FAQ

CO₂ is commonly used as an indicator of ventilation performance. High concentrations generally suggest that insufficient fresh outdoor air is reaching the occupied space. FabricAir’s referenced European classroom research found that 81% of the classrooms reviewed exceeded 1,000 ppm, highlighting how common inadequate ventilation can be.

The profile can be selected according to the available headroom. Round ducts work well in many open-ceiling spaces, while D-shaped and other low-profile configurations can be used where the duct needs to sit closer to a hard ceiling.

Yes. FabricAir offers different standard colours as well as printable fabric options. This allows the air distribution system to coordinate with school colours, branding or the architectural character of classrooms, sports halls and libraries.

Libraries and classrooms are designed for concentration, communication and focused work. HVAC systems should therefore provide sufficient airflow without creating excessive mechanical noise or uncomfortable draughts.

Warranty and expected service life depend on the selected fabric, operating conditions and maintenance. Some FabricAir fabrics carry a 10-year warranty, but project teams should check the documentation for the specific textile rather than assume all products have identical terms.
