As schools open again this fall in Ontario, indoor air quality in schools has become a timely topic.
For a high occupancy building such as a school or day care environment, proper ventilation, humidity control and air purification is essential to ensure the safety of its occupants.
All schools should know their Air Changes Per Hour (ACH), relative humidity as well as airborne particle concentration for class rooms and lecture halls.
Airborne and surface contact allergens such as mould, bacteria as well as viruses thrive in poorly ventilated indoor spaces with poor humidity control and ineffective air purification systems.
Have your school or day care tested for indoor air quality to ensure the safety of your staff and students.
