LEED IEQ Cr5

Hi, I'm working on a project that consists of a large warehouse, drive-in bays and a narcotics storage. Currently I have separate ventilation and exhaust units for each space. Indirect heating and ventilation for the warehouse and narcotics storage and direct heating for the bays. I would like to persue this credir but I could not find in the LEED Guide whetther or not I must include MERV 13 filters for both direct and indirect units above. The warehouse and narcotics storage room are considered regularly occupied spaces. Is there anyone with the similar experience that can provide help on this? Really apreciste your help!!! Thank you!

As per, LEED Canada 2009 - "Filtration should be applied to process both return and outside air that is to be delivered as supply air." The heating units that are not supplying air (overhead, gas fired heaters, I'm assuming) are not required to have ventilation.

Thank you John-David! My overhead rooftop makeup air with gas fired units do supply outside air into the spaces. So I'm assuming MERV13 filters must be installed on these units then?
