ASHRAE 62.1 Para. 5.9 only applies to coils that serve occupied spaces. In order to comply with IEQp1, all wetted (cooling) coils serving occupied spaces must be filtered with a minimum of MERV-6. This is only for occupied spaces. If not occupied then there is no requirement but filters are highly advised.

ok! I asked this because I have worked on projects that did not make any assessment regarding the equipment filters hi-wall. And they had no filter MERV 6. But I'll do it, thanks!
