why don’t we install air conditioners in classrooms when the temperature is high? a staff member of the logistics service center of the qingyang district education bureau said,according to the national design specifications for primary and secondary schools, there are currently no regulations requiring primary and secondary school classrooms to be equipped with air conditioners during construction. in addition, due to the power load of school lines and other factors, many school classrooms do not have reserved dedicated air-conditioning lines. therefore, there is no way to uniformly implement the installation of air-conditioning equipment in ordinary classrooms in all schools in the district.

the above-mentioned staff member said that the education bureau has also been actively striving in recent years, hoping to obtain a special project to start the installation of air conditioners throughout the district, but there has been no result so far.
