To determine the volume of an occupied space, the designer must also determine which ones are connected, not connected, or ventilated
(refer to Standard 34-2007).
If the calculated RCL is above the allowable limit, there are two primary methods used to lower the RCL:
1. Increase the volume of the occupied space.
2. Decrease the size of the refrigerant charge.
Per Standard 34-2007, acceptable methods used to increase the volume of an occupied space include:
Install transfer ducts between rooms.
Undercut and overcut doors (partitions ≤0.15% of cubic volume of space within a zone).
Add an opening without a door (partitions ≤0.15% of cubic volume of space within a zone).
Include ventilation grilles in doors; include ventilation inlets / outlets (partitions ≤0.15% of cubic volume of space within a zone).
Include the area above the ceiling as part of the return or supply air path (partitions ≤0.15% of cubic volume of space within a zone).
Install a mechanical ventilator linked to a gas leak detector.
Change the indoor unit type (wall mounted to ceiling cassette) / position.
