Energy standards and building codes have driven the design of
energy effiecent building as much as,if not more than increased
energy costs over the past decade. The "standard of care" of
the HVAC industry for energ efficent building design
ANSI/ASHRAE /IESNA Standard 90.1, the "Energy Standard
for Buillding Except Low-Rise Buildings".Standard 90.1 includes
requirements for the building envelope,HVAC system lighting,
and other systems withtin a building that consume
energy.Compliance with ASHRAE 90.1 is not just a good idea:
in many jurisdictions it is mandatory.

2010 Facilities Standards for the Public
Buildings

U. S. General Services Administration Office of the Chief Architect

Facilities Standards (P100) Overview

The Facilities Standards for the Public Buildings Service (P-100) establishes design standards
and criteria for new buildings, major and minor alterations, and work in historic structures for the
Public Buildings Service (PBS) of the General Services Administration (GSA). This document
contains policy and technical criteria to be used in the programming, design, and documentation
of GSA buildings.

The Facilities Standards is a building standard: it is not a guideline, textbook, handbook, training
manual, or substitute for the technical competence expected of a design or construction
professional.

UV-C Emitters / Lamps

UV-C Irradiation: Ultraviolet light (C band) systems must be incorporated in all AHU containing
cooling coils. The UV-C lamps must be installed downstream of the coils and above the
condensate pans. UV-C systems must be designed for the minimum irradiance required to
prevent the growth of microorganisms. Ozone concentrations in the discharge air from the UV-C
system must not exceed 50 ppb (see Section 5.3). Systems must be specifically manufactured for
this intended use. Safety interlocks must be provided on all access panels/doors. AHUs large
enough for personnel entry must contain a provision for the deactivation, isolation, and locking
out of the system power source in addition to safety interlocks provided. One or more sight
glasses must be located to allow maintenance personnel to safely determine lamp operation.

correctly. “

UV light, specifically between 200-280nm (UVC or
the germicidal range), inactivates (aka, ‘kills’) at

least two other coronaviruses that are near-relatives of
the COVID-19 virus:

1) SARSCoV-1
2) MERS-CoV
