Standards and Codes

Standards Chair: Mark P Modera

According to the Society TC 5.12 is the cognizant Technical Committee for:

ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2004, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality (in Commercial, Institutional and High-Rise Residential Buildings)

ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.2-2004, Ventilation and Acceptable IAQ in Low-Rise Residential Buildings

ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 119-1988 (RA05), Air Leakage Performance for Detached Single-Family Residential Buildings

ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 136-1993 (RA01), A Method of Determining Air Change Rates in Detached Dwellings

Standard Project Committee (SPC) 161P, Air Quality within Commercial Aircraft. CoC, TC 9.3 is the lead TC.

There are separate committees for writing (P = proposed) and revision (R) of the above standards. However, basic ventilation and infiltration research, handbook, honors, and program issues can be handled by TC 5.12.

If you have an idea for a new standard related to TC 5.12's scope, please contact the TC's Standards Subcommittee Chair. If you have research or program ideas related to the TC's existing or proposed standards or any other ventilation or infiltration issues, please forward them to the appropriate subcommittee Chair. But even more effective is to attend our TC's meetings and be prepared to work on your and others' ideas! Those who attend consistently and perform tasks are encouraged to immediately become corresponding members of the TC and may quickly become voting members.
