ABSTRACT

An angry complaint is lodged, “There is no oxygen in the room. Everyone is passing out!” The comment comes from an of›ce occupant in a building where this health complaint is unique. The occupant had previously complained about the cold air supplied in her of›ce space. Subsequently, her air supply was turned off, and when accommodating visitors, she closed the door to her already stuffy of›ce. The predictable results were elevated levels of carbon dioxide in a con›ned space.
