  • 1.  HVAC Air Quality Recommendations

    Posted 03-03-2025 08:39 AM
    Hello All,

    The HVAC unit that serves our Collections Storage area is at the end of its service and needs to be replaced. Unlike temperature and relative humidity standards, I've discovered that data on recommended air quality thresholds for museums is challenging to find. 

    What are the recommended air quality thresholds/datasets for museums? 

    Thank you!

    Try American Association of Heating, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning Engineers.

    If you search on "museum" it will come up with a list of articles.  FYI - You might have to purchase the copy.
