Clean air should be a human right
Clean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutions
Simply put - We need clean air - clean water and food safe to eat
Air to breathe without risk to health
Air to prepare food free from airborne contamination
Food ingredients and water protected from sources of contamination
Environmental controls are necessary in commercial food and beverage preparation areas

Building Energy Efficiency with Indoor Air Quality
Typically 50% of Energy use in Large Buildings is in the HVAC systems
Urban air quality is typically above WHO annual warning levels for PM2.5 and NO2.

Air as a vector of cross contamination concerns base factors
Care needs to be taken at a base level to avoid risk and ensure an effective solution
Clean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutionsClean air solutions
1. Clean air that can be inhaled without risk to health. LOW - PM2.5 LOW - NOx LOW - O3 LOW – SOx Use Air filters recommended by EN13779:2007 and tested to EN779:2012 class F7 to F9
2. Temperature 20-22 deg.C. Comfortable for purpose
3. Relative Humidity should be within 45% to 55%
4. Ventilation rate sufficient to dilute CO2 and maintain O2
5. Check building envelope has low leakage
6. Check HVAC plant is fit for purpose, well maintained. Suitable controls and control strategy.
Indoor Air Quality from the HVAC AHU system
Note: for environmental control lighting and noise levels are also important

Effective Air Filtration can reduce risk of cross contamination
Issues that need to be addressed for optimised air filter selection and use.
1. Are the AHU air filter mountings fit for purpose to minimise air bypass and adequately engineered ? Ref: BS EN 1886:2007
2. Is the filter position in the system correct to deliver clean air and protect system efficiency. Have a system survey if you are not sure. Ref: OAS
3. Choose correct Filter media and type to deliver consistent life performance at required particulate efficiency with minimum use of energy, servicing and other related costs. Ref: BS EN1822:2009 BS EN779:2012 BS EN13779:2007 LCC
4. Select Air Filter configuration for (Bag, Compact) for safe stable performance with minimum stages and include gas phase filtration with particulate filtration when required.

Conclusions: airborne virus and bacteria can be tested for and recovered from HVAC air filters in both supply and extract systems
How can we find out if airborne bacteria and virus are present ?

Airtight building envelope testing is becoming a requirement for many new-build projects
BSRIA Air Tightness for compliance to Part L1 and L2 building regulations. Member of ATTMA, the appointed air pressure testing organisation for the BINDT
Once the air tightness of a building envelope is known it is possible to assess the required air change rates to give adequate ventilation.
Carbon dioxide reduction along with other internal background gas phase pollutants can be achieved.

These steady state reductions can be improved by use of demand led controls and time clocking
Maximum AHU system energy conservation comes from a dual strategy of optimising static components then use of an inverter speed control on fan motor
