The indoor climate conditions in foyers, corridors, doctors offices and ancillary rooms in healthcare centers must be tailored to specific functions, taking into account the high visitor frequency and the need for necessity for germ-free air.

Solutions for primary health care centers often include:
• VRF systems for heating and cooling,
• ventilation via recuperators or air conditioning units,
• an automated monitoring and control system.

Hospitals are usually larger and more complex facilities with different departments and units.
Solutions for hospitals may require multiple ventilation and filtration systems and typically include
• ventilation through air conditioning units with recuperators and water exchangers for common areas and hospital rooms,
• induction devices for heating and cooling common areas and hospital rooms,
• chambers for heating, cooling, and ventilating operating rooms, "clean rooms,"
• air-to-water heat pumps for heating and cooling,
• gas boiler, biomass boilers or connection to district heating,
• sanitary hot water preparation system.

Clinics differ in size and breadth of services. They typically provide a wide range of medical services but are often less sophisticated than hospitals.
Clinic solutions, unlike hospitals, may feature centralized ventilation systems and be less demanding in terms of infection control measures to avoid specific infections.

Dental clinics are smaller medical facilities that offer specialty treatments (e.g., dental and ophthalmology offices).
Ventilation systems in offices should be tailored to the nature of exams and activities performed by doctors, while air filtering is a key consideration.
