Importance Of A Hospital Hvac System
Hospital air conditioning and hospital ventilation systems are required to meet higher standards
of performance and serve a greater function than those in standard buildings. A hospital HVAC
system is probably the most vital application of HVAC technology in terms of human health,
comfort and safety. Hospital HVAC system design presents unique challenges due to the level of
demands placed on the it, the heating and cooling loads and the requirements for dependability
and hygiene. A hospital air conditioning system also has the added challenge of integrating with
a number of other complex systems not present in conventional buildings. In an emergency
situation having an HVAC team who understands the unique requirements of a hospital HVAC
system can literally be the difference between life and death for some patients.

Hospital Air Conditioning and Hospital Ventilation




In any building, part of the function of the HVAC system is to create a comfortable environment
for occupants. There's no place where occupants can benefit more from comfort than a hospital.
Like in other buildings, hospital air conditioning and hospital ventilation systems are tasked with
controlling air temperature, air flow, air quality and humidity. In the case of a hospital HVAC
system the importance of maintaining the environment goes beyond comfort. It's essential to the
healing and recovery process. Hospital HVAC systems also work with in close coordination with
specific medical practices. For example operating rooms have specific requirements that include
pressurization and higher levels of air filtration in addition to temperature and humidity control.
Other functions specific to hospital HVAC systems include:
* Emergencies Management—Hospital HVAC systems help to detect fires and eliminate smoke
from exits and enclosures. Complex engineered smoke control systems may be needed to aid in
pressurization control.
* Control of Infection—Hospital ventilations systems are one of many tools used to control the
spread of disease within a hospital. Because hospitals and other medical facilities have elevated
levels of pathogens, stringent controls are necessary for the safety of both patients and hospital
staff.
* Control of Hazards—Medical facilities routinely produce fumes and chemicals that present
health or safety hazards to patients and staff. Hospital ventilations systems are part of a filtration
system that helps to control the concentration of contaminants to keep them at safe levels.

Hospital air conditioning and hospital ventilation requirements vary by facility. One thing that
doesn't vary is the need for an expert HVAC team that understands the critical nature of hospital
HVAC systems.
