ventilation efficiency

Ventilation efficiency measures how well fresh outdoor air replaces or mixes with indoor air to maintain a healthy environment. High efficiency means the air within a space is quickly and thoroughly renewed, reducing pollutants, odors, and moisture buildup. This depends on the ventilation system design, air movement, and how effectively it distributes air throughout the area. An efficient ventilation system ensures good indoor air quality with minimal energy use, creating a comfortable and safe environment. Essentially, it’s a measure of how effectively a building’s ventilation system supplies fresh air and removes indoor contaminants.
