Commercial Quality Installation Committee
|
The mission of the committee is to support improving the effectiveness and expansion of IOU/municipal commercial quality installation (CQI) programs with a goal of developing a CQI concept that can be accepted and implemented by the HVAC industry. The CQI Committee:
- Advocates for CPUC/ED and CQI program agreement on measurable, quantifiable performance evaluation methods to be used by program participating contractors in system evaluation as well as by CPUC/ED program evaluation consultants.
- Formalizes what is meant by “quality installation” and develop a protocol, in collaboration with utility and CPUC/ED, that, if followed, will ensure that commercial installations done in California meet the agreed quality standards.
- Quantifies the benefits of CQI practices and the potential and actually achieved energy savings.
- Supports development of utility "claimed savings" work papers which will lead to greater program financial support, stability, increased participation and program expansion and far more rapid marketplace adoption of CQI as the norm.
