Recognizing that outside air is generally used to dilute odors and/or cool a conditioned space, controls can be applied to (energy) optimize this use in accordance with the demands of the space. Control examples are discussed showing past and current energy-conserving methods of controlling ventilation air in single-zone HVAC units, multizone units, reheat systems, dual-duct systems, and variable volume systems. Applicable parts of ASHRAE Standard 90-75, Section 5, are cross-referenced. Means for volume reduction and/or shutoff when ventilation is not required is also discussed. This includes a review of devices for monitoring and resetting functions associated with ventilation.
