Ventilation

Fresh air is essential for human existence. One of the important
processes of living is inhalation and exhalation. The dirty air exhaled
by the breathing process is replaced by clean, fresh air inhaled by
nostrils. The foul breath breathed out gets mixed up with fresh air
and is to be separated so that fresh air is available for the breathing
process to continue. _
Ventilation means the availability of pure, fresh air in abundant
quantity. It also means bringing inside a house or a place of work
plenty of sunlight. This is done through doors, window and open
spaces. For a good flow of air, there should be doors aad wine
opposite directions éxactly facing each other and at the sa
