Reply to comment by TucsonTacos in ELI5 Why are airport ceiling so high? by TrShry

I'm used to the heat being increased an hour or two before opening, and lowered significantly during the empty hours. But if there is no heating at all then they can't even get a little warm until you have a lot of human traffic.

I mean that’s how the mall works. I’m not an engineer nor did I build it.

You’re just speculating that it ‘probably’ sucks because you ‘feel’ it must work like you think it does. I can’t explain why it does or doesn’t, but there’s no possible way when the mall opens it is -20 inside and they just pray enough people stay and shop in full winter gear until it warms up and they can take their coats off.

They’d never get enough people. Nobody would stay.
