In today’s world, health and well-being are more important than ever. However, high humidity and poor HVAC and ventilation systems can make breathing difficult and compromise indoor air quality (IAQ). At Walton & Company, we focus on advanced solutions to enhance IAQ and ensure the air we breathe is as clean as possible.
The IAQ Imperative
Indoor Air Quality is about more than comfort—it’s about health. Poor IAQ can lead to allergies, respiratory problems, and other serious health issues. Achieving and maintaining high IAQ is essential. The pandemic has highlighted the need for better IAQ standards in buildings. To reduce virus transmission, mechanical contractors are implementing advanced filtration systems like HEPA filters and optimizing ventilation for a higher air exchange rate. Our Building Services Department, managed by Bill Vervaeke, evaluates and upgrades spaces to meet these needs.
Technological Advancements
Modern HVAC systems equipped with air quality sensors are becoming more common. These sensors monitor humidity, temperature, and pollutants, adjusting ventilation and filtration levels in real-time to maintain a healthier indoor environment. Our Building Automation Department, managed by Gary Figdore, enhances building control systems to maximize air quality automatically.
Advanced filtration methods trap particles, allergens, and pathogens, making the air cleaner and safer. Optimizing ventilation systems ensures a steady supply of fresh outdoor air while expelling stale indoor air. We recommend the Remo Halo system, which reduces odors, pollutants, and contaminants.
Long-Term Sustainability
Sustainability drives IAQ initiatives beyond the pandemic. Green building practices and energy-efficient systems contribute to superior IAQ and a reduced carbon footprint.
At Walton & Company, we employ innovative technologies and sustainable practices to create healthier indoor environments. Improved IAQ enhances overall quality of life, setting the standard for a brighter, cleaner future. Prioritizing IAQ allows us to breathe easier and safer, knowing our well-being is in capable hands.
