Impact of ISO 16890 on ASHRAE Standards and Guidelines

It is very likely that ISO 16890 will be published in 2016 and replace the EN779 in Europe. With a more globalized world this standard will also affect the evaluation of filter performance in the US, but how does this standard affect standards and guidelines published by ASHRAE? In this work, we will discuss: Which ASHRAE standards reference to ASHRAE 52.2 and would be affected if 52.2 was replaced by ISO 16890? What are the effects on filter manufacturers, filter laboratories and users of filtration products?
