FAQs about IEQc3.2 :

Is it possible for the flush-out start date to vary by ventilation zone?

Should a parking garage be included in a flush-out, if it is in a basement and not fully open to the outdoors?

Do the outdoor air minimum quantities have to be met for each individual space, or for the building square footage as a whole?

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?

Can testing be done over various days?

I'm confused about the 11/1/2011 LEED addendum that removed the "1/25,000 SF or each contiguous area whichever is larger" language from the credit requirement. How do we determine the number of sampling locations for testing?

I am working on a small ~6,500 sq. ft. LEED-CI office space. The space is served outdoor air from a single base building system, and then air is recirculated within the space by a ventilation system with a series of VAVs. Does this space need one (1) or two (2) test locations?

Melissa, there are not hard and fast rules about the number of sampling locations. I would recommend a careful review of the credit language and FAQs above.
