Improving the IAQ in a Mixed-use Building in Toronto

The Quad at York - Phase II comprises around 290,000 sq. ft. and features a variety of floor plans with a myriad of 1-, 2-, 3-, and 4-bedroom styles, plus shared accommodation suites.

One of the stipulations for the building to receive a passing grade by the building inspectors required an adequate supply of outdoor ventilation. The 2012 Ontario Building Code specifically states that new residential buildings must have a way of introducing outdoor air into the building consistently.

420 FIT® 120E Fresh Air Appliances were installed to meet strict codes and tight spaces. Each appliance supplies fresh air to the bedrooms and common living areas while simultaneously removing stale, odorous air from the kitchens and bathrooms.
