With reference to ASHRAE 90.1-2007, Exception ‘a’ in section G3.1.1 which states that we should use additional system types for nonpredominant conditions if they apply to more than 20,000 SF of conditioned space – I am confused which system type I should use for my corridors and other non-residential conditioned spaces, which are about 21,000 SF total, spread across 20 floors. Do I use System 7, because my non-residential spaces are located on more than 5 floors, or use System 3 or 5 because the area is less than 25,000 SF?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Ritwik Kakati, LEED</span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'> Green Associate</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Design Engineer</span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Eras Medium ITC","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>DAGHER ENGINEERING, </span><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Eras Medium ITC","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>PLLC</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>29 Broadway, New York, NY 10006<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>T. 212.480.2591 x140<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>F. 212.480.2654<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><a href="mailto:rkakati@dagherengineering.com">rkakati@dagherengineering.com</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><a href="http://www.dagherengineering.com">www.dagherengineering.com</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#006600'>Save Trees, Consider the Environment.
