I am kind of confused about the actual requirement in COBA or any
related code for maintaining temperature in a single family house (I
dont have access to the actual code yet). Is the requirement that a
minimum temperature of around 68F be maintained throughout the house
or is it more flexible allowing for multiple zones and having a min of
one zone maintain the temp?
Thanks..
A.M.
