Indoor Air quality FAQ
As experts in indoor air quality (IAQ), we possess the necessary training and expertise to enhance ventilation and control humidity within your facility, ensuring the purification of the air your employees, customers, and occupants breathe.
What things do you consider when creating an indoor air quality plan?
Cox-Powell is ready to partner with you to assess, create, and deliver the right IAQ plan for your facility. This starts by asking the right questions and using the latest data and recommendations of accredited organizations such as ASHRAE, EPA, and the CDC.
Things will ask:
System Design – Is your building configured and used in the same manner as it was originally designed? Do humidity levels get above 60%?
Equipment Installation – Was your HVAC equipment installed correctly? During assessments, we often find ductwork not sealed properly, outside air dampers closed, and condensate drains not piped correctly.
Maintenance – Are your HVAC systems properly maintained? If not, this can lead to poor IAQ, rising energy and repair costs, and lower efficiency.
Operations – Are system setpoints for heating, cooling, ventilation, humidity, and night setback optimal? Making small adjustments can help with improved comfort and higher efficiency.
Filtration – Are both active and passive filtration being utilized?
What are common contaminants?
Common contaminants include:
- Dust and Mold
- Gases and Smoke
- Outdoor Pollutants
- Foul Odors
Committed to safety
We follow OSHA guidelines to ensure safe work practices, protect personnel, and reduce exposure to hazards.
