ATLANTA – A new user’s manual provides users with a better understanding of the design, installation and operation requirements in ASHRAE’s ventilation standard.
The Standard 62.1 User’s Manual explains the requirements of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2004, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality, and contains numerous examples of their application in an easy-to-follow question and answer format.
“Because the standard is written in code-intended language, such material could not be included in the standard itself, so the manual helps users better understand the intent and apply it to their work,” Dennis Stanke, chair of the Standard 62.1 committee, said. “It helps users understand what Standard 62.1 requires and how those requirements can be met. It’s a document that designers have needed for many years and will find useful for many years to come.”
The manual includes a CD containing a spreadsheet to assist in the standard’s new ventilation rate procedure calculations.
The manual was developed through ASHRAE research and partially funded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute and the U.S. Green Building Council.
The cost of the Standard 62.1 User’s Manual is $55 ($44, ASHRAE members).
To order, contact ASHRAE Customer Service at 1-800-527-4723 (United States and Canada) or 404-636-8400 (worldwide), fax 404-321-5478, by mail at 1791 Tullie Circle NE, Atlanta, GA 30329, or visit the ASHRAE.org Bookstore.
ASHRAE, founded in 1894, is an international organization of 55,000 persons. Its sole objective is to advance through research, standards writing, publishing and continuing education the arts and sciences of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration to serve the evolving needs of the public.
