Indoor air quality has been both much
debated and much feared in recent years.
This guide provides a comprehensive
account of indoor air quality hazards, their sources, and appropriate solutions.
Written in easy-to-understand,
non-technical terms, it is designed to be used as both a ready reference and
training guide for managers of all types of facilities.
Each specific type of indoor air
hazard is addressed, including allergens, asbestos, formaldehyde and VOCs,
radon, tobacco smoke, legionellosis and related illnesses, carbon monoxide,
multiple chemical sensitivity, and toxic mold.
The basics of proper ventilation and
the relationship of the HVAC system to indoor air quality are fully explained.
Fundamental procedures for
maintaining good air quality, including filtration, control of humidity and
moisture, and duct cleaning are examined in detail.
A full chapter is devoted to recent
developments and procedures for controlling toxic mold.
Case studies, an HVAC glossary, and
several helpful directories are also included. |
