What is HVAC?

Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) is responsible for sufficiently heating and cooling a building to provide a comfortable temperature and adequate indoor air quality.

These systems help to maintain comfort and productivity levels.

Heating

Heating is important in the workplace , balancing good ventilation and well-heated rooms can be difficult, but it’s something that must be done to create a safe working environment. Heating systems should be regularly serviced to prevent downtime, particularly in the winter.

We have produced a blog on the importance of winter heating health checks that explains this in more detail.

Ventilation

Good ventilation in the workplace is essential. According to the Health and Safety Executive, ventilation should be considered as a control measure to reduce the risk of transmission of COVID-19 in the workplace.

The circulation of clean air through a room will remove any stagnant air and any pollutants, allergens and other particles along with it.

This can help to improve productivity and create a healthier working environment.

Air Conditioning

Air conditioning (often referred to as AC, A/C or air con) is a system used to heat or cool the temperature in an inside space. An air conditioners convert refrigerant gas into liquid and back again, using chemicals to remove the warm or cool air, depending on the desired room or space temperature.

There are many types of air conditioning systems found in the workplace, some air conditioning systems will be simply recirculating air throughout a room instead of using air that comes from a fresh supply.
Since the pandemic, it’s more important than ever to only have fresh air circulation in indoor spaces.

KPFM recommend using air conditioning systems that use a fresh air supply or ensuring that there is a sufficient supply of outdoor air at all times, such as windows or doors remaining open.
