Carrier Helps New College of Florida Assess Safety of its Buildings for Reopening
Carrier and NORESCO worked together to conduct IAQ/ventilation assessment
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — New College of Florida selected Carrier to help evaluate the health of its buildings this summer during the global pandemic to help ensure a safe reopening in the fall. Carrier and NORESCO, part of Carrier, conducted both an indoor air quality (IAQ) and ventilation assessment through the company’s Healthy Buildings Program.
NORESCO completed the IAQ study and ventilation assessment in accordance with the National Environmental Balancing Bureau (NEBB) standards. The assessments focused on three buildings that best represent the various ages and types of buildings on campus. The primary focus of the project was to ensure adequate air flow ventilation and particulate matter levels, in accordance with the ASHRAE 6.1 Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality standard and the WELL Building Standard.
