SPC conducted indoor air quality assessment at various City Colleges of Chicago (CCC) facilities. IAQ testing was conducted after the completion of the construction work in order to determine that ventilation is working effectively and the levels of construction-related dust, fumes are not building-up in any of the occupied areas. The HVAC system supplying air to these areas were checked to determine whether there are issues related to fresh-air intakes, mixing of air, filters, heating coils, cooling coils, condensate drainage, and overall functioning of the system. Air quality monitoring was conducted in the areas of concerns for the following indoor air quality parameters: carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), airborne particulates (PM10), temperature, and relative humidity.
