Questions and Answers

Q: You're reviewing trend data after a filter upgrade and searching for "MERV 13 filter increased pressure drop downstream airflow reduction allergen control". The AHU supply airflow has dropped 7% after installing MERV 13 filters, while fan speed and damper positions are unchanged. Indoor PM2.5 counts are flat but pollen counts at diffusers are rising. What response aligns with allergen control intent without adding new failure modes?

A: The 7% airflow loss is the trigger. MERV 13 relies on face velocity staying near design; boosting fan speed recovers capture efficiency without sacrificing filtration class. Opening OA shifts the allergen source upstream, and downgrading media trades a known control for dilution risk.

Q: During SAT you're googling "HVAC allergen control pre-commissioning verification sequence HEPA terminal units". The project includes terminal HEPA filters in a healthcare waiting area. What verification sequence actually proves allergen control before occupancy?

Q: An engineer searches "humidifier stainless steel corrosion indoor air quality allergen control" after repeated failures. The HVAC humidifier operates at 95% RH with chloramine-treated makeup water. Which degradation mechanism is driving the issue?

Q: You're stuck on "calculate air changes per hour allergen dilution classroom". A classroom is 180 m² with a 3 m ceiling and receives 1,620 m³/h of supply air. What is the ACH?

Q: During DFMEA review someone searches "increasing outdoor air allergen spike spring season HVAC". Outdoor pollen counts spike 40% over baseline. The system responds by increasing OA fraction from 20% to 40% while keeping filters constant. What downstream effect should you expect?

Q: You're on-site googling "verify HVAC particulate sensors calibration acceptance test". The PM sensor reads 8 µg/m³ while a handheld reference reads 11 µg/m³. Spec allows ±20%. What is the correct action before sign-off?

Q: A colleague searches "duct liner material microbial growth allergen control HVAC". Which material choice best limits allergen accumulation in supply ducts?

Q: You're calculating "filter face velocity impact on MERV 13 efficiency". A filter bank has 1.2 m² face area and handles 2,400 m³/h. What is the face velocity?

Q: Engineering searches "humidity control dust mite allergen threshold HVAC" after a trend review. Indoor RH drifts from 45% to 60% over three weeks, still inside spec. What risk increases most?

Q: You're validating "calculate clean air delivery rate CADR HVAC allergen control" for a space before SOP. A portable unit supplies 400 m³/h with 85% single-pass removal efficiency for pollen. What is the CADR?
