Check List e.
Occupied space readings of carbon monoxide (CO) levels are less than 9.0 PPM.
Outdoor Air CO Reading: 0
Highest CO Location: 0 Reading: All Rooms
Lowest CO Location: Reading:
If the CO level is greater than 9.0 PPM in any space as measured with a handheld device or “leave-in” monitor, the space must be cleared of all occupants and steps taken to correct the problem. The issue will be immediately addressed by maintenance and the Fire Department. (Readings are noted on the attached test data sheet) f.
CO2 levels in any occupied space are below threshold limits. i.
Perform CO2 check with Gray Wolf or other portable device. Measure four times yearly or more often if needed. Measure only in fully occupied rooms. Reading should be less than 700 PPM plus outside air CO2 PPM.
700 PPM + 365; 355; 330; 384 PPM = 1065; 1055; 1050; 1084 PPM
Assume outside CO2 is 350 if temperature is below 41 degrees and air is not stagnant with no- wind.
Record all occupied space CO2 levels on forms provided. Provide the outdoor CO2 level as well as the high and low CO2 extremes below:
Outdoor reading: 365; 355; 330; 384 PPM
Highest CO2 reading – Location: 204; 305; 104; 104 ; Reading of 1015; 1354;1172; 922
PPM
Lowest CO2 reading – Location: Gym; 200; 309W ; Reading of 521; 696; 878 PPM ii.
If reading is above threshold, check univent and air handling dampers to ensure a value is set to provide at least 15 cfm of fresh air intake per student based on average space occupancies. If reading is consistently elevated, then use data logging to monitor CO2 concentrations over time and look for other sources of problems.
