Indoor Air Quality
Best Practices
I
n the Northern Hemisphere, the days are getting
shorter, and the nights are getting cooler as we have
entered November and reached the end of yearly
Daylight Saving Time. With that, the change in weather
affects the air we breathe indoors.
Our cover article for November is written by David
Schurk, Life Member ASHRAE. He mentions in our latest Hot Air podcast
with Technical Editor Rebecca Matyasovski that you cannot have a
disconnect between indoor environmental quality or indoor air quality
best practices and sustainability. His article, titled " Avoiding Wet &
Moldy AHUs in Critical-Care Facilities, " begins on page 28 and discusses
both in combination.
" It's front and center in everyone's mind right now, " Schurk said on
Drew Champlin
Hot Air. " Anyone who has experienced the wet inside of an HVAC airhandling
unit that serves critical care environments knows that this
situation can create a breeding ground for mold and microbial growth.
It's certainly an unacceptable condition particularly when serving
hospital patient care areas or other such sensitive settings. "
Speaking of podcasts, I was able to host my fi rst ASHRAE Journal podcast
recently with Kelley Cramm, P.E., Life Member ASHRAE, talking variable
refrigerant fl ow (VRF) basics and installation tips. Give it a listen on any
podcast platform.
This issue also features the second " Hidden Figures in HVAC " article by
Janice K. Means, Fellow/Life Member ASHRAE. This one is about David
Nelson Crosthwait Jr. Read about his contributions to the industry, which
include 39 U.S. patents and 80 international patents, beginning on page
22. Her fi rst such article ran in April's ASHRAE Journal.
On page 48, Kishor Khankari, Ph.D., Fellow ASHRAE, and William
P. Bahnfl eth, Ph.D., P.E., Presidential Member/Fellow ASHRAE, wrote
on a study that systematically evaluated the impact of the air supply
and return layout on the effectiveness of the upper-room ultraviolet
germicidal irradiation system for an overhead mixing system.
