After installing commercial indoor air quality solutions, it’s important to maintain the equipment regularly and keep it in good repair. Benefits of equipment upkeep include:

• • • Maintain a healthy indoor IAQ
    • Promote worker health and productivity
    • Reduced repair costs by finding and fixing small problems before they turn into expensive repairs
    • Maintain the warranty on newer equipment
    • Reduce unnecessary wear and tear on equipment and promote its longevity
    • Maintain the efficiency of the systems and save on energy
    • Reduce odors related poor IAQ

If your building has IAQ problems, you might notice its occupants feel ill with flu- or allergy-like symptoms while inside. The symptoms then go away shortly after leaving the building. If this occurs, call the air quality specialist at Pace Heating & Plumbing to evaluate the air quality and find the source of the problem.

Commercial Indoor Air Quality Components

• • • • Humidity control equipment: Humidifiers help reduce the spread of germs, make arid conditions feel more comfortable, and protect equipment and office supplies from becoming brittle. Dehumidifiers remove excess moisture from the air and help prevent the growth of mold.
      • Air filters: High-efficiency air filters improve IAQ by trapping airborne particulates that are as small as 1.0 microns.
      • Ventilation equipment: Ventilation systems replace indoor air with fresh outdoor air, which helps control the exposure to contaminants—including gases—that are airborne. They also assist with maintaining temperatures and relative humidity levels. Commercial systems may be designed to move a certain amount of air at a specific speed.
      • Monitoring equipment: Air monitoring instruments gauge temperatures, humidity levels, airborne particles, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide levels, and outdoor air calculations. They help ensure occupant comfort and a healthy IAQ.
