k. As shown on the GIS map for Teton County. To view go to www.tetoncountywy.gov click on the following; Maps– GIS map server- Ownership - Layers Tool - Planning and Building Background Layers – Ground Snow Load - blue is 175 and tan is 120 and green is 75 Search a specific address or pidn for the correct snow load for that property.

INSULATION AND FENESTRATION REQUIREMENTS

a. R-values are minimums. U-factors and SHGC are maximums. . When insulation is installed in a cavity which is less than the label or design thickness of the insulation, the installed R-value of the insulation shall not be less than the R-value specified in the table

b. The fenestration U-factor column excludes skylights. The SHGC column applies to all glazed fenestrations. Exception: Skylights may be excluded from glazed fenestrations SHGC requirements in Climate Zones 1 through 3 where the SHGC for such skylights does not exceed 0.30

c. 15/19 means R-15 continuous insulation on the interior or exterior of the home or R-19 cavity insulation at the interior of the basement wall. 15/19 shall be permitted to be met with R-13 cavity insulation on the interior of the basement wall plus R-5 continuous insulation on the interior or exterior of the home. 10/13 means R-10 continuous insulation on the interior or exterior of the home or R-13 cavity insulation of the interior of the basement wall

d. R-5 shall be added to the required slab edge R-values for heated slabs. Insulation depth shall be the depth of the footing or 2 feet, whichever is less in Zone 1 through 3 for heated slabs.

e. There are no SHGC requirements in the Marine Zone

f. Basement wall insulation is not required in warm-humid locations. (Teton county is not in this zone)

g. Or insulation sufficient to fill the framing cavity.

h. The first value is cavity insulation, the second value is continuous insulation, so “13+5” means R13 cavity insulation plus R5 continuous insulation

i. The second R-value applies when more than half the insulation is on the interior of the mass wall.
