What are the benefits of natural ventilation in buildings?

Natural ventilation in buildings provides substantial benefits by enhancing indoor air quality, reducing energy consumption, and promoting occupants’ health and comfort, all while supporting environmental sustainability. By allowing fresh air to flow through operable windows, skylights, and vents, this approach minimises the reliance on mechanical systems, yielding significant cost savings and a greener carbon footprint. Moreover, spaces naturally ventilated with ample natural light can lead to improved productivity and well-being among occupants, as they enjoy a healthier and more pleasant atmosphere.
