited to a maximum of 5%. Additions of 1,000 ft2 or less have alternate requirements. For example, the limit may be 120 ft2 of fenestration or 25%. While west-facing fenestration may be limited, if there is no west fenestration the upper limit remains at 120 ft2 or 25% (or the values shown in columns 2 and 3).

1.Alteration Type: Auto-filled with the project scope in A13: adding fenestration/glazing, replacing fenestration/glazing, adding fenestration/glazing ≤ 75 ft2 windows, replacing fenestration/glazing ≤ 75 ft2 window, adding fenestration/glazing ≤ 16 ft2 skylight and or replacing fenestration/glazing skylights.

2.Maximum Allowed Fenestration Area for All Orientations (ft2): The maximum total fenestration area is 20%. Depending on the type of fenestration and the alteration type, this field may show values such as 75 ft2.

3.Maximum Allowed West-Facing Fenestration Area Only: Calculated value based on Conditioned Floor Area multiplied by 5%(Used in climate zones 2, 4, and 6-16)

NOTE: (1) If adding fenestration/glazing ≤ 16 ft2 skylight, enter NA

(2)West includes any vertical fenestration oriented to within 45 degrees of true west, including 45 degrees south of west. For skylights, west also includes any skylight area facing any direction with a pitch of less than 1:12

NOTE: Doors with glazing are counted in one of two ways. A door with 50% or more glazing is counted as the entire door area. A door with less than 50% glazing can be counted as the entire door area or can be calculated as the actual glass area with a 2-inch (0.17 ft2) frame all around.

3.Frame type: Metal, metal thermal break, or non-metal.

4.Dynamic Glazing: Indicate if the fenestration has integrated shading device, chromogenic glazing, or none for no dynamic glazing. Chromogenic glazing shall be considered separately from other fenestration types.

5.Orientation (North, East, South, West). In climate zones where the West-facing glazing is limited, list west-facing individually. The definitions in the Energy Standards include these specific details:

•North is oriented to within 45 degrees of true north, including 45 degrees east of north;

•East is oriented to within 45 degrees of true east, including 45 degrees south of east;

•South is oriented to within 45 degrees of true south, including 45 degrees west of south;

•West is oriented to within 45 degrees of true west, including 45 degrees north of west.

NOTE: Skylights in a roof pitch greater than 1:12 can be included as facing the same orientation as that portion of the roof angle. If the skylight is in a roof with a pitch less than 1:12, the skylight is assumed to face west.

6.Number of Panes: Indicate the number of panes for each Tag/ID; is it single, double, or triple pane window?

7.Proposed Fenestration Area (ft2): Indicate the area (in ft2) of each exterior fenestration type, excluding west-facing fenestration.

If any products (other than skylights) have a higher U-factor than 0.32, first complete a CF1R-ENV-02 to calculate the Area-Weighted Average U-factor, and attach it to the CF1R-ALT-01.

NOTE: Dynamic glazing is a glazing system that changes its performance U-factor and SHGC based on the physical environment. Dynamic glazing includes chromogenic glazing or integrated shading systems (this does not include internally or externally mounted shading devices). If using dynamic glazing, use the lowest tested U-factor and SHGC in Columns 9 and 11.
