The pandemic has changed our lives for good.
Things will never fully return to the way they were.
In fact, life has changed so much in the last 2 years. For instance, more people are concerned about ventilation in their homes & in public spaces. Schools are now approving budgets for improving their Heating & A/C systems & installing air purification devices to improve the indoor air conditions. My teenagers’ colleges have done just that, & it makes myself and others assume a lot safer sending them to college. However, this discussion about indoor ventilation made myself and others realize how many teenagers go to colleges that have no air conditioner at all. There are many colleges that were built before central air conditioner was installed in commercial buildings, which means many of those older buildings have no air conditioner. And over the years, the college board did not invest in getting Heating & A/C systems for the colleges because it would’ve been costly to retrofit some of those buildings with the insulation needed. Also, some of the buildings do not have the space for insulation, so installing an Heating & A/C plan would be a strenuous process. Well, I was cheerful to learn that over the last few years, some colleges have figured out how to get air conditioner installed inside the older buildings. And the pandemic has released more funds to the college boards, which will in turn help more colleges get the that they need. This is great news because not only will the central air help to improve the air quality, but it will also make the teenagers a lot more comfortable inside the college buildings.
