LEED Green Associate (LEED GA) — Question 95

What standard ensures adequate ventilation is supplied to building occupants?

Answer options

• A. ASHRAE 55
• B. ASHRAE 62.1
• C. ASHRAE 90.1
• D. ASHRAE 189.1

Correct answer: B

Explanation

ASHRAE 62.1 specifically addresses ventilation requirements for commercial buildings, ensuring that indoor air quality is maintained for occupants. While ASHRAE 55 focuses on thermal comfort, ASHRAE 90.1 relates to energy efficiency, and ASHRAE 189.1 covers high-performance green buildings, none of these standards directly address ventilation needs as comprehensively as ASHRAE 62.1.
