Preparing HVAC Systems Before Reoccupying A Building BY JOHN MCCARTHY, SC.D., C.I.H., MEMBER ASHRAE; KEVIN COGHLAN, C.I.H. As states across the U.S. roll out new phases of reopening and ease social distanc- ing restrictions instituted to “flatten the curve” of infection from SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19), commercial building owners and facility manag- ers are seeking direction in preparing their spaces to a return to near-normal levels of occupancy. World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations have focused on “de-densifying” spaces and disinfection of surfaces, while the ASHRAE Epidemic Task Force’s comprehen- sive Building Readiness guidance addresses strategies for preparing HVAC systems for buildings reopening after COVID-19 closures.1 Still, facility engineers have been wondering whether disinfecting their facility’s HVAC system is a further protective step to take to prepare for reopening—and about what else they should do. While no blanket answer exists to fit every scenario reduced loads or turned off as an energy-saving and every building type, the current science2 indicates measure. that, in general, disinfection of mechanical systems is not likely to be necessary. However, that doesn’t mean How SARS-CoV-2 Transmission Impacts Disinfection there isn’t work to be done—or risks to address before Recommendations reopening or expanding the number of occupants To understand why HVAC system disinfection may not in the space.

  • Assessment of Design Procedures for Vertical Borehole Heat Exchangers
    PROCEEDINGS, Fortieth Workshop on Geothermal Reservoir Engineering Stanford University, Stanford, California, January 26-28, 2015 SGP-TR-204 Assessment of Design Procedures for Vertical Borehole Heat Exchangers Eleonora Sailer1, David M.G. Taborda2 and James Keirstead2 1AECOM, Chelmsford, CM1 1HT, UK, formerly Imperial College London, UK 2Imperial College London, Dept. Civil & Environmental Engineering, London SW7 2AZ UK [email protected] Keywords: Borehole heat exchanger, low enthalpy systems, ground source heat, design guidelines ABSTRACT The use of ground source energy systems is a well-established method to provide low cost heating to buildings, diversify the energy mix and help meeting increasingly stricter sustainability targets. However, considerable uncertainties remain over their efficient design, with several standards, guidelines and manuals being proposed over the last few years. This paper aims at providing insight into the implications to the design of a vertical borehole heat exchanger of the adoption of different design procedures. The hypothetical case of a typical dwelling located in London, UK, is analysed in order to highlight the impact on the final design of the chosen methodology. Moreover, a parametric study using an analytical design procedure was performed to point out the influence of various factors, such as borehole characteristics and thermal properties of the ground. It is shown that there are considerable discrepancies between design methods and that uncertainties in some input parameters, such as the thermal properties of the ground, which for relatively small systems are often selected from tables rather than measured in situ, may have a substantial influence on the length of borehole required. 1. INTRODUCTION Borehole Heat Exchangers (BHE) are one type of Ground Source Heat Pump (GSHP) systems and are classified as low enthalpy geothermal systems since they make use of low temperature differences.

New Guidance for Residential Air Cleaners BY LEW HARRIMAN, FELLOW/LIFE MEMBER ASHRAE; BRENT STEPHENS, PH.D, MEMBER ASHRAE; TERRY BRENNAN, MEMBER ASHRAE As HVAC&R professionals, we in the ASHRAE community are sometimes asked ques- tions about residential indoor air quality (IAQ) and how to improve it. What contami- nants are most hazardous? How do I get rid of a particular smell? Should I use this air cleaner or that filter? Sadly, our friends and family generally lose patience when we helpfully suggest: “Well, it’s complicated. But just read Chapters 46, 60 and 62 in the ASHRAE Handbook—HVAC Applications, because there’s great information in there.” In general, we find that information seekers are frustrated by such helpful advice. Usually, the question is repeated (with some heat) in a form such as: “You’re the professional. Can’t you boil it down? What should I DO in my HOUSE?” Fortunately, two new resources can help you better mainstream and social media. When you get questions answer such questions. First, the ASHRAE Residential from friends and family about residential air filtration Indoor Air Quality Guide1 is a comprehensive summary of and air cleaners, you may find the U.S. Enivronmental IAQ for homes and apartments, written by our mem- Protection Agency’s recently updated publications help- ber colleagues and published by ASHRAE in 2018.

  • Interpretation 62.2-2007-10 – November 8, 2011
    INTERPRETATION IC 62.2-2007-10 OF ANSI/ASHRAE STANDARD 62.2-2007 Ventilation and Acceptable Indoor Air Quality in Low-Rise Residential Buildings Approved November 8, 2011 Request from: Katrin Klingenberg ([email protected]), Passive House Institute US (PHIUS), 110 South Race Street, Suite 202, Urbana, IL 61801. Reference: This request for interpretation refers to the requirements presented in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.2-2007, Section 5.3 and Table 5.2, relating to continuous mechanical exhaust requirements for kitchens. Background: The Passive House Institute US is advocating and promoting the international Passive House Building Energy Standard to be widely adopted in the United States. The Passive House Building Energy Standard core technical piece is an optimized continuous balanced mechanical ventilation system. The supply and exhaust airflows required under this standard are determined a) by indoor air quality fresh air requirements based on occupants under consideration of the airtightness of the envelope and b) the exhaust air requirements based on the number of bathrooms and kitchens. Bathrooms require 24 cfm continuous exhaust and kitchens require 35 cfm continuous exhaust. The kitchen exhaust is part of the continuous balanced mechanical ventilation system with very high heat recovery efficiency and does not need to be vented directly to the outside. Charcoal filtration at the source of cooking is required before the kitchen exhaust air enters the kitchen exhaust intake. In fact, direct venting is to be avoided in a Passive House to minimize unnecessary heat loss through penetrations of the envelope and to optimize the overall energy balance of the home.

  • Meeting IAQ Needs with Enhanced Filtration (A Review of ASHRAE Standards Related to Building Air Quality)
    Carrier Engineering Newsletter Volume 5, Issue 1 Meeting IAQ Needs with Enhanced Filtration (A Review of ASHRAE Standards Related to Building Air Quality) Achieving balance among desired goals for indoor air quality (IAQ), energy consumption, and occupant comfort within the built environment is challenging. The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) endeavors to achieve this through guidelines and standards focused on advancing building science as it relates to environmental quality. This article will review the commonly used design guides found in ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1, “Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality.”1 The current form of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1 employs two mechanical ventilation procedures to provide acceptable IAQ in buildings: the Ventilation Rate Procedure and the Indoor Air Quality Procedure. While the Ventilation Rate Procedure provides only a dilution solution for the control of typical offending contaminants for a specified occupancy, the Indoor Air Quality Procedure provides a directed approach by reducing and controlling the concentrations of selected air contaminants of concern through both dilution and enhanced air cleaning. Rather than relying only on diluting the concentration of contaminants with outdoor air, designing with enhanced filtration of both recirculated and ventilation outdoor air can improve IAQ and result in the protection of the occupied space. This newsletter will focus on the application of enhanced particle, gas-phase and biological filtration for compliance with Standard 62.1. An outline of the design aspects to consider will be reviewed, with the focus on achieving acceptable levels of contaminants of concern within the occupied space while considering the desire to meet high-performance building standards.
