A method of pressurizing an elevator includes pressurizing a lobby to a pressure different from ambient pressure at the elevation of the lobby. Pressurizing the lobby can generally include pressurizing the lobby to a pressure between the ambient pressure at the elevation of the lobby and an ambient pressure at a destination elevation. This can allow for at least some equalization of the inner ears of passengers to take place while passengers are waiting to pass from the lobby into the elevator cab, or waiting to pass from the lobby into the ambient pressure of the building outside the lobby. |
