ANSI releases IESO/RIA Standard for comment

September 16, 2010

The American National Standards Institute has released for public comment the industry’s first standard regarding the identification of soot and char in HVAC systems.

Developed by a Restoration Industry Association sub-committee of the Indoor Environmental Standards Organization (IESO) the standard, Evaluation of HVAC interior surfaces to determine the impact from fire-related particulate, took approximately 16 months to develop and recently underwent a peer review by the IESO Consensus Body.

The purpose of the standard is to evaluate whether or not fire-related residue has been deposited on HVAC interior surfaces.
