Air conditioning closely examined

The intricacies of the provision and control of air conditioning in hospitals have been debated for decades. For this Health Estate Journal ‘Then and now’ feature, Mike Arrowsmith BSc (Hons) CEng FIMechE FIHEEM, technical editor, provides commentary on an article which was published in The Hospital Engineer, the journal of the Institution of Hospital Engineers, in July 1960. The text of this article, which was based on a paper read before the Glasgow Branch of the Institution, follows that of the commentary.
