C INTRODUCTION The importance and confusion regarding the need for venrilation standards is evidenced by the existence of such standards in numerous building codes since the early 1900's and, at' the same time, the diverse and often conflicting~specifications. In 1965, ASHRAE was invited to participate in the revision and updating of ASA Standard A53.1, Light and Ventilation, dated' May 23, 1946. Responsibility for the Mechanical Ventilation Section of this Standard was assigned to an ASHIRAE Project Committee appointed in 1966. With the reorganization of ASA (now ANSI)', and a change in its procedures, the A53 Committee became inactive; at the instructions of the ASHRAE Standards Committee, the Project Committee was advise& to continue its efforts and develop an ASHRAE Standard'. To meet its responsibility, the Project Committee undertook an extensive program to obtain input from all segments of industry, the public, and ASHRAE members. A comprehensive review and comparison of ventilation codes was undertaken to aid' the Committee in its formulation and standardization of definitions and recommendations. An article in the ASHRAE JOURNAL and a press release to the trade press solicited opinions, comments and suggestions. An, open forum was held at the ASHRAE Semi- annual Meeting in Chicago, January 1969. Interest was high, and considerable information was obtained for guidance of the Project Committee. Following Project Committee acceptance of the eighth draft, the proposed Standard was submitted to an additional review by ASH RAE members and representatives from industry and government prior to approval by the Standards Committee and'ASHIRAE's Board of Directors. The Standard recommends ventilation rates based upon the best available scientific and technical knowledge. It also incorporates, for the first time, a quantitative definition of "acceptable outdoor air" and specifies conditions under which the amount of outdoor air may be reduced, thereby taking advantage of advancements in air cleaning technolbgy. The Committee wishes to thank all those who submitted comments and suggestions and wishes it to be known that each reviewer's comment received'serious consideration and in many cases was incorporated into this final document. Further comments are welcome and should be sent to the ASHRAE Director of Standards, 2 ASHRAE STANDARD 62-73 M

1 C STANDARDS FOR NATURAL AND MECHANICAL VENTILATION SECTION 1.0 PURPOSE AND SCOPE. This standard* defines ventilationi requirements for spaces intended for human occupancy and specifies minimum and recommended ventilation air quantities for the preservation of the occupants' health, safety, and well-being. Good ventilation practice exists when clean ventila- tion air is provided in sufficient quantities to maintaini the required oxygen, carboni dioxide, and other air quality levels in the space under consideration. The standard does not specify the air quantities required for the control of temperature and humidity or the exhaust quantities required for source cont'fol' of domestic or industrial wastes. The specifications aree based on the current state of knowledge and acceptable practice related to air filtration, odor control and en- vironmental physiolQgy. •Replaces the ventilation sectiom of ASA Standard A53.1 dated May 23, 1946. SECTION 2.0 DEFINITIONS (SEE FIG. 1) 2.1 AIR CLEANER: a device capable of removing airborne impurities such as dusts, gases, vapors, fumes and smokes.

C 2.11 MECHANICAL EXHAUST SYSTEM: a system for removing air from a room or space by mechanical means. 2.12 MECHANICAL SUPPLY SYSTEM: a system for forcing air into a room or space by mechanical!means. 2.13 NATURAL VENTILATION!: the movement of air into and out of a space through intentionally provided openings, such as windows and doors, or through non- powered ventilators. 2.14 VENTILATION: the process of supplying ventila- tion air to any space by natural or mechanical means. (Provision must be made for simultaneous removal of air from the space.) SECTION 3.0. ACCEPTABLE VENTILATION AIR QUALITY (SEE BIBLIOGRAPHY) 3.1 TABLE I list's the maximum allowable pollutant concentrations in ventilation air commensurate with the ventilation requirements set forth in Section 6.0 of this Standardl In addition ventilation air shall conform to the limiting conditions given in Section 3.3. 3.2 OUTDOOR AIR shall be considered of that quality which meets or exceeds the criteria of Table I if one of the following conditions is met: C 3.2.1 Monitoring Data of governmental pollut'iom control agencies such as the National Air Pollution Control Administration show that the air quality of the community ini which the ventilation system is located meets the requirements of Table I'; 3.2.2 The Community in which the ventilation sys- tem is located is similar in population, geographic and meteorological setting and industrial pattern to a com- munity having acceptable air quality as determined in paragraph 3'.2.1;, 3.2.3 The Community in, which the ventilation sys- tem is located has a population of less than 20;000 people, and no nearby substantial contamination source; 3.2.4 Air Monitoring, for three consecutive months, as required for inclusion in the NAPCA-SORAD Sys- tem, shows that the air quality meets the requirements of Table I. 3.3 AIR shall be considered unacceptable for ventilal tion use in accordance with this standard if it contains any, contaminant in, a concentration greater than one- tenth the Threshold Limit Value (TLV) currently ac- cepted by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. Where there is reasonable ex- pectation that the air is unacceptable, as indicated above, sampling and analysis shall be carried out by qualified personnel in accordance with procedures and equipment acceptable to the American Conference of Table I Maximum Allowable Contaminant Concentrations for Ventilation Air 4 Annual Average Short-Term,Leve1 (Arithmetic3Mean) "(Not to be exceeded Contaminant µg/m More than once a Year)iµg/m 3 Averaging Period (hr) Particulates 60* 150* 24 Sulfur Oxides 80 400 24 CarboniMonoxide 20;000 30,000 8 Phot'ochemicalOxidant 100, 500 1 Hydrocarbons (not including methane) 1,800 4,000' 3 Nitrogen Oxides 200: 500 24 Odor Essentially Unobjectionable* * •Federal'criteria for US. by 1975.

