21 USEHC 2018 ( ) Item # 003 Julius A Ballanco, PE Representing: JB Engineering and Code Consulting, P.C. Recommendation: Revise text Section Number: Materials Standards and Alternates Standards. Standards listed or referred to in this chapter or other chapters cover materials that will conform to the requirements of this code, where used in accordance with the limitations imposed in this or other chapters thereof and their listing. Where a standard covers materials of various grades, weights, quality, or configurations, the portion of the listed standard that is applicable shall be used. Design and materials for special conditions or materials not provided for herein shall be permitted to be used by special permission of the Authority Having Jurisdiction after the Authority Having Jurisdiction has been satisfied as to their adequacy. A list of accepted material solar energy and hydronics standards that appear in specific sections of this code are referenced in Table Standards referenced in Table shall be applied as indicated in the applicable referenced section. A list of additional standards, publications, practices and guides that are not referenced in specific sections of this code appear in Table The documents indicated in Table shall be permitted in accordance with Section This change correlates the requirements of this section with the changes to Table A change to Table will remove the standards not referenced in the code and place those standards, which were determined to be within the scope of the code into a new Table Table will contain the standards that can be used by the AHJ to approve a product, installation, or design. The Task Group considered deleting the wording, "after the AHJ has deemed the applicable standard appropriate," after "in accordance with Section " The Technical Committee can consider a modification to delete this language if they find it inappropriate to include. 18

22 USEHC 2018 (214.0) Item # 004 Representing: Recommendation: John Taecker UL LLC Revise text Section Number: Labeled. Equipment or materials bearing a label of a listing agency (accredited conformity assessment body). The manner in which the equipment or materials are labeled shall be in accordance with the listing agency system. See Listed (Third-Party Certified). The method by which products are labeled is defined by the listing agency and may differ from the classic interpretation of a tag that is affixed directly to the product. Listing agencies define the manner in which a product should be marked taking into account such challenges such as the product size, product configuration, product material and new innovative methods of labeling. This change will give clear guidance to the AHJ that the labeling method should be in accordance with the labeling system as established by the listing agency. 19

23 USEHC 2018 (214.0, 315.2, 403.2, 502.6) Item # 005 Representing: Recommendation: John Taecker UL LLC Revise text Section Number: 214.0, 315.2, 403.2, Listing Agency. An agency accredited by an independent and authoritative conformity assessment body to operate a material and product listing and labeling (certification) system and that is accepted by the Authority Having Jurisdiction, which is in the business of listing or and labeling. The system includes initial and ongoing product testing, a periodic inspection on current production of listed (certified) products, and that makes available a published report of such listing in which specific information is included that the material or product is in accordance with applicable standards and found safe for use in a specific manner Electrical Controls. Required electrical, mechanical, safety, and operating controls shall be listed or and labeled by a listing agency. Electrical controls shall be of such design and construction as to be suitable for installation in the environment in which they are located Capacity of Heat Source Dual Purpose Water Heater. Water heaters utilized for combined space-and water-heating applications shall be listed or and labeled in accordance with the standards referenced in Table 403.2, and shall be installed in accordance with the manufacturer s installation instructions. The total heating capacity of a dual purpose water heater shall be based on the sum of the potable hot water requirements and the space heating design requirements corrected for hot water first hour draw recovery Solar Collectors Listing. Collectors that are manufactured as a complete component shall be listed or and labeled by an approved listing agency in accordance with SRCC 100, UL 1279, or equivalent standard. Only products which are listed and labeled as to that particular equipment meeting the terms of the listing labeling requirements can be verified to comply with the requirements of their listings. The model number as identified by a third party certification agency does not necessarily guarantee that the unit that is installed in the field has undergone the factory inspection, testing as applicable and traceability of components at the factory that a truly listed unit does. If is often determined at the factory that a shipment of units may have used unauthorized components, failed factory testing or the manufacturer may have business reasons to not want the unit inspected. As such, the model will not be able to bear the appropriate marking/labeling that would identify it as listed and will be shipped from the factory without that. Only when it is listed AND labeled can the actual unit be verified as being compliant with applicable requirements. 20

24 USEHC 2018 (302.1) Item # 006 John Taecker Representing: UL LLC Recommendation: Revise text Section Number: Materials Standards and Alternates Minimum Standards. Pipe, pipe fittings, appliances, appurtenances, equipment, material, and devices used shall be listed or and labeled (third party certified) by a listing agency (accredited conformity assessment body) and shall comply with the approved applicable recognized standards referenced in this code, and shall be free from defects. Unless otherwise provided for in this code, materials, appurtenances, or devices used or entering into the construction of a system, or parts thereof, shall be submitted to the Authority Having Jurisdiction for approval. Only products which are listed and labeled as to that particular equipment meeting the terms of the listing labeling requirements can be verified to comply with the requirements of their listings. The model number as identified by a third party certification agency does not necessarily guarantee that the unit that is installed in the field has undergone the factory inspection, testing as applicable and traceability of components at the factory that a truly listed unit does.
