§ Method & disclaimer

This tool produces a first-pass estimate for a single-occupancy Group B (Business) building. It does not account for mixed-use floor area weighting, beneficial-electrification credits, greenhouse-gas offsets, DER carve-outs, or the alternate-compliance path.

Results are indicative only and are not a certification of compliance under NYC Administrative Code §28-320. Building-specific work requires a filed report by a licensed professional.
