In this recording we will discuss ASHRAE Standards and its relevance to LEED Certification. This presentation is a part our LEED Exam Preparation course. Visit us @ www.greenbuildingacademy.co
Visit us @ www.greenbuildingacademy.co Agenda About ASHRAE ASHRAE 90.1 2010 ASHRAE 62.1 2010 ASHRAE 55 2010 ASHRAE 52.2 2007 ASHRAE 189.1 This presentation would take around 10 minutes. We will start with understanding ASHRAE then we will discuss various ASHRAE standards such as 90.1, 621.1,55,52.2 and 189.1 as how they relate to LEED Certification.The years mentioned here like 2010 and 2007 are the versions of ASHRAE which is referred in LEED V4 Visit us @ www.greenbuildingacademy.co
Visit us @ www.greenbuildingacademy.co About ASHRAE ASHRAE is an acronym for American Society for Heating Refrigeration and Air conditioning Engineers ASHRAE is an international voluntary organization for people involved in heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) Industry ASHRAE has extended its role beyond HVAC & R. For example ASHRAE standard 90.1 stipulates minimum performance requirements for Building envelope, lighting, motors etc.. ASHRAE is an abbreviation of American Society of Heating Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers. Even though A in ASHRAE refers to America, ASHRAE standards are internationally accepted in the industry. ASHRAE is an International voluntary organization for people in Heating Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry. In recent years ASHRAE has extended its role beyond HVAC industry for instance ASHRAE 90.1 stipulates minimum performance requirements for building envelope, lighting, motors etc..

Visit us @ www.greenbuildingacademy.co ASHRAE 90.1 2010 EA Minimum and Optimum Energy Performance SS Light Pollution Reduction ASHRAE 90.1 is the Energy Standard for buildings except low rise residential buildings. It is mainly referred in LEED EA Credits Minimum and Optimum Energy Performance. Projects should comply with mandatory requirements of ASHRAE 90.1 and should demonstrate atleast 5% reduction is energy cost compared to base line energy cost. Energy Simulation has to be performed as per Appendix G of ASHRAE standard. ASHRAE 90.1 is also addressed Sustainable Sites credit Light Pollution Reduction. The requirement is exterior Lighting Power density should not exceed ASHRAE 90.1 limits Visit us @ www.greenbuildingacademy.co
