Are there any potentially costly fixes for schools which may be needed to help ensure good IAQ?
Although the majority of the recommendations in the kit are either no cost or low cost, due to the limited maintenance budget for school buildings there are potentially two fixes which could be costly. The first is a leaky roof, which can cause water damage inside the building and may lead to microbial contamination (mold, fungi, bacteria). Secondly, if the ventilation system has been allowed to deteriorate, there may be significant costs involved in returning the system to its original design and/or building code intent.
