Many of us spend most of our time living and working inside buildings. The quality of indoor air we breathe impacts our well-being. Indoor pollutants can be invisible to our senses, yet harmful to our health and productivity. Meanwhile, airborne health risks have risen to the top of our air quality concerns, ever since the Center of Decease Control declared that transmission of coronavirus occurs much more commonly through respiratory droplets than through objects and surfaces.1
Finding out begins with an IAQ Assessment. Our fact-based, comprehensive review of your building results in a straightforward report of conditions and, if needed, recommendations on how to improve the building’s air quality to meet the latest industry guidelines. We can also help you implement the changes, provide ongoing IAQ monitoring, and help you share results with the most important stakeholders: the people inside your building.
Many strategies can be used to improve indoor air quality and mitigate negative effects. Trane, based on ASHRAE® and REHVA® guidelines, recommends a four-pillar approach covering the following key areas:
Using proper ventilation to ensure that plenty of fresh, outdoor air comes into the building to dilute the buildup of contaminants.
Getting exhaust air out efficiently is equally important.
Maintaining indoor humidity levels within the ASHRAE®-recommended ranges maximizes the comfort of building occupants and removing contaminants at their source.
Referring to the HVAC systems ability to reduce particles, odors, or microorganisms, such as mold, bacteria and certain viruses.
Trane has been a leader in IAQ solutions for decades. How do we maintain our lead? Through a world-class equipment and controls portfolio, strong technical acumen—and our systemic approach improving indoor air quality in commercial buildings.
