The Peterborough Board of Health calls for at least six air exchanges per hour and the use of HEPA filters or filters with a MERV 13 rating in HVAC systems
An Ontario board of health is asking the province to amend the building code to mandate higher standards for ventilation, in light of the spread of COVID-19.
“Improvements to indoor air quality of the spaces we occupy are necessary and life-saving to truly control how the SARS-CoV2 virus and other respiratory/airborne pathogens spread.” Those standards would align with recommendations from the Ontario Society of Professional Engineers, Wilson wrote. Ontario is working on harmonizing its building code with national construction codes, in an Ottawa-led effort, and the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing said the province’s next edition of the building code is expected to be finalized this year and in effect next year.
