Beyond Six Feet: Why Distance Alone Won’t Keep Us Safe from Airborne Diseases

Woman sneezing on a crowded bus, showing how airborne diseases spread in enclosed spaces.

The “six-foot rule” became a household phrase during the COVID-19 pandemic – simple guideline that promised safety from airborne diseases through distance. But as scientists have learned more about how respiratory diseases actually spread, this rule has revealed itself to be dangerously incomplete. The Science Behind the Spread of Airborne Diseases When we breathe, speak, […]

The Invisible Threat: Why We Can’t Rely on Symptoms to Detect Contagion

Mother checking daughter's temperature at home, unaware of asymptomatic contagion risks.

The human body is remarkably deceptive when it comes to infectious diseases. We’ve been conditioned to think of illness in terms of visible symptoms: the telltale fever, the persistent cough, the runny nose that signals it’s time to stay home. But this symptom-centric view of contagion represents a dangerous blind spot in our understanding of […]

ASHRAE 2025: The Future of Indoor Air Quality is Taking Shape

Downtown Phoenix skyline with the ASHRAE 2025 Annual Conference logo overlayed.

A few weeks ago, I joined several thousand colleagues in Phoenix, Arizona for the ASHRAE 2025 Annual Conference, one of the two pivotal meetings where the organization conducts its most important business. This year’s conference felt particularly significant as we welcomed our new President, Bil McQuade, and his compelling theme for the 2025-26 ASHRAE Society […]

Beyond Fresh Air: Why ASHRAE’s Ventilation Standards Need Active Air Cleaning

Ductwork layout with building plans illustrating ASHRAE ventilation design.

The COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally changed how we think about indoor air quality. Suddenly, terms like “air changes per hour” and “MERV ratings” entered everyday conversations. But as we’ve learned more about airborne pathogen transmission, a critical question has emerged: Is bringing in fresh outdoor air enough to keep us safe? Recent research suggests the answer […]

Bridging the Gap: How ASHRAE Standards Lead Building Codes and the Case for Early Adoption

Engineers reviewing building design plans to ensure compliance with ASHRAE Standards for indoor air quality and safety.

The relationship between ASHRAE standards and building codes represents one of the most significant dynamics in modern construction and building performance. While building codes establish the minimum legal requirements for construction, ASHRAE standards often serve as the technical foundation that eventually shapes these codes. However, a critical lag time exists between when ASHRAE publishes updated […]

Understanding Pathogen Elimination: A Hierarchy of Resistance

Gloved hand holding petri dish used to study microbes for understanding the pathogen elimination hierarchy in disinfection.

Effective pathogen elimination and control is critical in healthcare settings, food safety, and water treatment. As the lab results demonstrate, different microorganisms exhibit varying levels of resistance to disinfection methods. This resistance hierarchy has important implications for infection prevention strategies.  The Pathogen Elimination Hierarchy  The test results reveal a clear progression from “easiest to kill” […]
