There are three types of ventilation systems:
• Mechanical ventilation (active)
• Natural ventilation (passive)
• Mixed mode ventilation (active and passive)
The goals of IEQ can be achieved by implementing the following strategies (6):
• Improved ventilation
• Managing contaminants
• Low VOC material selection
• Occupant controllability of systems
• Increased daylight and views
• Acoustics (Schools)
Environmental Tobacco Smoke can be prevented by (2):
• No smoking in the building or within 25 feet of entrances, operable windows and air intakes
• Smoking permitted inside must be confined to spaces built per ASTM E779-03
CO2 contamination can be prevented by installing:
• Carbon dioxide monitors integrated into the ventilation systems that supply proper amounts of ventilation to occupants based on occupant loads
BMP during construction and related to IEQ are (5):
• Cover return and supply air ducts to prevent contaminants from recirculating through the HVAC systems
• Practice good housekeeping; clean spills immediately
• Prevent mold by protecting all materials from moisture
• Prevent dust and particulate infiltration and buildup
• Install high efficiency filters with high MERV ratings to reduce smaller particulates during construction and replace prior to occupancy
BMP after construction and prior to occupancy related to IEQ are (2):
BMP after construction and prior to occupancy related to IEQ are (2):
BMP after construction and prior to occupancy related to IEQ are (2):
• Sizing ventilation systems to provide adequate outside air to building occupants follow industry standards such as ASHRAE Standard 62, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality - the more outside air introduced into the space, the more diluted contaminants become.
• ASHRAE 90.1-2007 deals about:
Energy efficiency (not required in IEQ category)
• ASHRAE 52.2-1999 deals about:
Ventilation air filters - MERV
• ASHRAE 55-2004 deals about:
Thermal comfort - Air and radiant temperatures, air speed, humidity
• ASHRAE 62.1-2007 deals about:
Ventilation rates
