SCHOOLS & PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS

LivingBetter solutions create a healthy indoor climate in schools and childcare institutions.

HEALTHY VENTILATION AT SCHOOLS WITH LIVINGBETTER

Inside schools and other educational institutions, ventilation and a healthy indoor climate tend to walk hand in hand. We human beings are remarkably busy developing in our early years. For this reason, it is vital that kindergartens and childcare facilities have a healthy indoor climate.

A POOR INDOOR CLIMATE AT SCHOOLS AND OTHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IS THE SOURCE OF MANY PROBLEMS

A poor indoor climate may cause fatigue, headaches, a lack of concentration and absence due to illness.

Fortunately, closer attention has been paid to these issues in recent years. 

However, if we seek to provide a healthy indoor climate depending only on conventional ventilation, the issues will not all be resolved. Experts recommend that:

If you seek to create a healthy indoor climate, some people recommend that you buy a mechanical ventilation system dimensioned to extract and draw in correct volumes of air. However, ventilation systems of this type are costly to install in schools, whether your school needs renovation or you build from scratch. 

A mechanical system is also costly to run and when it fails, everyone will experience the same difficulties. As an interim solution, you can choose to open windows to let fresh air in, although this may cause noise problems and mess up mechanical ventilation. Only rarely can a system of this kind tackle open windows because open windows upset the balance of the system.

Cost-effective ventilation for schools and childcare institutions

Whether you are building a new school or renovating an existing one, we have the ideal solution for you. LivingBetter solutions create a healthy indoor climate in schools and childcare institutions. Our solutions work because they exploit natural forces to provide cost-effective ventilation and the healthiest possible solution for users of the building.

The ventilation window function provides a steady intake of air all year round. Temperature-sensitive valves adjust air intake. Fresh air is conditioned as it passes through the ventilation window.

When our passive ventilation windows are installed in your buildings, they provide a constant flow of fresh, conditioned air. The ventilation windows need no power connection. The valves have thermostatic controls. Air exchange takes place automatically via mandatory exhaust air outlets.

The windows with ventilation effect are positioned strategically so that they provide the correct volume of air to classrooms, common rooms and other spaces in the school buildings. A ventilation window costs more than an ordinary triple-glazed panel, but the total investment is typically lower than the alternative: a balanced ventilation system with much ductwork. Moreover, teachers and students receive a constant flow of fresh air without having to open windows and risk noisy disruptions from outside the classroom.

VENTILATION COMBINED WITH HEAT RECOVERY AT SCHOOLS

A centrally located exhaust air heat pump creates negative pressure in the building and therefore consistent air exchange. The heat pump recovers energy from the warm air and uses it to heat water. The energy savings are appreciable.
