Properly maintaining your building’s indoor air quality (IAQ) is important to the health, comfort, and safety of your building’s occupants. One key element to air quality is proper filter management.
Building managers of commercial office buildings, schools and universities, and retail centers can take steps to ensure that their facility’s HVAC system is operating at its best to support quality air and adequate ventilation – especially as people are returning to work spaces and indoor events post pandemic and concerned about COVID variants.
What’s In Your Air?
To help improve your building’s indoor air quality, our HVAC technicians will assess the status of your system and inspect for proper filtration of airborne particulates such as dust and pollen, mold, and debris, as well as other contaminants such as volatile organic compounds, pollution particulates, viruses, and bacteria as required.
The air and elements outside of your facility will also impact the quality of the air inside your facility. For example, if your building is located near highways and vehicle pollution or industrial manufacturing facilities that may emit particulates or chemical particles it’s important to be aware of these additional potential air quality challenges.
Testing your facility’s air quality must be done by a professional, qualified HVAC service technician. Our technicians can also guide you through the latest air quality standard recommendations provided by OSHA.
