70% to passWhat type of HVAC system is ideally designed to serve a large public space?
AA dual duct system
BA terminal reheat system
CA variable air volume system
DA single zone system
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) A variable air volume system. A variable air volume (VAV) system is ideally designed to serve a large public space. VAV systems can efficiently provide heating and cooling to large, open areas by varying the volume of air delivered to different zones based on the cooling or heating load in that zone. This allows the system to match the air delivery to the actual demand, which is more energy-efficient compared to a single zone system that would over-condition some areas. The other options, such as dual duct and terminal reheat systems, are better suited for more complex, multi-zone buildings rather than a large, open public space.
