What must a project with natural ventilation do to comply with EQ prerequisite: Minimum AQ performance?

Determine the minimum outdoor air opening requirements using the natural ventilation procedure
Confirm the presence of ductless systems
Check for emergency exits only
Replace all windows with triple-pane glass

The correct answer is: Determine the minimum outdoor air opening requirements using the natural ventilation procedure

To comply with the EQ prerequisite concerning Minimum Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Performance, a project utilizing natural ventilation must determine the minimum outdoor air opening requirements using the natural ventilation procedure. This involves calculating the necessary amount of outdoor air needed to maintain acceptable indoor air quality levels, which is essential for ensuring occupant health and comfort. The natural ventilation procedure provides guidelines on the minimum amount of outdoor air that should be introduced into the indoor environment based on factors such as occupancy, space usage, and the building's design. By following this procedure, the project can effectively demonstrate that it meets the prerequisite for sufficient ventilation, ensuring that pollutants are effectively diluted and removed from the indoor space. The other choices, while they may relate to certain aspects of building ventilation and design, do not specifically address the requirement to establish adequate outdoor air openings for compliance with the prerequisite aimed at enhancing indoor air quality.
