VentCare Air Quality Improvement
Following many years of success with our popular AirCare offering, we have recently introduced VentCare – a suite of air quality improvement services specifically designed around the requirement for ventilation in working areas.
The importance of ventilation has been highlighted and reinforced following the recent global pandemic and Salix have responded with services to assist our clients in maximising the quality of the air in their working environments.
Services offered under our VentCare banner:
Free Ventilation Survey
To assist you in your responsibility to provide a safe and clean working environment, Salix has developed a FREE Ventilation validation survey, VentCare. We can analyse your current ventilation equipment and make recommendations for any changes that you may need to consider for air quality improvement.
Ventilation is often confused with air conditioning. Ventilation is the actual cycle of stale air being replaced by fresh air from outside the building, as opposed to air conditioning or heating which simply cools and/or heats the air within a building. It is perhaps alarming to realise that a lot of offices do not comply with basic ventilation requirements, which puts these environments in the category of a toxic environment, in some cases worse than a badly polluted city centre.
There are various requirements set out by REHVA (the Federation of European Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning Associations) and will vary based on the type of space, as well as the type of building – i.e. many modern ‘sealed’ buildings will have a much higher ventilation requirement.
Recent advice released by REHVA indicates that increased ventilation will have a positive effect on reducing the spread of any germs or virus
UV-C Air Sanitisation Technology
One of the only proven long-term air sanitisation and disinfection solutions to make HVAC systems safe and minimise the circulation of germs is to install Ultra-Violet (UV-C) technology in conjunction with the ventilation ductwork of air conditioning systems.
UV-C air sanitisation technology can be retrofitted to your existing air conditioning or ventilation system in most cases and provides effective and long-term protection against air borne viruses, bacteria, and mould.
A key air quality improvement weapon, this air sanitiser technology is completely safe for building occupants and works 24/7 with only minor annual maintenance required. Since it keeps biological fouling (mould) build-up to a minimum, it also helps to keep your HVAC systems working effectively, extending their useful life and reducing operating and energy costs.
