A proposal for the classification of the cleanliness of new ventilation systems.

The Finnish Society of Indoor Air Quality and Climate has prepared a proposal for the classification of the cleanliness of new ventilation systems and components. The document supplements the classifications of indoor climate, construction cleanliness and material emissions published in 1995. The classification of the cleanliness of the ventilation systems consists of two parts: a classification of the cleanliness of ventilation components and a guideline for the design and construction of clean ventilation systems. The proposal will undergo an open review during next winter. After necessary modifications, the final version of the classification will probably be published in the spring of 1999.
