LifeAire was proud to be a featured topic and guest presenter at the 43rd Annual PA Aviation Conference in Bethlehem, PA, hosted by Lehigh Valley International Airport (LVIA).
This standard, “establishes minimum requirements to reduce the risk of disease transmission by exposure to infectious aerosols in new buildings, existing buildings, and major renovations”. The key driver for the development of Standard 241 was “discussion between ASHRAE and the White House COVID-19 Response Team about the need for new and better IAQ (indoor air quality) standards. ASHRAE was encouraged to take the lead in developing a new standard for control of airborne pathogens.”
