Use this checklist prior to construction for mechanical systems and credit compliance:
- Using the mechanical equipment schedule, confirm that outside air is being supplied to mechanically ventilated spaces.
- Do you have calculations showing the outside air required by ASHRAE 62.1-2004 for mechanically ventilated spaces separate from naturally ventilated spaces?
- Do outside air rates meet or exceed the calculated ASHRAE minimums?
- Are all regularly occupied spaces listed in the ASHRAE calculations?
- What is the desired MERV filtration? If using a high level of ventilation to meet EQc5, has the mechanical system been sized accordingly?
