What does it cost to fix schools?

The Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Tools for Schools Program advocates for proactive measures, and the majority of the recommendations in the IAQ Tools for Schools Action Kit are either low cost or no cost. These low- and no-cost actions will help to minimize the extent and frequency of costly repairs. Following the IAQ Tools for Schools guidance will enable schools to correct existing problems and prevent future problems from occurring. However, some problems will require significant expenditures (e.g., replacing a leaking roof, updating the HVAC system to achieve adequate ventilation or remediating a mold problem).
