CI-2009 IEQc3.2: Construction IAQ Management Plan—Before Occupancy
Our project is pursuing Option 1 Path 2 - Flush During Early Occupancy. Do filters need to be replaced after the flush, or only after construction as part of IEQc3.1?

Is it possible for the flush-out start date to vary by ventilation zone?
Do non-regularly occupied areas such as bathrooms and corridors have to be flushed-out?
For LEED NC addition projects, do existing non-renovated areas need to be flushed-out or tested?
For IAQ testing, how many sample points are necessary in non-mechanically ventilated spaces?

Only after construction and only if the unit(s) performing the flush were energized during construction.
The filters may be replaced after the flush but this is not a condition for satisfying the credit requirements.
