IAQ Management:
Occupied Buildings Under
Construction
Any construction or renovation activity which produces odor or dust can be considered a
source of air pollutants and a potential contributor to Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) problems.
Importantly, such pollutants are often considered unacceptable and may give rise to nuisance,
health problems and lost work productivity. During construction or renovation, building
envelopes' are in jeopardy. HVAC equipment and performance are compromised.
Effective management of IAQ and pollutants during this period requires a comprehensive
plan. A plan should address issues such as: Initial Planning, Control Measures, Assignment
of Responsibilities, Communications, Ongoing Management, and Quality Control
Measures. Issues which must be managed are Containing the work area, Modifying HVAC
operations, Reducing emissions, Intensifying housekeeping, Rescheduling work hours or Moving
occupants.
The initiation, control and management of these concerns during the construction process is
a program available through EnviroAnalysis.
