NFPA 45 Section 8.3.3. requires negative pressure except in a few instances. You’ll find that this standard is invoked by many of your local building codes.
…Honestly, I don’t know the standard by heart…I just happen to be spending a great deal of time with it lately and it was within reach:o)

Does anyone know if there is a regulation or standard which requires labs to have a negative pressure relative to hallways? Thanks.
