To assess ventilation systems and work practice controls effectiveness in minimizing employee exposure to potentially harmful substances.
To utilize testing results as a basis for determining appropriate safety related changes aimed at reducing employee exposure to potentially harmful substances.
To format documentation in compliance with current guidelines established by the American Institute of Architects Academy of Architecture for Health and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
PROTOCOL
Health Choice will determine ventilation air exchange rates by measuring ventilation supply and exhaust air flow in locations where gases are potentially present. A Shortridge Flowhood will be used to obtain the air flow measurements. Proper positive/negative pressure relations and the recommended air exchange rate for each area of the facility will be evaluated.
