| TQ177 Temperature Logging if there is no fixed heating | v4.1 | November 2022 | EHC | Link | |
|
Approved Ruling: NZGBC advises that the temperature logging results would not be appropriate to show compliance for this credit. Also, we are curious as to how this would be available at the time of certification. Hence to show compliance for the credit without a heating source, an ECCHO or dynamic simulation modeling would be required to show that the house would be thermally comfortable or below 15kwh/m2a heating demand. See appendix B of V4 Technical Manual. |
