INSTALLATION MEASURES
All materials/measures installed shall be justified utilizing the Energy Audit Procedures established by the
Governor's Office of Energy Poliey(OEP).
ENERGY AUDIT PROCEDURE
The Weatherization Assistance Program (WA?) Energy Audit Procedure is to be used by all sub-grantees to gather
record and analyze data on structures. This data is to be used to deliver weatherization materials/measures in a
fashion that protects the health and safety of the client, increases the durability of the structure, increases the comfort
of the client and reduces the energy cost to the client in a cost effective manner.
The following audit activities must be completed on all homes utilizing WAP funds.
A site audit is to be completed that records all of the relevant data on the structure that is needed to perform cost
effectiveness tests.
The Cost Effectiveness Procedure must be followed to determine cost effectiveness of potential weatherization
materials/measures.
The Pressure Diagnostic Procedure must be completed and the fmdings documented following the Reporting
procedures.
A health and safety audit of the structures must be completed and the findings documented following the Reporting
procedures.
A final inspection of the structure must be completed and findings documented following the final Inspection
Procedures.
COST EFFECTIVENESS PROCEDURE
WAP has incorporated a performance-based energy audit procedure that focuses on optimizing investment in energy
efficiency through a systems approach. To enable the WAP program to optimize the investment in. energy
efficiency, the following requirements have been established for the audit procedure:
The energy audit procedure must determine that each weatherization material/measure is cost effective by ensuring
the savings-to-investment ratio (SIR) is greater or equal to one.
The energy audit procedure must assign priorities among weatheriza.tion materials/measures in descending order of
SIR and must account for interactions between architectural and mechanical measures.
Subg;rantees have the option to utilize the DOE approved priority list for their climate zone and building type or
utilize a site specific REM Design to create a new list of measure that will replace the DOE approved priority list. If
a REM design is conducted, it is expected that all measures listed on the DOE approved priority list will be meet in
addition to any other measures for which the REM Design is being conducted for.
The energy audit procedure must ensure that the overall Silt for the entire package of materials/measures, including
the cost of incidental repairs, is greater or equal to one. Incidental repairs are only allowed if they are necessary to
make the installation of weatherization materials effective.
Funds spent to abate energy related health and safety hazards do not need to be included in the preceding
requirements. Funds can be spent to eliminate health and safety hazards when the elimination of the hazard is
necessary before or because of the installation of weatherization materials.
Written authorization must be received from the OEP before the installation of measures/materials that do not meet
the Cost Effectiveness or Health and Safety Requirements established by the WAP program.
1

To determine the cost effectiveness of weatherization materials/measures, the contractor must use a computer audit
approved by the OEP or an appropriate priority list for homes that meet the criteria contained in the list.
CLIMATE ZONES
Arizona Climate Zones used for the Cost Effective Priority Lists are the International Energy Conservation Code
(IECC) 2009and can be found at littp://energycode,pnl.gov/EnergyCodeReqs/?state=Arizona
FUEL SWITCHING
The Wcatherization Assistance Program does not permit the general practice of fuel switching when replacing
heating, cooling or water heating equipment. The changing or converting equipment using one fuel source to another
will be considered on a limited ease-by-case basis only.
Written authorization must be received from the OEP prior to changing or converting equipment using one fuel
source to another.
DOE Approved Priority Lists
Current Priority list was approved by DOE in September 2011
A computer audit is required if
There are potential cost-effective energy upgrades to the house that are not fisted on the priority list
There are not sufficient funds to complete all the measures; including energy related health and safety measures and
other energy related repairs.
Energy related incidental repairs of more than $100 are included with the energy upgrades.
It is expected that if a site specific computer audit is conducted, that the measures listed for the respected climate
zone and building type are modeled with any additional measure and that the savings to investment report is run
ranking all measures by SIR from greatest return to lowest.