SECTION 4.0. VENTILATING SYSTEMS- GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 4.1 VENTILATING SYSTEMS shall be provided with adequate openings for supply, return and exhaust air to obtain the required circulation. 4.2 OUTDOOR AIR INLETS shall be located to mini- mize or eliminate possible contamination. 4.3 EXHAUST DISCHARGES shall be located so that the air exhausted to the outside does not create a nuisance or contaminate outdoor air, near outdoor air inlets. 4.4 VENTILATING' SYSTEMS shall be designed and! installed so that the air coming in contact with occu- pants is at a temperature, velocity and quality not t'oo constitute a health hazard or discomfort. 4.5 VENTILATING DUCTS shall be constructed en- tirely of incombustible, nonporous materials. Their construction shalli comply with the standards of air conditioning and ventilating systems of the National Fire Protective Association (Pamphlets NFPA No. 90A and' NFPA No. 90B). 4.6 OCCUPIED SPACES shall be provided with means of supplying sufficient ventilation, air for fhemaximum number of persons for which such spaces are designed. 4.7 TIflS STANDARD assumes that contaminants from concentrated sources which can be a potential hazard or nuisance (heat, smoke, fumes, etc.) are col- lected as close as possible to the source by exhaust systems separate from the space ventilating system. \ 4.8 WHEN! SPECIAL EXHAUSTS are used (as in~ the kitchen), consideration~ must! be given to provide ade- quate supply air to the space to replace the exhaust air. SECTION 5.0. RECIRCULATION The requirements for ventilation quantities given in Section 6.0 are for 100% outdoor air when~ the outdoor air meets the specifications for air quality given in Section 3.0. Except' for areas where recirculation is prohibited by other codes or standards having prece- denee,, the outdoor air requirements may be reduced to 33% of the specified required ventilation air quantity if adequate temperature control is provided, in addition to filtering equipment, so that the maximum allow- able concentration of particulates entering the space is less than that specified in Table I. If, in addition, high efficient adsorption or other odor and gas removal equipment is employed, so that' the air entering the space has been purified to meet the requirements of Sections 3.1 and 3.3, the outdoor air requirement may be reduced to 15% of the specified required ventilatiom air quantity. In no case shall the outdoor air quantity be less than 5 cfm per person. SECTION 6.0. VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS The required air quantities are for outdoor air meet- ing the requirements of Section 3.0 or for a combina- tion of acceptable outdoor air and recirculated air in accordance with Section 5.0. Minimum and recom- mend'ed' values are given to provide different qual- ity levels in recognition of the need to provide choices of environmental performance for different classes of projects. In either case the designer is en- couraged to use his experience and judgment in the application~ of this Standard as long as the minimum requirements are satisfied. In many cases the required ventilation air quantities for spaces with positive exhaust systems, such as toilets, baths, lobbies, corridors, and kitchens, may be supplied from~ adjacent' spaces. The sum of the ventila- tion requirements for the space and the adjacent space shall be provided. O 40 W Clt ASHRAE STANDARD 62-73 5
