1. Station 3 ?? Air Meters Combustion Analyzer Carbon Monoxide Carbon Dioxide Particles Air Flow Vane Anemometer Exhaust Flow Box Pressures CAZ Test

2. No carbon monoxide should be detected in residential properties.

3. Check outside air CO (set to “zero” outside) any CO found inside is being produced inside, or being re-entrained from flue, etc.

4. CO Poisoning from Combustion Appliance Back-drafting

5. Big Hole in Building!

6. Exhaust appliance in confined space

7. dryer pulling flame out of the heater

8. Supply Air Leak to the outside = Building Depressurized Supply Air Leak to the Outside

9. Supply Duct Leaks to the outside cause building to be Depressurized Supply Duct Leaks to the outside

11. # sq inches for cfm into rooms Icf performance Pv costs kWh now ICBO 50 cfm crawls Forced Air Systems (with insufficient “return”) Door closure causes Room A to be pressurized Zone B with return grill and combustion appliances is now under negative pressure and spillage or backdrafting can occur Can cause back-drafting of combustion devices

12. As CO 2 builds up, so does “everything else”… As CO 2 builds up, so does “everything else”… IAQ Pro-Tip “Everything else” is “Everything else” is too difficult to measure and interpret

13. Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) Generally not a health hazard in buildings by itself. Outside CO 2 levels usually in the 380 ppm range... and rising ! Industrial Standard = 5,000 ppm 96

14. Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) Used to estimate air exchange rates Concentrations above 800 to 1,000 ppm indicate: ■ Crowded spaces ■ Low ventilation rates Based on: – 380 ppm CO 2 outside air – sedentary adult population – steady state indoor air concentration 97

15. Cubic Feet Per Minute (CFM) ~ 15 cubic feet fresh air per minute for each person for classrooms (cfm/p)

16. CO 2 Estimate of Ventilation Over- Ventilated Ideal Under- Ventilated 400 600 800 1,000 1,500 2,000+ Carbon Dioxide parts-per million (ppm) (energy issue) (multiple issues !! )

17. Outside Air ----- 5 cfm/p ----- 10 cfm/p ----- 15 cfm/p ----- 20 cfm/p ----- 25 cfm/p Unacceptable Poor ASHRAE Standard 62 Outdoor Carbon Dioxide (ppm) 2,400 1,400 1,000 800 600 380 (and above) Carbon Dioxide vs. Ventilation Rate 99

18. CO2 Concentration (ppm) OUTSIDE AIR (CFM / PERSON) 30 - 25 - 20 - 15 - 10 - 5 - 0 - 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 | | | 100

19. CO2 Concentration (ppm) OUTSIDE AIR (CFM / PERSON) 30 - 25 - 20 - 15 - 10 - 5 - 0 - 0 1000 2000 3000 4000 5000 | | | 100

20. Using the Vane Anemometer

21. Check exhaust fan flow

22. Exhaust Fan Flow Meter 3- Position Opening: “E1” “E2” “E3”

23. Manometer & Flow Meter This set up measures pressure – must use the table

24. Pressure & CFM Table

26. Manometer & Flow Meter Flow reading direct from meter – “EX device”
