Challenge: Airborne contaminants such as dust, pollen, and bacteria can circulate in industrial settings, posing respiratory risks to occupants. As stated earlier, missed work days and increased usage of insurance benefits, along with out-of-pocket costs for your employees, are major results of contaminants in the building’s air.

For industrial spaces, electrostatic filters or activated carbon filters are effective in capturing a broad range of pollutants. Our experts assist in selecting and installing the right filtration system. As they work with all brands and models, our HVAC pros can help you choose the right system for your needs, as well as look for financial incentives and programs to help defray upfront costs.
