HVAC systems and indoor plant growth
The other day I was taking a stroll through the office building where my friend worked at.
I noticed something odd.
This building had lush green plants of many sizes decorating the lobby. I am a plant lover, so I was fascinated by the resilience and beauty in the face of the air conditioning system. I was wondering if the HVAC system would be harmful to the indoor plants, so I wanted to talk to the person at the front desk. The lady gave me a friendly grin and pointed to a man in a blue uniform who was fixing the air conditioning system on the other side of the main floor. I approached the man and introduced myself. I asked him and he smiled and said this is a common question. He told that indoor plants require ideal conditions in terms of temperature, humidity, and air quality in order to thrive. He went into detail about how HVAC systems are used to regulate temperature and humidity for the benefit of plant growth and health. Also, he mentioned that plants would be healthier if they are exposed to cleaner air thanks to the HVAC system’s filtration of harmful pollutants. In addition, plants benefit from photosynthesis and general growth when they have enough oxygen thanks to good ventilation and air circulation. The connection between climate control and plant development indoors was a fascinating discovery for me. It’s remarkable how technology can help nature thrive, resulting in a healthier indoor environment. I started looking at the plants around me and I couldn’t help but notice how well they were doing thanks to the HVAC system.
