Inquiry

As stated in EQc7.2 ruling dated 5/16/2003, IEQ Credits 7.1 and 7.2 work together. If ASHRAE-55 2004 is an acceptable standard for Credit 7.1, can it be reasonably assumed that it is also acceptable for Credit 7.2? The new standard does not require minimum humidity levels and the psychrometric data verifies that maximum humidity levels will not be exceeded. Based on this reasoning, is it necessary to install humidity monitoring equipment in our project to meet the intent of this credit?