DURABILITY MEASURES
Measure installed to protect or insure the long-term effectiveness energy measures are allowed. Total expenditures
are subject to budget limitations.
PRESSURE DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
The pressure diagnostic procedures are to be followed when performing air leakage diagnostics and repair. These
procedures provide crews with immediate feedback on the effectiveness of air sealing work, insure that repairs will
provide long-term energy benefit in a safe manner, and provide essential management information needed to
monitor the cost effectiveness of the air sealing programs. Pressure Diagnostic Decision Tree
The pressure diagnostic decision tree provides assistance to agency personnel in identifying the minimum level of
pressure testing that needs to be performed to meet the Weatherization Program requirements. The decision tree is
comprised of two levels of housing characteristics and corresponding test requirements. In all cases, air sealing can
only be performed in conjunction with pressure diagnostics.
Level One: Homes with Central Forced Air Heating or Cooling
The complete pressure diagnostic process must be followed in all cases on homes with a central forced air heating
or cooling system. (Evaporative cooling is not considered a forced air system in this case.)
Level Two: Homes with No Central Forced Air Heating or Cooling
The use of pressure diagnostic process is optional in homes that do not have a central forced air heating or cooling
system and that do not contain the characteristics listed below.
Possible cost effective envelope sealing: Pressure diagnostics must be completed on homes where the cost of space
heating and/or cooling provides possible cost effective envelope sealing opportunities.
16

Combustion appliance zone testing: The Worst Case Pressure Test must be performed in all zones that contain a
combustion appliance.
Testing Procedure
When performing pressure diagnostic, crews are required to use the following procedures IN SEQUENCE. If a test
is not performed, documentation must be provided in all cases stating the rational for not following the testing
procedure.
1. Initial air leakage and room pressure tests
Duct repair
Envelope air sealing
Room pressure balancing
I. Initial Air Leakage and Room Pressure Tests:
These initial tests will provide reference information on the existing condition of the home. This information will be
used to determine what retrofit measures are to be completed and their effectiveness.
Perform a complete energy audit and combustion safety test of the house. No pressure testing or air sealing can he
done until the required combustion safety procedure is completed
A. Perform Room Pressure Tests (dominant duct leakage test, room pressure test, and combustion appliance zone [CAZ]
test) and record pressures. List combustion appliances located in rooms tested. If a pressure of —3 Pascal's (Pa) or
more exists in a CAZ, or the possibility exists that repair work will create a pressure of-3 Pa or more in a CAZ,
corrective action must be completed before or in conjunction with air sealing or duct repair. Discuss possible
corrective action with the client. If client refuses to allow corrective action to be completed, no air sealing or duct
repair can be completed.
Perform zonal pressures and record the results.
Perform initial Whole House CFM50 Test and record the results.
Perform Pressure Pan Test and record initial pressure difference.
F. Based on the results of the energy audit, combustion safety tests, and pressure tests, determine the extent of
work to be completed.
2. Duct Repair Procedure:
Duct repair can only be performed under the supervision of a trained technician.
In all cases, air sealing can only be performed in conjunction with pressure diagnostics.
The Health and Safety Policy must be followed at all times.
Perform duct repair using approved products (see Product Guidelines) and repair techniques (see Duct Repair
Techniques).
D. After initial duct repair is performed, evaluate if additional duct repair is possible.
E. Once all attainable duct leakage is repaired, perform post duct repair Whole House CFM50 Test and
pressure pan readings. The difference between the initial Whole House CFM50 Test and the post duct repair Whole
House CFM50 Test will provide the CFM reduction in duct leakage.
3. Envelope Air Sealing Procedure:
All duct repairs must be completed before envelope air sealing.
Envelope air sealing can only be performed under the supervision of a trained technician.
In all cases, air sealing can only be performed in conjunction with pressure diagnostics.
D. The Health and Safety Policy must be followed at all times.
E. Perform air sealing with high-quality products. Weatherization products must be permanent and
guaranteed for at least 15 years.
F. Repeat Whole House CFM50 Test after air sealing work is performed and evaluate if additional air sealing
is possible (see Health and Safety Policy for CFM ventilation requirements).
.Once air sealing is completed, perform final Whole House CFM50 Test and record results.

4. Room Pressure Balancing:
All duct repair and air sealing must be completed before room pressure balancing.
In Room all cases, pressure room balancing can only be performed under the supervision of a trained technician.
The Health and Safety pressure Policy balancing must be can followed only be performed in conjunction with pressure diagnostics.

D. Building Cavities Used as Returns
with • embedded If the cavity is lined with Sheetrock, seal all joints with mastic. All gaps over 1/4 inch must be reinforced

