The Indoor Air Quality Crisis

The air inside your building
may be more dangerous than the air outside.

Most facility managers never think about what their occupants are breathing. The research says they should.

Increased Illness & Absenteeism

Poor indoor air quality drives higher rates of respiratory illness, allergies, and infection. In schools, this means lost attendance funding. In offices and facilities, it means lost productivity — every single day.

HVAC Damage & Costly Repairs

Dirty, clogged, or under-spec filters allow particulates to coat coils, fans, and drain pans. A 30% increase in static pressure across a fouled coil adds $200+ per 10,000 CFM in annual energy costs alone — before repair bills.

Hidden Contaminants You Can't See

Bacteria, viruses, VOCs, mold spores, and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) are invisible to the naked eye. Without MERV 13+ filtration, these contaminants circulate freely through every occupied space in your building.

Compliance & Liability Risk

ASHRAE Standard 62.1 requires minimum MERV 8 filtration for commercial buildings. NAFA best practices call for MERV 13. Facilities that fall short face regulatory exposure — and in healthcare and education, the stakes are especially high.

Some of your occupants can't afford bad air.

Children breathe faster than adults — pound for pound, they inhale more air, and more of whatever's in it. The elderly often have compromised respiratory systems. Healthcare patients may be immunocompromised. These are the people inside your building every day.

Research from the EU-funded GERIE project confirmed that poor indoor air quality causes measurable negative health outcomes in retirement communities. Studies consistently show that MERV 13 filtration in classrooms improves student performance, attendance, and long-term health outcomes.

Clean air is not a luxury. It is a baseline expectation for anyone who walks through your doors.
