Alexandria, VA (August 23, 2024) – The Air Conditioning Contractors of America Educational Institute (ACCA-EI) Standards Task Team (STT) is announcing an American National Standards Institute (ANSI) public review period for proposed changes to ANSI/ACCA 12 QH® – 2019, Home Evaluation and Performance Improvement, as a revised industry standard.
The 30-day ANSI public review period will commence on August 23 with a comment deadline of September 22. The proposed revisions are to resolve comments received during the proposed reaffirmation of 12 QH which was announced for ANSI public review on January 5, 2024.
The 12 QH Standard establishes minimum requirements to evaluate a residence regarding energy efficiency, water conservation, occupant comfort, and indoor air quality. From this evaluation, improvement opportunities are presented to the customer by a design practitioner so they can select improvements that meet their needs.
A redline review draft of the proposed changes along with a form for submitting comments can be accessed here.
