Indoor air quality monitoring for your business

Understand and optimise the air in your business with devices that report on harmful air pollutants, temperature and humidity.

Public interest in clean air is growing. 79% of people now consider the presence or absence of clean air as an important factor when deciding to visit an indoor space. Consequently, air hygiene is becoming a global priority as businesses harness the power of good indoor air to provide comfort, aid health and safety, boost productivity and enhance customer/user experiences. 

Indoor air quality monitoring (IAQM) can be achieved via devices that can help you understand and optimise the air in your setting. The first step is to gather data that shows you which intervention measures are needed in different spaces. To make this possible, indoor air quality monitors report on levels of inorganic gases (CO2), VOCs, particulate matter, airborne chemicals, air pressure, temperature, and humidity. With this insight, it’s easier to identify any issues and target where action is needed.

 

 Benefits of IAQM

By analysing causes and trends, indoor air quality monitoring devices can help you implement better management practices (eg cleaning, ventilation, and temperature control) to reduce the effects of poor indoor air. With more control, these measures can help you:

  • protect people in your business – knowing the level of contaminants in the air can help you take action to reduce health risks caused by air pollutants
  • act with insight – reviewing air quality data shows trends and results of actions and helps you identify the causes of problems such as sickness and absenteeism
  • reduce energy costs – monitoring indoor air can help you optimise heating and ventilation to reduce unnecessary energy losses
  • boost productivity – pollutants, especially CO2, affect cognitive performance. Air monitoring can allow more efficient control of ventilation to keep CO2 and other pollutants low
  • create hospitable environments – better control of temperature, humidity, and other pollutants improve levels of comfort and wellbeing

Reduce health risks caused by airborne pollutants with informed safety measures to protect people in your business.

Boost cognitive performance and productivity by monitoring CO2 levels and increasing ventilation accordingly.

Optimise your buildings by reducing energy consumption to help achieve ESG and sustainability targets.

Better indoor air in action

Frydenbø Group – an industry leader in commercial real estate in Norway – were looking into solutions to cut energy losses and costs across their properties. With an ambitious target of reducing energy consumption by 20%, the business worked with Initial’s partner solution – the world’s only battery-powered, RESET-accredited connected monitor – to improve the air in their buildings. The devices had huge success with a 16% improved energy efficiency already evidenced and predictions that they will exceed their overall target soon. Frydenbø Group now benefits from better air hygiene for all people in their business, clear insight into their air quality and remote access to all data.
