Elsevier -- Ventilation for Environmental Tobacco Smoke - Controlling ETS Irritants Where Smoking is Allowed PDF

Odor and irritation play a prominent role in the quality of air when environmental tobacco smoke is present within a building. This book offers guidance to HVAC designers so they can provide better, more efficient units for ventilation, thus creating optimized air quality, comfort, and energy use.

This design guide focuses primarily on the design structure of units and less on the requirements of codes and guidelines. With the proper guidance, HVAC designers will be able to produce a highly efficient system that will assure companies and clients they are receiving quality ventilation flow.

This guide can be used as an introduction to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), as a refresher to those within the HVAC industry, a tool to stimulate more discussion and research, as well as a reference for architects and building owners who already have experience with ETS concerns.
