Abstract: A climate control system includes an air evacuation and ventilation system thereof operable to withdraw air from an outflow air duct system and ventilate the withdrawn air to the outside prior to the system treating air withdrawn from an interior space of a building through an inflow air duct system. The air evacuation and ventilation system includes a ventilation duct having a first end in communication with an air outlet junction box and a second end having an opening located outside the building, an exhaust fan, supportably mounted within the junction box, for drawing air out of the outflow air duct system and into the ventilation duct, and a damper, supportably mounted within the junction box and pivotable between a closed position in which the damper prevents air from flowing into the ventilation duct and an open position in which air is drawn into the ventilation duct.
