As a part of Victorian Govt. funded research grant project, in the backdrop of climate change, Eco Pacific in collaboration with RMIT University, Melbourne is conducting research and investigations on indoor environments of 5 Age-Care centres and 5 Primary Schools in the state of Victoria. Eco Pacific brand of Fresh filtered air heat recovery ventilators (FAHRV), AussiVents are installed at these sites. The CO2, PM2.5, and pathogens are the primary focus of the data collection and investigations over the changing climatic conditions before and after the AussiVent installations.
