April Morning Workshop + Chapter Meeting

Location: U of I Water Center Building, Room 156 322 E. Front Street Boise, ID 83702

Share This month we have a morning workshop starting at 10:30am plus chapter meeting over lunch which starts at 12:00. The workshop will have coffee/pastries and feel free to register for both or just one of the sessions. Workshop Title: Moving Closer to Net Zero Buildings with the IAQ Procedure of ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2022 Speaker: Chris Muller Bio: Recognized as a world-wide authority on the topics of indoor/environmental air quality, the application and use of gas-phase air filtration, filtration and enhanced air cleaning, corrosion control and monitoring, and electronic equipment reliability. Written and spoken extensively on these and related topics with more than 175 articles and peer-reviewed papers, more than 100 seminars, and 8 handbooks. Contributed to chapters in two handbooks on the application and use of gas-phase air filtration, wrote the chapter on contamination control in the ASHRAE Datacom Series Handbook – Particulate and Gaseous Contamination in Datacom Environments, wrote a chapter on gas-phase air filtration in the NAFA Air Filtration Handbook, a chapter on airborne molecular contamination in the Semiconductor Manufacturing Handbook, 2nd Ed. published by McGraw-Hill, and on Contamination Control in the upcoming Data Center Handbook edited by Hwaiyu Geng. Workshop Description: Being able to achieve IAQ goals while reducing energy consumption is one of the more valuable aspects of using ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2016: "Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality". By meeting the requirements of the IAQ Procedure, one is allowed to take credit for the application of validated air cleaning technologies and reduce the amount of ventilation air that has to be heated and/or cooled. Revisions to Standard 62.1 have caused some confusion in its use and the application of energy conservation measures. This presentation will discuss the status of the Indoor Air Quality Procedure, review the applicable provisions of the Standard, discuss indoor air quality models in use, and provide examples where the IAQ Procedure has been successfully employed as part of an energy conservation program. There will also be a discussion of current activities to make it easier to validate the IAQ Procedure and make it more useful to the engineering community when designing "net zero" energy buildings. Chapter Meeting Presentation Title: Applying the IAQ Procedure of ASHRAE 62.1 – 2022 at K-12 Education Facilities Speaker: Chris Muller Chapter Meeting Presentation Description: Mechanical Engineers use ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2016 to determine minimum building ventilation requirements and multiple mechanical codes refer to it as the basis for ventilation calculations. Engineers use the Indoor Air Quality Procedure (IAQP) less frequently, partly because of its perceived difficulty. This presentation provides information about the requirements of the IAQP, incentives to apply the IAQP, and experiences of one school district in using the IAQP.
