Design Guidance in planning laundries is covered in Health Building Note Number 25 but there have been some further developments in laundry plant, energy conservation and the use of service utilities. This paper is intended to cover those developments, until a revision of that document is completed. These developments will not affect the overall departmental areas provision but will require some adjustments to areas in the various production section and perhaps some minor adjustments to the ancillary accommodation.

The efficiency of facilities available for anaesthetic gas scavenging in East Anglian hospitals has been assessed using infrared spectrophotometry. Simple scavenging systems proved to be very effective and reduced the ambient nitrous oxide levels by a factor of ten. Sources of pollution outside of the influence of a scavenging system were due to damaged breathing systems, leaking ventilators and the anaesthetic technique. High levels could be further aggravated by poor maintenance of air conditioning equipment.
