ATLANTA - Given that people spend 90 percent of their day indoors, they expect their indoor environments to be safe, healthy, and comfortable. To help designers, engineers, contractors, and others meet those expectations, indoor air quality and comfort will be a major focus of the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) 2004 Annual Meeting technical program.
Ninety-three technical program sessions will be presented at the meeting, which takes place June 26-30, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center, Nashville, Tenn. According to ASHRAE, some 25 sessions will focus on indoor air quality and comfort as well as ventilation and air distribution.
