Indoor Air Quality
Prioritizing indoor air quality is important for businesses, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic or the time of year when airborne illnesses are more prominent. Typically, indoor air is 2 to 5 times worse than outdoor air. If air is not purified, it can cause the spread of diseases. At Metropolitan Mechanical Contractors we can help your business improve its indoor air quality by installing air purification technology and properly maintaining your equipment. We also provide additional services and equipment such as sneeze guards, hand washing stations and automatic flush valves to help limit the spread of diseases throughout your facility.
Services & Technology to Improve Indoor Air Quality
Airborne Disease Preparedness
As a mechanical contractor, we worry about all of your building’s systems, from the toilet to the HVAC system. We can install hands free faucets, automatic flush valves for bathrooms, sneeze guards and temporary hand washing stations. All designed to limit the spreading of germs and the number of people handling the same devices throughout the day.
UV Lighting
MMC installs UV lighting to help sterilize HVAC systems. Viruses that are airborne can be safeguarded against with high doses of UVC in the air stream. For the most effective microbial control, Steril-Aire UV germicidal Emitters are installed on the supply side of the system, downstream from the cooling coil and above the drain pan. This location provides more effective biofilm and microbial control than in-duct UVC installations. MMC offers this technology to customers if it is the most cost-effective way to improve indoor air quality.
UV lights offer many benefits including improved airflow, improved indoor air quality and better energy efficiency. UV lights prevent the buildup of contaminants which allows better airflow leading to a reduction in maintenance costs and helping to extend the life of your equipment.
Bipolar Ionization
At MMC, we install bi-polar ionization systems in commercial and industrial facilities. This technology emits ions that attach to harmful substances such as airborne mold, viruses, bacteria, volatile organic compounds, and allergens and deactivates them. This technology will combat substances in the air and on surfaces and tends to be an affordable option for large spaces, office buildings, hospitals, schools and more.
Bi-polar ionization replicates the same positive and negative ions found abundantly in nature, so it is harmless to the human body and pets. It can be effective at combating COVID-19 inside buildings and it enhances indoor air quality while consuming a miniscule amount of electricity.
HVAC Maintenance
Taking care of your HVAC systems can help to improve air quality. At MMC, we can perform coil cleaning and filter changes to keep your systems running efficiently and purify your air. We offer flexible HVAC maintenance programs and service agreements.
Prepare Your Facility to Combat the Spread of Disease
Metro Mech can help you prepare for and combat harmful substances in the air by installing air purification technology. We install UV lighting and bi-polar ionization technology as well as provide the small changes that can help eliminate the spread of germs within your facility. In addition, we also can service and maintain your equipment to keep it running properly. If you need filter changes or coil cleaning, the team at MMC can get the job done.
The health and safety of you and your building occupants is important to us which is why we provide only the best technologies when it comes to improving indoor air quality. If you are interested in learning more about our indoor air quality services, contact us today.
