ASHRAE Publishes User's Manual for Standard 62.1.

ATLANTA – A manual to help users navigate the changes in ASHRAE’s 2007 ventilation standard is now available.

The Standard 62.1-2007 User’s Manual provides users with a better understanding of the design, installation and operation requirements in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2007, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality.

The standard, published last year, contains new requirements for separation of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) spaces from ETS-free spaces, clarification of humidity control design requirements, and the inclusion of new rates for high- rise residential occupancies.
