Among other requirements, the standard requires a home to have a mechanical ventilation system capable of ventilating at a rate of 1 cfm for every 100 square feet of occupiable space plus 7.5 cfm per occupant.<\/span> committee doesn&#8217;t mean nothing&#8217;s going on.

Membership is open to anyone in the HVAC&amp;R field; the organization has about 50,000 members.<br \/>\n<\/span> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenbuildingadvisor.com\/blogs\/dept\/building-science\/resistance-may-not-be-futile-residential-ventilation-wars\">introduced his own ventilation &#8220;standard&#8221;<\/a> in 2013. Then the &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenbuildingadvisor.com\/blogs\/dept\/building-science\/great-ventilation-debate-live-aci-conference\">Great Ventilation Debate<\/a>&#8221; happened in Detroit, and he got back on the ASHRAE 62.2 committee.<\/p>\n<p>Stuff happened and now RESNET just put an interesting amendment out for public comment.
