5th AIVC Conference "The implementation and effectiveness of air infiltration standards in buildings" Nevada, US, 1-4 October 1984
The air infiltration associated with ventilation in buildings is recognized in ASHRAE Standard 62-1981, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality. In the light of recent trends toward increasingly tight housing, which limits air infiltration for ventilation, dependence on this source of outside air is onepoint that must be carefully considered in the Revised Standard. Other points to be considered are ventilation efficiency, necessary dilution of particulates and other pollutants, and how changes in humidity, air temperature and local heating may alter pollution levels in buildings.
