Tag: Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)

Several recently released products aimed at improving indoor air quality are highlighted.

Cognitive functions in crisis are markedly better for people who work in facilities with low levels of indoor pollutants and carbon dioxide.

Ensuring that facility air is filtered properly is largely dependent on the cleaning and maintenance of HVAC units.

Delos®, Mayo Clinic collaborate on first ever, human-centered research center dedicated to creating healthier indoor spaces.

Consider the benefits of: heat pumps with auxiliary heat; zoned duct systems; zoned mini-splits; and straight cools.

In the pursuit of sustainability, IAQ often becomes an afterthought.

HVAC systems and room air currents significantly impact transmission of airborne illness.

This article features four products that cover HVAC innovations.

Process Cleaning for Healthy Schools (PC4HS) is providing guidance on handling potential PCB-containing dust in academic environments.

Forty years ago, the United States Congress authorized the establishment of the National Institute of Building Sciences when President Gerald Ford signed the Housing and Community Development Act into law on August 22, 1974.

There are thousands of different VOCs and they have two things in common—they contain carbon, and they evaporate quickly.

For facilities that handle hazardous items, indoor air quality and comfort are challenges.

Cleaning policies are paramount, but other aspects impact the health quotient of a facility.

The health and comfort of students and teachers are among the many factors that contribute to learning and productivity in the classroom, and although every effort is made to achieve good indoor air quality (“IAQ”), studies show that more than half of our nation's schools have problems aligned with poor IAQ.

For HVAC systems, moving from pneumatic to digital streamlines operations and maintenance.

Addressing complaints and suspected problems calls for a targeted inspection.

When it comes to coating different areas, whether inside or surrounding a commercial building, one coating does NOT fit all—and it's not even close.

From trash areas and restrooms to carpet and upholstery, an effective and comprehensive odor management strategy is an all encompassing effort.

Suitable for a variety of odor abatement situations, this product line is engineered from a proprietary blend of natural ingredients that includes water, lime, pine needles, aniseed, clove, and cedarwood.

Instead of hiring an abatement contractor to come in and remove asbestos, many facilities choose to manage it in an attempt to avoid exposure and save money.
