Since the coronavirus spreads easily, especially in poorly ventilated rooms, and this increases the risk of infection, good ventilation is an important protection against infection. Against this background, ventilation systems are becoming more and more important.

Another good reason: the higher the air exchange rate, the fewer aerosols and hence also viruses are present in the air. "Ventilate, ventilate, ventilate" is the order of the day when staying in closed rooms.
