[Bldg-rate] LEED Ventilation for Healthcare Spaces not covered byASHRAE 62.1

[Paul Erickson]

Karen,

In case Appendix E doesn't provide enough clarity, you might take a look at ASHRAE Std 170 (Ventilation of Health Care Facilities).  There's no guarantee that a reviewer would accept a reference to it, but it is much more thorough (and appropriate) than Appendix E.

Karen,

I think this is what you're looking for - Normative Appendix E (pg. 34) has rates for health care facilities.

Cheers,

Eric

Hi All,

I am working on a project for a healthcare facility.  The spaces are mostly exam and dental spaces, as well as waiting areas.  The guidelines for LEED IAQ P1 state that for any spaces not covered by ASHRAE 62.1-2007, the designer should choose a category that best corresponds to the space.  Have any of you had health care facilities certified?  If so, what ASHRAE 62.1 categories did you use for each space type?

Thanks,

--
