The author presents an example of ventilation for high-standing collective dwellings with a system that combines thermal comfort and healthy ventilation. It consists in picking air on the roof and dispatching it into the building with a vertical tubing. The air is filtered then pulsed by a fan and dispatched in the dwellings via horizontal tubes.
That system solves the acoustic problem too in so far as air is taken on the roof with no air entry on the facade.
