[Bldg-sim] LEED Baseline Chiller Condenser Type

[Doebber, Ian]

Does anyone know when an Air Cooled Chiller can be used as the baseline
for a building that requires a Standard VAV System as the baseline HVAC
system for LEED V2.2 New Construction.

 

ASHRAE 90.1-2004 Appendix G makes it clear that a Cooling Tower must be
used.  

 

Yet an old Credit Interpretation Report  (CIR) for LEED V2.0 states that
an Air Cooled Chiller can be used as the baseline for any chiller under
150 tons.
