ASHRAE, IAQA agree to join forces

Indoor Air Quality Association will become a part of ASHRAE while maintaining its own brand and board of directors


The Indoor Air Quality Association will become a part of ASHRAE while maintaining its own brand and board of directors, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.

ASHRAE and IAQA have agreed in principle to join forces pending a three- to six-month period of due diligence. IAQA will operate independently within ASHRAE’s organizational structure. 

“This merger is beneficial to both ASHRAE and IAQA in that it strengthens the programs and services of both organizations,” Tom Phoenix, ASHRAE president, said in the article. “The work of IAQA complements the work of ASHRAE in its standards, research, publications and educational offerings. We now combine our resources to ensure the industry receives the best indoor air quality technical guidance and educational programs possible, which means improved indoor air quality for the world around us.”