20

• If the cavity is lined with duct board with the fiberglass side facing inside, you must create a positive air
barrier in the plenum by covering the fiberglass with a material such as Sheetrock, duct board with the foil facing
inside, or coat the fiberglass with mastic, etc., and seal all remaining joints in the plenum.
• If the cavity is unlined (exposed studs) and it is impossible to line the plenum, seal all joints, holes and
penetrations using mastic applied with a brush attached to a handle or other extension. It may be easier and more
effective to simply create a ducted plenum or chase and avoid the problems associated with using a building cavity
to convey conditioned air.
It may be necessary to cut a hole in the plenum in order to gain access and seal the interior adequately.
E. Air Handler
• Seal all penetrations and gaps between materials using mastic or silicone. If the gap is over V4 inch,
reinforce with fiberglass mesh.
• Seal the areas where the air handler meets the supply/return plenums using mastic reinforced with
fiberglass mesh or other approved methods.
• Seal any panels that will require frequent access by the client (such as the filter area), using a quality
temporary tape (duct tape).
• The air handier must not have any noticeable leaks.
F. Wall Penetrations
(The most common wall penetration problem is where the opening for the return grille is cut through the wall. In
such an installation, even in a lined plenum, the wall cavity is open into the plenum.)

• The cavity will first be blocked using a rigid air barrier such as Sheetrock or duct board with the foil facing
the airflow.
• All seams, cracks, crevices, and openings will then be sealed airtight using approved mastic.
Duct Product Guidelines
All new ductwork will be a minimum of R-8.
Duct sealing materials shall have both excellent cohesive and adhesive qualities.
Water-based Latex mastic with at least 50 percent solids reinforced with fiberglass mesh at all duct connections,
joints and seams shall be used. "Hardcast" type mastic with reinforcing mesh is also acceptable.
• The ducts shall be further attached as per manufacturer's specification, using a draw tie, plumbing strap or
screws, • as appropriate for a strong mechanical connection. The mechanical connection does not replace air sealing.
Foil tapes, including UL 181 AP-type tapes, when used alone will not be accepted. If tape is used to
temporarily hold a seam, it must be overlaid with a coating of mastic that extends at least one inch (1") past the tape
on all sides, and is thick enough to hide the tape completely.
• Do not use materials that are potentially damaging or have harmful effects, such as toxic vapors or
maintain carcinogenic substances that may be harmful to the clients or the installer. Agencies are required to obtain and
the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for all materials used on the job. Federal law requires this
procedure; further information is available locally from the vendor.
• Materials must meet all current codes and manufacturer's specifications.
INSULATION STANDARDS
Installation of Insulation
Insulation must be installed with no gaps, no voids, no compression of the insulation, or no wind intrusion into the
insulation. Insulation must also be in alignment with the air barrier in all cases.

The inspector shall complete diagnostics on minimum of ten percent of completed homes to compare with reported
results.
REALTFI AND SAFETY PLAN
Allowable energy related health and safety actions are those actions necessary to maintain the physical well being of
both the occupants and/or weatherization workers where:
Costs are reasonable as determined by DOE in accordance with this approved Master Plan;
The actions must be taken to effectively perform weatherization; or
The actions are necessary as a result of weatherization work.
Each subgrantee will have 20% of their program operations set aside for energy related health and safety repairs.
Each subgrantee will be responsible for the management of their health and safety budget and will be required to bill
health and safety repairs as a separate budget line item. Subgrantees will also be required to obtain written approval
from OEP for all health and safety repairs exceeding $2000. Subgrantees are also reminded that any health and
safety expenses in excess of 20% of subgrantee program operations budget will result in disallowed cost.
Home Assessment & Client Evaluation
The weatherizing subgrantee must determine presence of at-risk occupants before proceeding with evaluation
services. The Client Health & Safety Evaluation form must be reviewed and signed by the client and evaluator
before the evaluation is started. (This form has been drafted and will be implemented 7/1/12)
Crew and client H&S issues are viewed as closely linked in the areas of site conditions and work procedures.
Working from this concept, which assumes that any hazard associated with a work site, whether it is a work
practice, an existing condition, client behavior, and so forth, has the potential of harming both crew and client, a
holistic approach towards H&S is taken throughout the entire process of weatherizing a home, with special emphasis
given to the initial inspection.
The initial audit, by a qualified Auditor/ Inspector, should include sensory inspections and diagnostic testing as
listed in the WAP guidelines to verify the existing conditions of the home and any Health & Safety issues that could
arise or halt production on said home. Details on existing conditions that could hinder Weatherization are listed
below.
All of this is contingent on having well trained inspectors/ auditors. H&S issues are revealed before any work is ever
done. This goes a long way towards preventing any harm befalling either crew or client.
Occupant Preexisting or Potential Health Conditions
A feature of any inspection includes client education, whereby the occupant's health problems are addressed. Once a
clear understanding has been reached between the program inspector and the occupant, work practices will be
deployed so as not to aggravate any preexisting condition. In some rare instances, a deferral may be the only
solution.
When a person's health may be at risk and/or the work activities could constitute a health & safety hazard, the
occupant at risk will be required to take appropriate action based on severity of risk. Temporary relocation of at-risk
occupants may be allowed on a case by case basis. Failure or the inability to take appropriate actions must result in
deferral.
Occupants will be required to reveal known or suspected health concerns as part of initial application for
weatherization. The occupants of the dwelling will be screened again during the audit. The client must be provided
23

