Analysis of Indoor Air Quality in a Kindergarten

Abstract

Today in addition to the design of structures, layout solutions, and the design of suitable materials, the modern construction industry also addresses meeting the requirements for the energy performance of a building, with which the topic of the quality of the indoor environment is fully intertwined. Comfort in the use of buildings, and especially the provision of thermal comfort, is a fundamental aspect in the design of technical equipment systems, where a properly selected system regulating the indoor environment can affect b oth t he e nergy p erformance o f t he building and the quality of the indoor environment. One of the important factors is the air quality, where the main factor that af-fects the indoor environment is the concentration of CO2, whose value affects the biological functions of the human organism. The subject of this research is an evaluation of the indoor air quality in a kindergarten because children are more sensitive to environmental influences.
