SYDNEY - AussieJournal -- Effective air conditioning isn't just about keeping a building cool — it plays a critical role in employee wellbeing, focus and productivity. Consistent temperature control, good ventilation and the right amount of outside air can make a measurable difference in how people perform each day.

Employees spend long hours indoors, and poorly ventilated spaces can quickly lead to fatigue, headaches and reduced concentration. Research shows that elevated carbon dioxide levels and indoor pollutants can impact cognitive function, affecting decision-making, memory and problem-solving.

Temperature matters too. Even moderately raised temperatures can reduce work accuracy and slow response times. That's why effective ventilation, bringing in fresh outside air and removing stale, CO₂-rich air, is essential. Modern HVAC systems can be optimised to improve fresh air delivery, helping staff stay alert, comfortable and productive.
