Title: Description of the testing process for the Automated Residential Energy Standard (ARES) in support of proposed interim energy conservation voluntary performance standards for new non-federal residential buildings: Volume 5

Abstract

In this report, the scope of the tests, the method of analysis, the results, and the conclusions are discussed. The first test indicated that the requirements generated by the Standard procedures and formulae appear to yield reasonable results, although some of the cost data provided as defaults in the Standard should be reevaluated. The second test provided experience that was useful in modifying the points compliance format, but did not uncover any procedural issues that would lead to unreasonable results. These conclusions are based on analysis using the Automated Residential Energy Standard (ARES) computer program, developed to simplify the process of standards generation.
