CLM-OFFICE-001

More outdoor air, less office odour ↗

In a normally furnished office, raising the outdoor air supply from 3 to 10 and 30 L/s per person reduced the share of people dissatisfied with the air and the perceived intensity of odour, and made the air seem fresher.

Groups of female subjects in one office during 4.6-hour sessions; it concerns perceived air quality, not the smell of offices in general.
