Product Description
For the building owner, administrator, or facilities manager who must deal with the realities of today's indoor environmental concerns, this fully updated reference will serve as a practical, hands-on guide. Readers find readily applicable air quality control measures and preventative strategies that can head off the "headaches" - both economic and legal - that can grow out of an air quality problem. They also learn the critical aspects of complete response and step-by-step investigation tactics and tools. Specific symptoms of building-associated illnesses are detailed, along with practical guidelines for identifying and controlling the associated pollutant or source of the problem.
Reader Reviews
I am a Certified Indoor Environmental Consultant and a board member of the American Indoor Air Quality Council. I have this book in my library. It's a technical read. Probably not recommended for the average consumer. A must have for the professional. You might think you know everything in this book. You probably do. But the diagrams, charts and discussions on how to investigate building related health complaints make a great reference.