with information of known risks. It will also require that worker contact information (in the form of agency
weatherization office staff phone numbers) be given to the client so client can inform of any issues
Health & Safety Issues
As potential hazards are identified by the Initial Auditor/ Inspector in the Home Assessment & Client Evaluation as
listed above, they are analyzed in terms of their severity and how they will be dealt with up to and including
deferral. Wherever possible, measures should be considered through the cost justification method of an SIR>I as an
Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) first, before using funds from the H&S allocation. Clients must always be
informed of any Health or Safety risk discovered during the evaluation process in writing and written confirmation
of receipt of that information by the client must be obtained and kept in the client file. A listing of Health and
Safety issues are compiled, any of which that can't be corrected can result in a deferral on any given project. They
are as follows:
Air Conditioning and Heating Safety

conditions warrant, unless prevented by other guidance herein. Arizona climate involves a defined heating and
cooling season with a Heating Degree Day (HDD) measurement range from 1180 to over 7200. The Cooling Degree
Day (CDD) measurements in Arizona range from 573 to more than 5100. Arizona has a vast difference across the
state due to the four recognized climate zones and a the vast difference in elevation changes from a few hundred feet
above sea level to more than 7000 feet above sea level.

Correction of preexisting code compliance issues is not an allowable cost other than where they are triggered by
performing weatherization measures. State and local (or jurisdiction having authority) codes must be followed while
installing weatherization measures. Condemned properties and properties where "red tagged" health and safety

allowed when testing or inspection indicates a problem. Combustion safety testing is required when combustion
appliances are present.
Correction of venting issues shall be completed and should be done as an incidental repair when it is a component of
an ECM. Proper venting to the outside for combustion appliances, including gas dryers is required. Combustion
safety testing is required when combustion appliances are present. Inspections, by the Initial Auditor/ Inspector in
the Home Assessment & Client Evaluation as listed above, must include:
Inspections of venting of combustion appliance and confirmation of adequate clearances to combustibles.
Testing natural draft appliances for draft and spillage under worse case conditions before and after air sealing.
Inspection of cooking burners for operability and flame quality. Replacement of Cook stoves is not allowed. Repair

appliances.
Clients must be provided information and explanation of combustion safety and hazards information, including the
importance of using exhaust ventilation when cooking and the importance of keeping burners clean to limit the
production of CO.
Drainage — gutters, down spouts, extensions, flashing, sump pumps, landscapes, etc.
Drainage repairs are allowed with H&S funds only as they relate to code compliance. A repair is allowed as
incidental repair when it is a component of an efficiency measure, but must be cost justified with the ECM(s).
Major drainage issues are beyond the scope of the Weatherization Assistance Program. Homes with conditions that
may create a serious health concern that require more than incidental repair should be deferred. See Mold and

