FAQs about IEQp1 :

What if after our Preliminary Review we have to re-work the ventilation rate procedure calculations and find that we need to make corrections to the system in order to meet the prerequisite? Can we redo the outside air testing after making corrections? Wo

What if our systems do not meet the required outside air when systems are tested at worst-case conditions?

Our building has a single fan that supplies outside air to multiple AHU’s. Do we need to perform outside air testing at the supply fan or at all AHUs?

We have a VAV system where single AHUs serve multiple zones. Do we need to take outside air measurements at each VAV box?

Fresh air requirements for a supermarket

I was wondering if anyone has experience dealing with supermarket fresh air calculations. In particular, is a supermarket's storage area considered an occupiable space? The definition of occupiable space says that storage rooms can be excluded, but has the difference between a storage space and a warehouse space been established at some point in the case of a supermarket? Thanks

A warehouse is occupiable space. A closet is not. "Occupiable Space: an enclosed space intended for human activities, excluding those spaces intended primarily for other purposes, such as storage rooms and equipment rooms, that are only occupied occasionally, and for short periods of time." from ASHRAE 62.1-2007 If someone is working in there it's occupiable.
