Pathogen Control in the Space!
GPS’ ASHRAE BASED IAQ Software1. Calculates Ventilation Rate Based on VRP
2. Simultaneously Calculates OA Based on IAQ Procedure with NO Extra Time Required!
3. Consultants Can Add Extra Value to Owner
4. Reduces Engineering Labor
5. Lowers First Costs, Operating Costs and Provides Better IAQ
6. Easy to Use
• IMC 2006 & 2009 includes a provision for engineered ventilation systems– Section 403.2 – Exception
ICC / IMC
Does It Really Work?
• 3rd Party Testing On Previous Installations Prove Compliance Using GPS’ Technology
– Holy Trinity Catholic School, Bay St. Louis, MS» Testing Provided by Green Clean Air, Reston, VA
– Roanoke, VA Office Space» Testing Provided by Air Advice
– Annistown ES – Coming Soon» Testing will be provided by Bureau VERITAS» Brad Gilber
UL 867 GPS-RN tested by Intertek/ETL to prove compliance to UL 867.
UL 867 Section 37.2.1. "The test is to be conducted in a chamber having a volume of 950-1100 cubic feet with a minimum side dimension of 8 feet and a maximum height dimension of 10 feet..."
New UL 867 as of December 21, 2007 requires ozone peak and chamber testing
GPS results: Peak Ozone: 0.0042 PPM @ 2.0 inches from needlesChamber: 0.007 PPM (24 hour test)
Max Allowed Limit: 0.05 PPM
GPS is 1/7 of the allowable limit!
This is specifiable and all manufactures should comply!
