Learning Objectives

• Basic requirements of the DOE Zero Energy Ready Home program• Program requirements of LEED v4 rating system• DOEZERH alternative compliance path to meet LEED prerequisites and credits. 

• DOEZERH pathway can streamline certification process, specifically for production builders

A Rater’s Perspective on DOEZERH

• What is Zero Energy Ready?• Interesting Findings• Sticking Points• Results

Page 15: New to LEED Certification: Production Builder Streamlining ... · New Pathways to LEED Certification: Production Builder Streamlining & DOE Zero ... LEED v4 Homes and ... leed‐v4‐homes‐design‐and‐

What does DOE mean by Zero Energy Ready?

• Can a HERS 55 home get to Zero Energy?• Sure, with enough roof area

• 12.5kW pV = HERS 0  • 1000 ‐ 1250 sq ft of pV

Page 16: New to LEED Certification: Production Builder Streamlining ... · New Pathways to LEED Certification: Production Builder Streamlining & DOE Zero ... LEED v4 Homes and ... leed‐v4‐homes‐design‐and‐

DOEZE Ready H

• DOEZERH uses HERS targets

• Future Proof• Rock solid envelope • Easy energy neutral later

What is Zero Energy Ready?

Maximize• Thermal Envelope• Mechanicals• Everything else

• Lowest HERS is ~40• 8kW pV = HERS 0

• 650 sq ft of pV

DOEZERH isn’t Rocket Science

Page 20: New to LEED Certification: Production Builder Streamlining ... · New Pathways to LEED Certification: Production Builder Streamlining & DOE Zero ... LEED v4 Homes and ... leed‐v4‐homes‐design‐and‐

Interesting Findings

• “Mandatory” 2012 IECC insulation levels• Envelope U‐factor is tradable in DOEZERH

• “God is in the footnotes.” 

• Mandatory Windows• is actuallyMandatory is actually mandatory

• 100% Ducts inside envelope• Or footnote 16 if you want to make your life difficult

ZERH Builder Sticking Points

Maybe trickyIndoor Air Plus items• Moisture control

• Aggregate under slabs?• Radon System

• Poly / pipe / *plug*• Duct system 

• Protection / Cleaning• 100% in conditioned space (?)

• Attached garages• Test the connection or (big!) fan

• Materials• Paints, carpets, cabinets, wood

ZERH Builder Sticking Points

Hot water delivery systems

• Meet WaterSense, more or less

• Might be easier to just do WaterSense!

ZERH + Water Efficiency ~ LEED 

To earn 3 water efficiency points, install WaterSense qualified products, such as:

1.5 gpm lavatory faucets for 1 point or 1.0 gpm faucets for 2 points

1.75 gpm showers for 1 point or 1.5 gpm for 2 points

1.1 gpf toilets for 1 point

or ENERGY STAR qualified clothes washers for 1 point

Projects may also earn up to 4 points by installing water savings landscaping, specifically minimizing turf area
