MEMORANDUM
Date: May 1, 2020
Recipient: Indiana Department of Homeland Security
Division of Fire and Building Safety
Plan Review Branch
Project Number: 415247
Project Name: Hobby Horse Barn at Jackson’s Grant
Carmel, Indiana
Topic: Building Envelope Energy Code Compliance Check
Regarding the energy code compliance check (ComCheck) for the Hobby Horse Barn at Jackson's Grant project
(415247), the lighting/electrical will comply with the energy code but the envelope will not. Since the building is
not being heated nor air conditioned, the Owner felt that insulating the walls would be a waste of money as well as
detract from the realistic “barn” interior. The building will not be used at all in the winter time and simply rely on
open doors and windows in the summertime for ventilation. It is reasonable to believe that the building envelope
portion of the energy code compliance check assumes that the building will be heated and cooled as well as
occupied throughout the year. This is not the case with this project and, because there is no insulation within the
walls, the building envelope fails the compliance check. It is requested that the building envelope energy code
compliance check be waived.
