Abstract

Paradigm shift in ventilation from space focused design to occupant focused design is needed. Ventilation, and indoor environmental systems in general, has to focus on source control, advanced air distribution and providing healthy and comfortable microenvironment to each occupant when, where and as much as needed. This will be win-win way to go ahead.
