Finding F-1250

“On contrary to PM and PNC, TVOCs were higher (1.1–4.2 times) in studios than in C&B areas, due to the limited ventilations combined with the smaller room areas/ volumes.”

Structure

Factor: Total volatile organic compounds (TVOC)
Population: users and staff of health clubs
Setting: health club, PT
Study design: measurement campaign in eight health clubs in Porto, Portugal, under the occupancy and ventilation restrictions of the pandemic period: particulate matter as PM10 and PM2.5, particle number concentration between 20 and 1000 nanometres, total volatile organic compounds, carbon dioxide, ozone, temperature and relative humidity measured during occupied periods in the cardiofitness and bodybuilding areas and in the group class studios (class 4)
Caveat: the study attributes the difference to the limited ventilation and the smaller volume of the studios
