What is essential about air quality?

Subject: Construction Air Quality

Doing it right the first time:

Controlling air quality during construction can dramatically increase project efficiency while delivering the highest quality finished product to building ownership.

The FACT is there are existing codes and guidelines for construction projects that provide recommendations for air quality during construction.

The requirements of modern construction and industrial processes and more stringent indoor air quality (IAQ) standards have resulted in an increased demand for effective control of both industrial and commercial indoor spaces. For instance, ASHRAE Standard 62-1989 states, “Relative humidity in habitable spaces preferably should be maintained between 30% and 60%… to minimize the growth of allergenic and pathogenic organisms.” (Section 5.11).
