We will add your response to the permit file to remove the economizer <br /> requirement. <br /> This is the type of response I was looking for on the first corrections letter. <br /> Please understand that we are in a staff transition at this point,and will redline an incomplete response to the first corrections letter <br /> with the code requirement to get the permit out the door. <br /> Regards, <br /> Meg <br /> Meg Haley, RA <br /> Plan Review Architect <br /> Permit Services,City of Everett <br /> 3200 Cedar St. <br /> Everett,WA 98201 <br /> Direct: 425-257-8813 <br /> Main: 425-257-8810(Option 8) Monday-Friday 7:30am-12pm&1pm-4pm,except holidays everettwa.gov/permits <br /> everettwa.gov/codes everettwa.gov/maptools <br /> Original Message <br /> From:Mark Payne [mailto:mark@essmwa.com] <br /> Sent:Thursday,January 05,2017 9:41 AM <br /> To:Meg Haley <br /> Cc: Ken Salo;Marks, Robert(RLMarks@SNOPUD.com) <br /> Subject: M1602-060 <br /> Meg, <br /> In this application we are treating 2 rooms-one,the lobby,is ventilated by the entrance door.The other space is the pet recovery- <br /> also ventilated by a constant use exit door.The condition and age of the building allows plenty of uncontrolled ventilation. Both <br /> spaces are heated by base-board heating and cooled by either portable or"window shakers"-some of the least efficient systems <br /> available. <br /> I am requesting an exemption for the requirement of the economizer on ductless systems for the following reasons: <br /> While there is energy savings found with economizers the lack of maintenance and breakdown renders a majority of the <br /> economizers ineffective and actually reduces the efficiency of the overall system. <br /> The manufacture does not make an economizer(nor do other manufactures of ductless mini-splits)to use with these systems. <br /> Ductless systems are used to treat the air inside the room. <br /> C101.3 Intent,while discussing new buildings,allows for flexibility to permit the use innovative approaches that achieve this <br /> objective i.e energy efficiency. <br /> , ter <br />
