There’s been a push to increase outdoor air since the pandemic, but the recent Canadian wildfires show the health benefits of doing so are more complicated.
The adage that increasing outdoor air ventilation will improve IAQ is not always the case. For example, how do you manage ventilation to support occupant health if outdoor air is polluted by an upwind wildfire or an accident that spilled airborne toxins?
The way we control the speed of fan motors or pump motors has tremendously changed in the past two decades with the introduction of variable-frequency drives (VFDs), aka variable-frequency controllers (VFCs).
Performance-based design (PBD), as opposed to prescriptive design, enables building owners and operators to customize the building design based on long-term goals.
