New! ASHRAE Standard 241 Preview: Why It Matters

Course Length: 1 hour

This one-hour program explains why ASHRAE Standard 241 is a critically important addition to the group of standards used to set requirements for indoor air quality. It begins with a primer on airborne respiratory diseases, the infection risk management process, and the technologies – “engineering controls” – that can reduce risk. Next, the origins of Standard 241 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic are presented, followed by an overview of the key concepts and requirements of the standard. It concludes with a summary of status and plans for development and adoption.
