If you are also among the parents who live daily with the worry of sending their children to school, where “changing the air” means keeping the windows open for hours, despite the winter temperatures and despite air pollution is now a dominant component of the air we breathe, then you will be interested to read the following…

The Controlled Mechanical Ventilation systems (VMC) are able to ensure a constant and effective recirculation of air: the filters contained in the device purify the external air from pollutants before entering the room; at the same time, the internal one rich in carbon dioxide and other microorganisms is aspirated and conducted externally. This process is automatico and, if applied in schools, would have a series of advantages: firs of all, it would not affect the normal course of school activity and would allow the presence of more students per class; finally, the spread of viruses, like flu, would be drastically reduced.

In addition, thanks to this systems, will be possible respect the requirements of school buildings standard on air exchange.

Buying mechanical ventilation systems to equip an entire school is an important step to reduce waste and energy costs generated by opening windows. A VMC system is in fact able to preheat the cold air that is introduced thanks to the heat exchanger, managing to recover up to 80% of the heat contained in the outlet air and use it to heat the incoming air. Also, remind the heads of your reference institutes that, as part of the interventions that increase the energy efficiency of a building, you can buy VMC systems by including them in a project of building renovation and enjoy the bonus of 50%, or may be associated with one of the driving actions contemplated by the Super Bonus 110%.
