Municipalities exchange experiences on indoor air
The city of Schlieren, together with other municipalities, has formed an experience group on the subject of indoor air. The aim is to minimize the spread of the coronavirus, especially in schools and kindergartens. Baden AG from the Limmat Valley is also involved in the group.
The corona pandemic also has consequences for the management of public real estate. The property area of the city of Schlieren has been intensively concerned with the quality of indoor air in recent months. As she reports, she has now formed an indoor air experience group together with other communities. Aarau, Baden, Lindau ZH, Lucerne, Volketswil ZH and Zurich also participate in the group. The Lucerne University of Applied Sciences supports the working group. Schlieren is represented in the group by Philipp Ganz, head of maintenance in the property division.
The experience group wants to minimize the risk of coronavirus spreading, particularly in schools and kindergartens. Various studies have found that an increase in the CO2 content of the room air also facilitates the transmission of viruses through aerosols.
The city of Schlieren also wants to use the experience gained together with its partners in its own commercial premises. The city runs the innovation and young entrepreneur center .
