Ventilation upgrades for schools across B.C.

March 15, 2024 at 2:32 pm  Federal, Politics

Victoria, British Columbia, March 15, 2024 — Ventilation upgrades will ensure students and staff breathe clean air in eight schools across British Columbia, after an investment of $4.2 million from the federal and provincial governments.

Announced by Minister Sean Fraser and Minister Rachna Singh, these improvements will optimize ventilation and air filtration in schools.

In Victoria, funding will help replace aging air handling units and unit ventilators, increasing outdoor air intake at Doncaster Elementary School and Spencer Middle School. The middle school is also adding reheat coils to regulate temperatures and humidity for optimal comfort. The HVAC system controls will be upgraded to a direct digital control system for precise climactic zones throughout the school that can be automated and monitored.

By continuing to work closely with partners across Canada, the federal government is ensuring that Canadians have access to safe spaces supported by infrastructure that promotes resilience and that can connect them to education, jobs, services, amenities, and their communities at large.
