This guide is the first and only overview of its kind in the United States. It covers the proper design, engineering, installation, operation, and maintenance of safe and effective heating, ventilation, pressurization, dilution, filtration, and air-conditioning systems for hazardous spaces. The book places particular emphasis on toxic chemicals, asphyxiants, flammable gases, and combustible dusts; it does not touch on radioactive or pathogenic substances.

This guide presents various techniques and methods developed and refined over time by countless experts within specific fields of interest. Readers will gain insight into the best possible means to ensure that a space is effectively ventilated and conditioned for various levels of occupancy while preserving all aspects of the safety and health of the occupants as well as the protection of surrounding facilities.
