We, as building occupants, possess a cognitive dissidence thinking indoor air is cleaner and safer than outdoor air. However, what we can’t see, touch, and smell within the built environment can hurt us.
While deficient indoor air was understood as a temporary nuisance, science shows severe impacts on cognitive function, overall health, and potentially death because of pathogens. Cognizant authorities around the world have pegged ventilation as the cause and solution. Ventilation will improve building resiliency and offer a cleaner and healthier indoor air. But, can increase ventilation with the increased cost to heat and cool be rationalized with energy recovery ventilation?
Three key points or takeaways for the audience:
- What is the chemistry indoors that we previously did not understand?
- How is the physiological operation of the human body impacted by poor indoor air quality?
- What can we do to solve this problem? And can it be a financial benefit to the building owner, operator,
Technology available today will allow building owners and operators to operator demand based ventilation. Demand based ventilation will use sensor to evaluate the indoor environment and increase ventilation rates to lower exposure to occupants. This ventilation will use an advanced enthalpic energy exchanger to recapture the energy already used to cool, heat, dehumidify or humidify the new cleaner outdoor introduced into the space.
