copy in front of me, but I can’t find it on LEED-online anymore. I wonder
if they changed their minds? I attached a scanned copy of the CIR, and the

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I question the CIR. I couldn’t
find anything in the code that said system 1 has to be 0.3 W/cfm, and they were
not able to point to a code document that says this. They just told me I have
to per the CIR. It doesn’t significantly impact the results in my
project, and I have already spent days addressing comments that are insignificant
to the results, so I just left it alone.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I have a question, for hotel buildings the baseline HVAC
system type to be used should be PTAC/PTHP (ductless).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This proposed building will be composed by a chilled water
system with air handling units and fan coils, all of them fully ducted return.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Is it possible to use the fan power limitation pressure drop
adjustment indicated in ASHRAE 90.1 for increasing the baseline fan power?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The question is because in G3.1.2.9 it seems that it is only
allowed for systems 3 through 8.<o:p></o:p></p>
