Join the New Commercial Program Task Groups

Posted By Adriana Vargas, National Fenestration Rating Council, Thursday, December 3, 2020

We are looking forward to continuing the work of the Commercial Program Work Group with the development of the NFRC 715 PCP Review and the Commercial Technical Task Groups. These groups are open to everyone. To join the groups, click on the name of the group below. To join the groups you must be logged into the community to join, so if you need to create a log it, click here.

 

The details of the group are below:

 

Scope: The task group is responsible for continuing with the development of the WG’s direction for a two-pathway (product directory path and project upload path) certification program and the maintaining of the NFRC 715 Product Certification Program document upon implementation.

Group Chair: Tom Culp

Staff Liaison- Kevin Louder

 

Scope: The task group is responsible for continuing with the development of the WG’s direction for both the project upload path to certification and for the product directory path which utilizes a modified LEAFF methodology for generating U-Factor, SHGC, VT, and CI rating.

Group Chair: Greg McKenna

Staff Liaison: Kevin Louder

 

We will be sending out a doodle poll on December 14th to schedule the first meeting in the new year.  To make sure that you can make the first meeting, please join the group by Friday, December 11, 2020.

 

This is open to everyone, but highly recommend for those who would like to be involved in the New Commercial Program.

 

Save the Date: In the new year, we will be hosting a Technical Commercial webinar that will review the two-pathways to certification for commercial fenestration with specific focus on the new Commercial Trendline Approach (CTA) Method.  This webinar is further being hosted to provide to a brief general overview of the status of the new commercial program, how the ratings are generated and what users should expect from the new program.  

 

Click here to register.  This is free to NFRC members and $15 for nonmembers. 

 

If you have any questions about the group, please email Kevin Louder.
