Since the first COVID outbreak in 2020, schools have been considered a substantial issue with regard to the spread of the disease, as they represent indoor environments that are continuously occupied most of the time. Several studies have underscored the crucial role of mechanical ventilation systems in the fight against any pandemic caused by airborne pathogens. AiCARR, through its associated companies, donated a mechanical ventilation system to a public school in Rho, Milan province (IT). The primary objective of the installation was to enhance safety by diluting indoor contaminants, improving indoor air quality, and ensuring thermal comfort. During the course of the project, the focus included advancing energy efficiency and reducing operational and maintenance costs. This article presents the first year operational data recorded by the monitoring system that include outdoor and indoor air temperature, relative humidity, CO2 concentration and unit electric consumption.
