WHAT IS MONITORED WITH IAQ SAFE?
IAQ Metrics
There are five main metrics to determine Indoor air quality.
CO2
High CO2 levels often indicate poor ventilation within building spaces, poor ventilation is what airborne viruses such as Covid-19 thrive on.
Improve your ventilation today to reduce CO2 levels and the threat of Covid-19 alike.
It has been scientifically proven that exposure to CO2 will have adverse effects on occupants of buildings.
People will suffer from headaches, lose concentration and can even become unconscious if very high levels of CO2 are inhaled.
Volatile Organic Compounds
Volatile Organic Compounds are found throughout indoor spaces within buildings. They are common gases that are given off during the use of everyday cleaning products, air fresheners and pesticides.
They are considered harmful to humans in specific quantities and cause issues such as skin irritation, headaches, and loss of concentration and even liver and kidney damage.
Particulate Matter
PM2.5 and PM10 are the most common particulate matter metrics used for IAQ. They refer to inhalable and fine inhalable particles found in droplets of air.
They can be dirt, dust, soot or smoke and are often invisible to the naked eye. The issue with PM2.5 and PM10 is they are inhaled by humans and can cause serious health problems if exposure is long term.
Ambient Temperature
This is far more about building occupants comfort levels whilst within a buildings space, however it can also lead to health problems if exposure to high or low limits is abused by users or employers.
Ambient Temperature indoors should be between 15°C and 35°C.
Humidity
Correct levels of humidity are imperative within indoor spaces. Extremes of high or low humidity will cause adverse effects to many users of an indoor space.
High humidity can cause asthma, allergies, dust mites and bacteria such as mould spores.
Low humidity causes the same issues along with spreading viruses more easily and respiratory failure. Indoor humidity should be between 40% - 60% RH.
HOW DOES THE TECHNOLOGY WORK?
Below is a simple diagram showing how the remote sensor network connects together with the LoRaWAN network. Sensors send data to the gateway(s) on site. The gateway then sends on that data via the cloud to our User Dashboards, within our bespoke customer data portal.
THE IAQ INDEX
Why INdoor Air Quality Matters!
Meet ASHRAE
Ventilation Standards
Are you meeting ASHRAE standard 62.1?
The recognised standard of acceptable IAQ (Indoor Air Quality) and ventilation design, ensuring the minimum ventilation rates are maintained to aide in the reduction of adverse health effects for building occupants.
ASHRAE states that occupied spaces should not show levels of CO2 above 800 PPM in order to demonstrate good ventilation.
Increase
Building Efficiency
Higher rated air filters can aide in reducing the maintenance cost of expensive HVAC systems.
By filtering more particles from the air, the life span of the HVAC system and its components can be increased.
In the fight against spreading airborne viruses such as COVID-19 and Influenza. It is recommended to use MERV-13 Filters within building ventilation systems.
Improve
Occupant Well-being
Are you complying with the European Standard for ventilation EN13779?
Improve the
4 metrics of IAQ:
Temperature & Humidity, Ventilation, Air Filtration and Air Distribution within a building environment.
Do what you can to improve occupant well-being.
Increase resident happiness and boost staff productivity.
Reduce
Risk of COVID-19
Recent Studies have demonstrated how poor building ventilation can increase the spread of
COVID-19.
It is very hard to determine Air Quality without monitoring element such as CO2 and VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).
High CO2 levels often indicate poor ventilation.
Monitor CO2 and combat the spread of COVID-19.
IAQ SAFE IS READY TO HELP ACROSS ANY INDUSTRY
Seen until now as “a nice to have” but not critical to own, is fast becoming an outdated view of IAQ. See below how IAQ is vital for many industries and how it benefits those who are adopting new ways of maintaining healthy and happy building environments for their staff and end users alike.
Office & Building Managers
Ensure staffs comfort, wellbeing and health whilst meeting better sustainability metrics and improving staff satisfaction and reducing absenteeism.
Facilities and BMS Specialists
Easily add new H+S standards to your building’s architecture without expensive additional BMS installations. Enabling a hybrid methodology within your existing building infrastructure with little or no system downtime.
Medical and healthcare Professionals
Education and Fitness Providers
Improve your users cognitive process by providing a clean and healthy indoor environment for all building occupants. Reducing staff unhappiness and boosting productivity.
