2. HERS raters are special inspectors certified by the California Energy Commission (CEC) to rate
homes in California according to the Home Energy Rating System (HERS).
[BSC] When required by the enforcing agency, the owner or the responsible entity acting as the owner's
agent shall employ one or more special inspectors to provide inspection or other duties necessary to
substantiate compliance with this code. Special inspectors shall demonstrate competence to the
satisfaction of the enforcing agency for the particular type of inspection or task to be performed. In
addition, the special inspector shall have a certification from a recognized state, national or international
association, as determined by the local agency. The area of certification shall be closely related to the
primary job function, as determined by the local agency.
Note: Special inspectors shall be independent entities with no financial interest in the materials or
the project they are inspecting for compliance with this code.

4.505 INTERIOR MOISTURE CONTROL

4.505.1 General. Buildings shall meet or exceed the provisions of the California Building Standards Code.

703 VERIFICATIONS

4.505.2 CONCRETE SLAB FOUNDATIONS. Concrete slab foundations required to have a vapor retarder by
California Building Code, Chapter 19, or concrete slab-on-ground floors required to have a vapor retarder
by the California Residential Code, Chapter 5, shall also comply with this section.

703.1 DOCUMENTATION.

4.505.2.1 Capillary break. A capillary break shall be installed in compliance with at least one of the
following:
1. A 4-inch (101.6 mm) thick base of 1/2 inch (12.7mm) or larger clean aggregate shall be provided
with a vapor barrier in direct contact with concrete and a concrete mix design, which will address
bleeding, shrinkage, and curling, shall be used. For additional information, see American Concrete
Institute, ACI 302.2R-06.
2.

Other equivalent methods approved by the enforcing agency.

3.

A slab design specified by a licensed design professional.

4.505.3 MOISTURE CONTENT OF BUILDING MATERIALS. Building materials with visible signs of water
damage shall not be installed. Wall and floor framing shall not be enclosed when the framing members
exceed 19 percent moisture content. Moisture content shall be verified in compliance with the following:
1. Moisture content shall be determined with either a probe-type or contact-type moisture meter.
Equivalent moisture verification methods may be approved by the enforcing agency and shall satisfy
requirements found in Section 101.8 of this code.
2. Moisture readings shall be taken at a point 2 feet (610 mm) to 4 feet (1219 mm) from the grade
stamped end of each piece verified.
3. At least three random moisture readings shall be performed on wall and floor framing with
documentation acceptable to the enforcing agency provided at the time of approval to enclose the wall
and floor framing.
Insulation products which are visibly wet or have a high moisture content shall be replaced or allowed to
dry prior to enclosure in wall or floor cavities. Wet-applied insulation products shall follow the
manufacturers' drying recommendations prior to enclosure.

4.506 INDOOR AIR QUALITY AND EXHAUST

4.506.1 Bathroom exhaust fans. Each bathroom shall be mechanically ventilated and shall comply with the
following:
1.

Fans shall be ENERGY STAR compliant and be ducted to terminate outside the building.

2. Unless functioning as a component of a whole house ventilation system, fans must be controlled by a
humidity control.
a. Humidity controls shall be capable of adjustment between a relative humidity range less than or
equal to 50% to a maximum of 80%. A humidity control may utilize manual or automatic means of
adjustment.
b. A humidity control may be a separate component to the exhaust fan and is not required to be
integral (i.e., built-in)
Notes:
1. For the purposes of this section, a bathroom is a room which contains a bathtub, shower or
tub/shower combination.
2.

Lighting integral to bathroom exhaust fans shall comply with the California Energy Code.

4.507 ENVIRONMENTAL COMFORT

4.507.2 HEATING AND AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM DESIGN. Heating and air conditioning systems shall
be sized, designed and have their equipment selected using the following methods:
1. The heat loss and heat gain is established according to ANSI/ACCA 2 Manual J - 2004 (Residential
Load Calculation), ASHRAE handbooks or other equivalent design software or methods.
2. Duct systems are sized according to ANSI/ACCA 1 Manual D - 2009 (Residential Duct Systems),
ASHRAE handbooks or other equivalent design software or methods.
3. Select heating and cooling equipment according to ANSI/ACCA 3 Manual S - 2004 (Residential
Equipment Selection), or other equivalent design software or methods.
Exception: Use of alternate design temperatures necessary to ensure the system functions are
acceptable.

Documentation used to show compliance with this code shall include
but is not limited to, construction documents, plans, specifications, builder or installer certification,
inspection reports, or other methods acceptable to the enforcing agency which demonstrate substantial
conformance. When specific documentation or special inspection is necessary to verify compliance, that
method of compliance will be specified in the appropriate section or identified applicable checklist.

HERS FEATURE SUMMARY

OVERHANGS AND FINS

The following is a summary of the features that must be field-verified by a certified HERS Rater as a condition for meeting the modeled energy performance for this computer analysis. Additional detail is
provided in the building components tables below.

ENERGY DESIGN RATING
This is the sum of the annual TDV energy consumption for energy use components included in the performance compliance approach for the Standard Design Building (Energy Budget) and the annual
TDV energy consumption for lighting and components not regulated by Title 24, Part 6 (such as domestic appliances and consumer electronics) and accounting for the annual TDV energy offset by an
on-site renewable energy system.
