The Indoor Air Quality Policy for Maintenance and Renovations should adhere to which standards?

  1. ASHRAE

  2. SMACNA

  3. ISO 9001

  4. OSHA

The correct answer is: SMACNA

The Indoor Air Quality Policy for Maintenance and Renovations aligns with the standards set by SMACNA (Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors' National Association). SMACNA provides guidelines specifically focused on HVAC system design, installation, and maintenance that help ensure good indoor air quality. Their standards emphasize practices that reduce dust, contaminants, and other pollutants during maintenance and renovations, thereby fostering a healthier indoor environment. In contrast, while ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) does contribute to indoor air quality guidelines, particularly in system design and performance, it may not focus exclusively on maintenance and renovation practices. ISO 9001 relates to quality management systems and isn't specifically tailored for indoor air quality. OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) provides regulations for workplace safety, which may touch on aspects of indoor air quality but does not directly set out a policy for maintenance and renovations in the same context as SMACNA.
