Air quality and HVAC systems have been overlooked for a long time.

We are now paying the price.

Whether you deal with an old school or a brand-new office building, integrating fresh air into their spaces is essential.
Any building where people congregate should have ventilation levels measured.

Improving ventilation with fresh air:

HVAC ductwork can be configured to increase the rate of fresh air exchange and reduce recirculation.
Adjusting your HVAC system to run overnight and or on weekends can increase fresh air replacement and
minimize airflow speeds.
Ensure HVAC equipment is regularly maintained to run at top efficiency.

Upgrade HVAC hardware for rigid systems:

Replacing fixed-speed motors with variable-speed can enhance airflow control.
Integrate a control system that is sensitive to air pressure and can make adjustments as needed automatically.

Increasing filtration

Ventilation of recirculated air will not reduce the risk of COVID-19 unless air goes through a filter designed to
remove tiny particles.

A MERV-13 rated filter or higher can be effective in capturing a minimum of 90% of particles.
HEPA filters capture at least 99.97% of even smaller particles.
