Indoor air quality is essential to improving the comfort and health of your employees. There are various ways of improving your office’s air quality. Here are a few ways to keep your staff healthy by improving the air they breathe in your Wake Forest, NC office.
Improve Ventilation
Opening windows and doors will allow natural air to flow in the office to improve the ventilation. Natural ventilation helps to improve the indoor air quality by reducing pollutants and bad odors present in the office. Other ways of increasing natural ventilation include window shading, such as closing blinds.
Use of Air Purifiers
Air purifiers help to clean the air by removing air pollutants present in the indoor air. Activated charcoal can filter toxic gasses and chemicals. Air purifiers with HEPA filters help to eliminate contaminants and improve the quality of the indoor air in the office.
Replace Air Filters
Dirt, dust and other pollutants trigger allergies, asthma attacks and other respiratory illnesses that may affect the health and productivity of employees. Air filters help to trap these contaminants and improve the quality of your indoor air. You will need to replace your air filters regularly to improve their efficiency and prevent clogging.
Scheduling Repairs and Maintenance
Faulty HVAC systems lower the quality of your indoor air due to decreased efficiency. Effects of poor air quality in the office include frequent headaches, fatigue, sinus congestion, allergy flare-ups and shortness of breath. Keeping up with annual maintenance visits will ensure that your systems are working efficiently in improving the quality of your indoor air.
