NC-2009 IEQc1:Outdoor Air Delivery Monitoring

OA Air Flow Monitoring in Laundry

The project I am working on has large laundry area with outside air provided for makeup air for the dryer exhaust. The system is designed to modulate based on the amount of exhaust caused by the dryers. When the dryers aren't running the DOAS will not run. Would OA air monitoring be required for the Makeup air units serving the laundry?

Joe - good question. If your make up to the laundry was connected directly to the machines then I would call that "process" make up. In that case you wouldn't have to monitor it. But if you are supplying to the laundry area where people are folding clothes/putting in laundry and that is your only form of ventilation then you need to monitor it. If you have natural ventilation or another system that provides ventilation - then perhaps you could call it "process" again.
