Invest Renewal Dollars Now – Where It Matters, Ventilation!
Indoor air quality (IAQ) has been at the forefront since the pandemic and continues to be a key issue at all levels within school boards across Ontario. As CVRIS funding expires, alternate funding sources and strategies will need to be considered as the demand for ventilation systems improvements remains high amongst stakeholders as well as ongoing measurement of IAQ in schools.
Fact:
Schools HVAC leak conditioned air on average 20%. This translates into less air volume/air flow and increased costs
Pressures:
Indoor Air Quality pressures from Board Stakeholders
Rising energy and carbon reduction cost pressures
Meet Board and Federal Energy & GHG reduction goals
Challenge:
Spend Annual Renewal & Reserve Capital Effectively
Limitations:
Human resources, spending within the ministries timeframe, supply chain issues.
Need:
