Reducing ventilation heat losses by air quality control. Luftungsverluste senken durch Luftqualitatsregelung.

States that in localities which must be ventilated by law such as cinemas, restaurants and assembly rooms of various kinds the fresh air supply is often greatly in excess of what is strictly needed. This excess air has to be transported, and possibly heated, cooled, humidified and dehumidified. Describes how controlling the air quality makes it possible to restrict the quantity of fresh air to the basic requirements, thereby keeping ventilation heat losses to a minimum. The control variable is the room air quality as monitored by a sensor.
