Public schools; indoor air quality; industry-recognized uniform inspection and evaluation. Adjusts the list of individuals who may perform the industry-recognized uniform inspection and evaluation of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system that is required at least every four years for each public elementary and secondary school building by removing technicians with a Master HVAC License from the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation and requiring any mechanical engineer who performs such inspection and evaluation to be certified to perform testing, adjusting, and balancing of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems by the Associated Air Balance Council, the National Environmental Balancing Bureau, or the Testing, Adjusting and Balancing Bureau. The bill also adds several items that are required to be included in such inspection and evaluation, including measurement of radon levels in the air and testing for moisture incursion.
