    I agree with the same concerns, HEPA filters need to be sized to the square footage of a class room or portable class room with a minimum air exchanges per hour,
    – ensure that moving forward with these portable HEPA filters does not draw away from the fresh air purging and all the positive mechanical purging that are being
    done and working.
    – these portable HEPA filters do not become a placebo for the academic staff .
    – What is the saturation time on theses portable HEPA filters
    – If a student or academic staff becomes sick and portable HEPA filter are in placed in the room, what is the liability for the college and who is responsible for
    the answer for the design of engineered sizing?

    Kathryn, We are using disposable medical style gloves, N95 mask and normal disposal for our merve 8 filters, I am not sure of your location and your filter selection, If you are using a merve 13 or greater you may want to ensure the used filter is not classified as Bio Hazarded waste , this also may change your required PPE.
