Building commissioning requirements for commercial buildings are slowly being accepted throughout the country but it is excluded from the mandatory requirements in some states, such as California, according to an article on the Medical Construction & Design website.
The article looks at gaps between commissioning best practices and minimum code requirements for new facilities.
The American Society for Healthcare Engineering released the Healthcare Facility Commissioning Guidelines in 2010, which follows general commissioning best practices but includes some specific requirements for healthcare facilities.
The systems covered within ASHE’s guidelines include: building envelope, life safety, HVAC systems, controls, plumbing systems, medical gas and other specialty systems, electrical systems, fire alarm systems, information technology, fire protection systems, interior and exterior lighting, refrigeration, vertical transport and materials and pharmaceutical handling.
