anyone run a baseline building for a retrofit building to
qualify a business owner for the Section 179D tax
deduction? It seems simple enough to model the existing
building based on ASHRAE 90.1 standards. Has anyone found
any potential “hiccups” along the way that has prevented
the up to $1.80/sq tax deduction aside from the obvious of
not meeting the energy upgrade percentage? <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Here’s
my main concern. I have a cabinet manufacturer customer
who has a 100,000sf metal building that is roughly 30%
wood working or manufacturing, 65% warehouse storage and
5% office space. 95% of this facility is heated only. Do
I have to include cooling in the baseline from ASHRAE 90.1
system 5 on appendix G, table G3.1.1.A? The only upgrades
we are proposing are to take out the air rotation unit and
radiant tube vacuum systems and a few other minor items.
