Enhanced HVAC Infection Control: Schools

Continuing our look into occupancy specific building types this paper examines the unique characteristics and challenges of mitigating the spread of airborne diseases in schools.
Our primary objective will be to answer the question:

What should I do to my school’s HVAC systems to improve the safety and comfort of its occupants?

We will review the common systems types found in schools and make recommendations for improving the infection control potential of these systems. We will also examine how well these systems can be adapted to meet the latest infection control standards and recommendations.
