[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband works at a big law office downtown in a high rise with windows that don’t open. That’s why they have ventilation systems. I’m confused why this is an issue.[/quote] There are what are called "sick" buildings built with high energy efficiency in mind, but before air exchange was a standard part of it. I worry about people in those buildings. Outside of call centers and the like, office buildings don't have the sort of people density schools have. On the other hand, there are some schools in a similar situation. I worked in one last year. The building I'm in this year (or will be in shortly, anyway!) is newer, and has an air exchange system they tell us works better with closed windows. Modern air exchange systems can swap air a few times an hour.[/quote]
