Score one 5200-Wilshire-block building against the LBC Energy Petal

The installs above need a target list: which building on the block leaks most, which roof hosts solar best, which panel is ready. One walk-through audit against the Energy Petal produces that ranked list — and every finding routes into a DOING job, not a filing cabinet. Standard: Living Building Challenge 4.0 — Energy Petal (net-positive energy). Solar, heat pumps, storage, and EV readiness ARE Energy-petal work. SDG 7. Proof: photo-documented checklist + ranked retrofit list naming the follow-on jobs + GPS Method (Living Building Challenge 4.0 — Energy Petal (net-positive energy). Solar, heat pumps, storage, and EV readiness ARE Energy-petal work. SDG 7.): 1. Walk the building with the owner/manager and record envelope condition, heating/cooling equipment ages, roof orientation/shading and panel labels (photograph labels only — do not open equipment). 2. Score each system against the LBC Energy Petal checklist (envelope, electrification, generation, storage). 3. Rank the shortfalls into a sequenced retrofit list, naming the matching job for each (seal → insulate → heat pump → solar → battery). 4. Deliver the one-page scorecard and photograph it handed over. Done when: photo-documented checklist + ranked retrofit list naming the follow-on jobs + GPS

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 60–150 minutes. Method of record: Living Building Challenge 4.0 Energy Petal — envelope and load reduction verified by measurement before and after, not by installed-product count

Bring

caulk gun + backer rod
weatherstripping sized to the gap
low-expansion foam
incense stick or smoke pencil
infrared thermometer if available
ladder
camera + phone with GPS

Steps

1. Photograph each target opening BEFORE, with GPS and timestamp.
2. Find the leaks: run a smoke pencil around each frame on a windy day or with the exhaust fan running; mark every deflection.
3. Measure each gap; choose weatherstripping that compresses to the gap, not larger.
4. Clean the surface — sealant on dust fails within a season.
5. Seal fixed gaps with backer rod plus caulk; use low-expansion foam only where framing allows.
6. Fit weatherstripping to operable edges; the door or window must still close and latch without force.
7. Re-test every sealed opening with the smoke pencil; the deflection must be gone.
8. Photograph AFTER from the same positions.

If it does not match the plan

Any sign of mould, water staining, or rot at the opening -> stop and flag; sealing traps moisture and makes it worse.
Building is pre-1978 and paint is disturbed -> stop; lead-safe practices required (RRP rule).
A combustion appliance is present and unvented -> do not tighten further without a CO check; tightening can backdraft.
Window or door will not latch after weatherstripping -> the strip is oversized; refit rather than forcing.
Gap exceeds 1cm -> backer rod first; caulk alone will fail.

What counts as done

Before and after photos of every opening from the same position, timestamped, GPS inside the radius
Smoke-pencil re-test documented as showing no deflection at each sealed opening
Every operable opening still closes and latches without force
No sealing performed where moisture damage was present — flagged instead
Materials and gap sizes recorded

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
