New York S08078 mandates that openable windows in newly developed residential units must meet mechanical ventilation standards.

New York S08078 amends the multiple dwelling law to require openable windows in newly developed residential units to comply with mechanical ventilation standards. These standards are set forth in ASHRAE Standard 62.1, "Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality," or any successor standard. The law applies to residential units developed from scratch or through the conversion of non-residential buildings. Compliance with these standards ensures adequate indoor air quality and airflow through mechanical ventilation systems.
