MINOR
This bill amends the New York State Multiple Dwelling Law to update technical definitions and window area calculation rules. It replaces the term 'U-factor' with 'coefficient of heat transmittance' to align with current building codes and clarifies that HVAC equipment now refers to 'heating, ventilation and air conditioning' equipment. These changes ensure the law accurately reflects modern energy efficiency standards without altering the specific percentage allowances for reducing window sizes.

The term 'U-factor' was replaced with 'coefficient of heat transmittance' to match current technical standards.
REQUIREMENT
References to the 'New York city energy conservation code' were removed in favor of the updated technical term 'coefficient of heat transmittance'.