Lead Based Paint
Presence of lead based paint associated with dwellings built before 1978. State policy mandates that all personnel
working directly on dwellings shall participate in an eight (8) hour Lead Workers Safety class. With respect to Lead
Based Paint issues, AZ WX uses an approach that addresses client safety and awareness, worker safety and
awareness, and on-site practices.
The head of household of pre-1978 homes to be weatherized receives the informational pamphlet: "Renovating
Right". The inspector will also conduct a client education segment as part of the initial inspection to assure that the
occupants are fully aware of the hazards posed by Lead Based Paint exposure. This procedure is documented by
using a signed receipt from the head of household which confirms that the information was not only distributed, but
also explained. This receipt is kept in the client file.
All workers on site on any Weatherization project, whether they be a crew based employee of one of the
subcontractors or a private sector contractor, must complete an eight (8) hour Lead Safe Worker Practices
Workshop. The aim of this course is to inform the worker about Lead hazards and the proper ways to deal with
them, and in doing so, to work in such a way as to not expose client families (and their own families) to these
hazards. All crews and contractors are required to carry BrEPA vacuum machines, respirators, disposable bio suits,
and all other items associated with safe Lead Work Practices.
The program manual addresses this area specifically with detailed guidance for onsite protocols:
.Wear a tight fitting respirator and disposable coveralls.
•Seal work areas within a home with tape and plastic. Cover furniture, carpet, and other surfaces with plastic drop
cloths or tarps.
-Spray water on disturbed areas to minimize dust.
-Clean-up work area each day. Sweep carefully and wet mop as needed. Use a 1-1EPA vacuum cleaner to collect dust
and paint chips.
'Keep children away from work area at all times.
While this represents only a summary of the overall Lead Safe Practices and training, it illustrates AZ Wrs
awareness of the issue and how it is integral to any weatherization project.
Lead Safe Weatherization work practices occur only due to health and safety concerns. It cannot be considered part
of an efficiency measure and shall always be calculated and charged as a health and safety cost.
OEP's monitoring staff will have oversight responsibility in this area. While Lead Safe Work Practices have long
been built into the program, the monitors will focus more directly on this area as they conduct their monitoring
visits. Program operators will be required to show that all Lead Based Paint protocols: information sharing, lead safe
work practices, proper equipment, and so forth are up to dale and in compliance to all regulations whatever they turn
out to be. Those programs that are not in compliance, and fail to comply once identified, will face the most serious
sanctions that can be leveled: reduced allocation to start with, loss of contract if necessary. Special attention will be
aimed at those programs failing to meet requirements in the area of Lead Safe Work Practices since it poses such
tangible consequences for the households that are served.
Subgrantees must follow EPA's lead; Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP). In addition to RAP, Weatherization
requires all weatherization crews working in pre-1978 housing to be trained in Lead Safe Weatherization (LSW).
Deferral is required when the extent and condition of lead-based paint in the house would potentially create further
health and safety hazards.

Space Heaters, Unvented Combustion
Unvented combustion space heaters are not considered a primary heat source. Removal is required, except as
be secondary removed heat source and where the unit conforms to ANSI Z21.112. Units that do not meet ANSI Z21.11.2 must
free carbon monoxide prior to weatherization but may remain until a replacement heating system is in place. Testing for air-
Z21.11.1 label. (CO) is to be performed per the Energy Out West Field Guide. All units must have an ANSE
The client must be informed of the dangers of =vented space beaters — CO, Moisture, NO2, CO can be dangerous
even if CO alarm does not sound. The replacement system must be operational and inspected using all Energy Out
West Field Guide test protocols before any other weatherization begins
Space Heaters, Vented Combustion

These units will be treated as furnaces. The Energy Out West Field Guide details the testing required during an
evaluation. The replacement system must be operational and inspected using all Energy Out West Field Guide test
protocols before any other weatherization begins.
Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF)
Use EPA recommendations (available online at
space http:www.epa.gov/dfe/pubs/projects/spUspray_polyurethane of when SPF fumes become evident within the conditioned foam.html) space. When when working working within outside the the conditioned building
envelope, isolate the area where foam will be applied, take precautions so that fumes will not transfer to inside
conditioned space, and exhaust fumes outside the home. Testing will include checking for penetrations in the
building envelope. Sensory inspection inside the home for fumes during foam application must also occur.
The client must be informed of plans to use two-part foam and the precautions that may be necessary. Workers using
foam products must receive training on the proper use of these various products and understand the specification for
each application type. Documentation of installers viewing an installation video or online training and verification of
reading and understanding product use information must be kept at the service provider agency. MSDS sheets are
mandatory use is required. for any foam product used and a thorough understanding of the temperature sensitivity of the product in

developed to document all information discussed and given to the clients along with application and onsite
interviews to verify preexisting at risk and health concerns.
REFRIGERATOR REPLACEMENT POLICY
Subgrantees will need to follow the tables for refrigerator replacement located within their climate specific zone.
METERING REQUIREMENTS
Meter at least 10% of units replaced — It is not required to meter every existing refrigerator that is replaced.
Initially, as the program gains experience, DOE will require metering on at least 10% of the units replaced. Units
that cannot be located in the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers, or other refrigerator databases, may
make up all or most of the 10% requirement.
Meter at least 2 hours — The minimum metering duration required to obtain results accurate enough to make a
reliable replacement decision has been debated for several years. DOE believes a two-hour minimum metering
duration is an appropriate compromise.
MATERIALS
New refrigerators shall:
Not exceed the size of the replaced unit.
Have a minimum 1-year warranty.
INSTALLATION
The electrical outlet shall:
Provide the voltage specified on the 1D plate of the new refrigerator.
Be properly grounded and/or protected with a properly functioning GFC1 device.
