  • Prep - Overview
    • Intro / Background - Why
      • IAQ is a big part of IEQ (Air a subset of overall Environment)
      • IEQ through good design, construction, and operating and maintenance practices
      • Views and the integration of natural and man-made elements
      • Provide thermal comfort with a maximum degree of personal control over temperature and airflow
      • Supply adequate levels of ventilation and outside air for acceptable indoor air quality
      • Prevent airborne bacteria, mold, and other fungi, as well as radon, through building envelope design that properly manages moisture sources from outside and inside the building, and with heating, ventilating, air-conditioning (HVAC) system designs that are effective at controlling indoor humidity
      • Use materials that do not emit pollutants or are low-emitting
      • Assure acoustic privacy and comfort through the use of sound absorbing material and equipment isolation
      • Control disturbing odors through contaminant isolation and removal, and by careful selection of cleaning products
      • Create a high-performance luminous environment through the careful integration of natural and artificial light sources
      • Provide quality water
    • Review definition of IAQ - What
      • Indoor air quality (IAQ) is a term which refers to the air quality within and around buildings and structures, especially as it relates to the health and comfort of building occupants.
      • EPA Intro to IAQ
    • Labs Study Scope & Methodology - How / Where / When
      • How - CO2 data loggers and particle counters collecting data for 1 week at 5 minute intervals
      • Where - large conference room where ventilation air exits space and Helen's desk near front of bldg where ventilation air enters space
      • When - July 2015 for summer conditions; February 2016 for winter conditions
  • Hands-On
    • T/RH from CO2 Meters - instantaneous snapshots & 1-week data logging
    • CO2 Data Logging - instantaneous snapshots & 1-week data logging
    • Particle Counter - instantaneous snapshots & 1-week data logging
  • Brain Work
    • Immediate Results - Snapshot
    • Longer Term Logging - collect/analyze on Cave Day
    • Comparison of in space readings to DDC CO2 sensor in return duct
  • Observations - Conclusions - Suggestions
    • Observations
      • Saturday night mystery party in July 2015
    • Any Immediate Improvements / Theories
      • Good to open windows in conference room when more than 2 people
    • Plan for Winter Phase Project Measurements / Lessons Learned
      • Malfunction on one particle meter - try to check during week of study in February
