Macon Section March Meeting 2012

TOPIC: How to Apply the ASHRAE Standard 62.1 Multiple Spaces Equation

Use of the multiple spaces equation is now a code requirement in many areas and is a requirement of LEED for any new building that uses multiple space ventilation systems. Why is the equation there? How do you use the equations? What are the two options? Does the system approach make a difference in the quantity of outdoor air required? This presentation presents answers and discussion points for these important questions.
