The article provides information on the perceived unit ventilator (UV) issues and one designer's successful solutions. According to the author, UVs' outage will only affect one room and not the whole building compared to a central system such as VAV. Meanwhile, under-the window-unit-ventilators (UWUVs) are hard to do work on when things do need maintenance. He emphasized that UV must be considered when doing renovations of existing UV schools.
