Studies in the US have shown consistently that improved indoor air quality leads to better health outcomes, with reductions in illness symptoms ranging between 13.5 to 87 per cent. The Spot delivers 100 per cent fresh air with a 200-250 per cent increase on AS rates, provides individual thermal control of workspaces and has reduced volatile organic compound exposure through the use of low VOC paints, carpets, and sealants. Each of these improvements will help enhance student wellbeing and focus, and deliver improved educational outcomes. According to Chris White, the University’s Executive Director of Property & Campus Services, “the central environmental focus of the project was IEQ due to its capacity to improve learning outcomes. The great outcomes we achieved in this area were the direct result of having wall-to-wall Green Star Accredited Professionals on the project from Day One”.
