NCHFA HOUSING REHABILITATION PROGRAMS -- Energy Standards <br /> 5.0 HVAC Systems. <br /> 5.1 If installation of a new heating and/or cooling system is indicated, the choice of <br /> a system must be based on efficiency of the system and its appropriateness to the <br /> dwelling unit. The keys to efficiency are ratings of systems (HSPF, AFUE, SEER, <br /> etc.), proper sizing (number of BTUs per hour, etc.) and the quality of installation. <br /> New central heating systems must be sized in accordance with ACCA Manual J <br /> specifications and must never exceed the Manual J calculated size. A copy of the <br /> sizing calculations shall be retained in client's case file. <br /> 5.2 All central heating units installed with Program funds must have Annual Fuel <br /> Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) ratings meeting the minimum efficiency levels set by <br /> the National Appliance Energy Conservation Act of 1987. These include: <br /> 1. Ducted Central Heating Equipment . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 789/o AFUE <br /> 2.
