Installation & Operation Instructions

Option 1:  Calculating Airflow Requirement Using ASHRAE 62.2-2016 Airflow Equation

ASHRAE Airflow in CFM = [House Area in Sq.Ft. x 0.03] + [(Number of Be1) x 7.5]
NOTE: Use ‘Number of Be 1’ or ‘Number of Occupants’, whichever is larger.

Example 1: Number of Be 1

1800 square foot house with 3 bedrooms, 4 occupants = [1800 X 0.03] + [(3+1) X 7.5] = 84 CFM
Example 2: Number of Occupants

1800 square foot house with 3 bedrooms, 5 occupants = [1800 X 0.03] + [5 X 7.5] = 91.5 CFM

Record the required CFM ____________

FRESH AIR VENTILATION

Determine Ventilation Requirements

The MINIMUM ventilation requirement is calculated using ASHRAE 62.2-2016. Use one or both of the options 

below to determine your ventilation requirement. Follow all local and national building and safety codes.

Option 2: Calculating Airflow Requirement Using Table 4.1 from ASHRAE 62.2-2016
