Question

Are the construction IAQ controls included in specifications for tenant renovation or construction projects?

Applicability

Applicable to all buildings (systems or equipment in the owner or landlord’s control)

Answer

  • Yes or No
  • N/A – applicable to non-tenanted buildings only. Please provide supporting documentation demonstrating this building does not have tenants

Description

Specific guidelines must be in place for base-building or tenant renovations and construction projects to ensure that contaminants are not released into the surrounding interior environment and building indoor air quality (IAQ) is maintained.
