- Title
Building Operations: Balancing Energy Efficiency with Indoor Air Quality.
- Authors
Doty, Steve
- Abstract
Energy efficiency measures (ECMs) and indoor air quality (IAQ) have different goals, but often have overlapping results; sometimes good, sometimes bad. Many ECMs have potential IAQ complications; conversely many IAQ improvement measures increase energy use. The two are inseparable and competing, so the best overall outcome involves a careful balance. This article illustrates some examples of the overlap between energy and air quality, and provide examples of activities that can spoil the delicate balance between them.
