FAQs about IEQc3.2 :

Should we install furniture and furnishings before IAQ testing or flushout?

The air temperature and/or relative humidity went out of the credit requirement specifications for a portion of the flush-out. What do we do? Can we extend the flush-out for the equivalent amount of time to make up for it?

In pursuit of flush out for the project, should "gross floor area" be used or "net occupiable area" for the calculations? The "FAQs for IEQc3.2" section on this page states "all occupied gross floor area." However, IEQp1, with reference to ASHRAE 62.1, uses "net occupiable area" for outdoor air ventilation calculations. Shouldn't the area used in IEQc3.2 match that of IEQp1 since it's the same area that is occupiable and serviced by outdoor air ventilation?

Simon, you should be looking at occupiable spaces for this credit.
