Max Sherman, Group Leader of EETD's Energy Performance of Buildings Group has Two Articles About the Draft ASHRAE Standard 62

May 11, 1999

Max Sherman, group leader of EETD's Energy Performance of Buildings Group has written two articles describing the draft ASHRAE Standard 62.2P in the May 1999 editions of the ASHRAE Journal and Contracting Business. Sherman is the chairman of the ASHRAE Standard Project Committee 62.2P. This standard, "Ventilation and Acceptable Indoor Air Quality in Low-Rise Residential Buildings," is now ready for public review. It defines the minimum requirements for mechanical and natural ventilation systems and the building envelope in single-family and low-rise multifamily structures. The intent of the standard is to address public interest in residential indoor air quality and ventilation that has grown with the increase in energy-efficient houses and healthier building materials.
