A nearby college includes a building, surrounded by an
outdoor arcade, at street level. At one point, the warm
internal air is expelled, which is natural, they perform
continuous circulation. A nice spot, on a cold night!
However, I wonder, is there any hazard in breathing that air?
Is it chemically processed somehow, contaminated?
And, isn't it inefficient? The outgoing air ought to
pass through a heat exchanger, to warm the incoming air.
Isn't that wasted energy?

possibly it has less oxygen that fresh air, possibly stink and virus

In article <34d62748-1e16-4bd2...@googlegroups.com>,

Usually the air is passed through a heat exchanger so some of the hot
inside air will heat the cold outside air before it enters the building.
There is no chemicals involved. You will be exposed to a combination of
all the air in all the rooms in the building. Could be a good way to
contract any virus that anyone in the building has.
