a.                                R-values are minimums. U-factors and SHGC are maximums. R-19 insulation shall be permitted to be compressed into a 2X6 cavity.

b.                                The fenestration U-factor column excludes skylights. The solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) column applies to all glazed fenestration.   

c.                                The first R-value applies to continuous insulation, the second to framing cavity insulation; either insulation meets the requirement.

d.                                R-5 shall be added to the required slab edge R-values for heated slabs.

e.                                There are no solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) requirements in the Marine Zone.

f.                                 Or insulation sufficient to fill the framing cavity, R-19 minimum.

g.                                “13+5” means R-13 cavity insulation plus R-5 insulated sheathing. If structural sheathing covers 25% or less of the exterior, R-5 sheathing is not required where structural sheathing is used.  If structural sheathing covers more than

25% of exterior, structural sheathing shall be supplemented with insulated sheathing of at least R-2.

h.                                Slab edge insulation may be eliminated for slab on grade floors when heating systems efficiency rating is 90% or better.
