The comfort of rooms occupants does not only consist in maintaining the appropriate temperature and relative
humidity. In rooms intended for people, it is also extremely important to maintain quality parameters that affect the
safe and effective functioning of the human body. In recent years, the most common additional parameter monitored
in human occupied spaces has been CO2 concentration. This is especially true of DCV systems which are currently
getting more and more popular in Poland, which constantly adjust their performance to the current needs of rooms. This article presents a method for determining anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions and summarizes the minimum ventilation air volumes required to maintain the indoor environment classes referred to in the PN-EN
16798-1: 2019-06 standard [1]. This is a key issue at the stage of designing the ventilation system as it may determine its final performance.
