Program Description
This program describes SFSU’s EH&S processes for maintaining healthy indoor air quality.
Indoor air quality is defined in comparison to set standards for comfort measured by temperature, humidity, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and particulates in the air. Odors are separate component of indoor air quality for which comfort standards don't exist.
Initial concerns about indoor air issue are addressed by the Facilities Services HVAC unit.
If Facilities Services cannot identify the source of the problem, or they have determined that the problem is not coming from their equipment, then EH&S is contacted to investigate further.
CY 2023 Update
The program remains in effect. No changes were necessary in CY 2023.
Mold odors were the subject of several investigations.
