The Phius Certification project contract date determines the required program version. Generally, projects can voluntary choose to comply with a newer version than required by contract date.

Resources for modeling the performance of the PentaCare V12 MINOTAIR system for Phius projects.

This estimator may be used to determine a lower temperature reduction factor than the default of 0.95 and the associated additional energy use for attached zones outside of the thermal and airtight envelope that are conditioned to a lower setpoint temperature than the certified portion of the building.

The Phius Certification Guidebook is the one-stop-shop for all things related to the Phius project certification program.

This calculator is used to determine project-specific performance criteria for Phius 2024 Certification.

This estimator should be used to determine the energy use of water pressure booster pumps for residential buildings over four stories or where a water booster pressure pump is planned in the design to provide adequate water pressure for the upper floors.

Calculates a peak/design latent load, dehumidification load, for the purpose of sizing dehumidification equipment. The calculation is in accordance with the ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals.

Phius allows airtightness testing at either 50Pa or 75Pa. The current software used for certification only accepts inputs at 50Pa. This resource allows projects to convert between 50Pa and 75Pa airtightness results.

This calculator should be used to determine the 'Mechanical Room' temperature when a mechanical ventilation device is located outside of the thermal envelope. (eg. the roof)
