Ventilation and Air Circulation

Public restrooms require excellent ventilation to maintain air quality and prevent the buildup of odors and moisture. The gap under stall doors creates a natural airflow pattern that helps exhaust fans work more efficiently. Air can circulate freely throughout the space, preventing stagnant pockets and ensuring that ventilation systems can effectively remove unpleasant odors and excess humidity.

 

This improved air circulation also helps prevent the growth of mold and mildew, which thrive in poorly ventilated, humid environments. The constant airflow created by the door gaps contributes to a healthier, more pleasant restroom environment for all users.
