Occupancy method

Derives the ventilation rate from the number of people that will occupy the
space at any given time. Example: For an office, the recommended ventilation
rate is 20 cfm per person. The occupancy of a general office is one person per
80 to 150 sq. ft.Hul 11, 2022
ASHRAE (formerly called the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating
and Air-Conditioning Engineers) recommends (in its Standard 62.2-
2016, "Ventilation and Acceptable Indoor Air Quality in Residential
Buildings") that homes receive 0.35 air changes per hour but not less
than 15 cubic feet of air per minute (cfm) per ...

ASHRAE recommends that this amount should not be less than 15 cubic feet of air per minute per
person. In a home of four, therefore, it should be 60 cubic feet of air per minute at minimum.

How to Get More Fresh Air


Homes aren’t air-proof, which means that they breathe to some degree. However, no building will get enough
fresh air without a strong ventilation system. You have two major options to increase the amount of fresh air that
you get:

 Local ventilation: These are relatively small fans that add fresh air, and vent stale air, in a small area of
your home. It’s a great solution for spaces that generate an unusual amount of air pollutants from smells
to humidity. Local ventilators are common in kitchens and bathrooms.
 Whole home fans: Whole-home fans are a more powerful option that can move more fresh air into your
home. They do not need to undermine your energy efficiency and let all of your furnace or air
conditioner’s hard work go to waste. Instead, whole home fans can use heatexchange systems. In winter,
they can take the heat out of your home’s air before venting it and add that heat to the fresh air it brings
in.
