General inmates can access air-conditioning in buildings designated for chapel, programs, classification, medical and administration. There is also a gym.

As an aside, the new institutions are designed with air-conditioning, but many current FDOC facilities were constructed prior to air-conditioning being commonplace and were instead designed to facilitate airflow to provide natural cooling within them. Housing units with air-conditioning make up approximately 24 percent of FDC’s housing units (dorms).
