With COP26 behind us, the words ‘Net Zero’ still hangs heavy in the air as we look to make the most of the momentum gained by the summit. On the face of it, it’s a daunting task. However, like so many challenges in life, it becomes considerably more manageable when broken down into smaller steps. It’s now a widely accepted fact that lighting, heating, and cooling operating emissions account for a significant proportion (28%) of all carbon emissions emitted by building an...

Pure Air Control Services headed into the summer months this year, the Delta variant of the coronavirus became dominant. Before this, businesses started reopening with many workers returning to buildings. However, many also decided that working from home was a safer option. Not everyone had a choice and a surprising number of workers stated they would prefer to leave their jobs entirely if working from home was not an option for them. In fact, in a post published in July, Pure Air Control Ser...

Decarbonizing heat is one of, if not the biggest challenges we face in our journey to net zero. Most of the heat in UK homes and businesses is currently provided through fossil fuels, predominantly gas. Gas releases carbon emissions and other particles that are bad for air quality and bad for our environment. So, to get to net-zero we need to replace gas as our main source of heat. The Government plans to phase out gas boilers in newly build homes from 2025, but with the vast majority of exist...

The beauty of an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) – and the energy recovery wheel inside of it – is its ability to allow to create an HVAC system that’s 20 to 40% more efficient than one without an ERV. But, what if a specific type of wheel could save even more money over the course of its life, due to how it’s made? While often not examined out of the gate, considering which type of wheel to use in the system can have a significant, tangible impact on cost and perform...

Like never before, facility operators are working to improve the quality of the air in their buildings. While ventilation – or air changes per hour inside a building – plays a critical role in this effort, it’s often thought that increased ventilation is too costly. Luckily, that’s not true. In fact, one can simultaneously ventilate the building, reduce the energy costs, and future-proof the building for unforeseen pandemics. How? By incorporating energy recovery venti...

The pandemic and shift to home dining and takeout changed the recipe for the food supply chain. Here’s how food companies are devouring new challenges. As more food travels directly to consumers rather than moving on pallets from distribution centers to stores, maintaining the cold chain becomes more complicated and challenging. Restrictions "One reason is a shortage of technicians who have earned the necessary certifications in these systems," says Dana Krug, Vice President and Gen...

Purchasing a ne...

Here’s the deal: No matter the product, no matter its reliability, at some point in time it’s going to need to be replaced. And the same goes for energy recovery wheels even the most reliable in the HVAC system. Debris can damage wheels, they’re often not maintained properly, and ultimately they simply reach their max lifespan. Again, this is the case for everything in the world but when it comes to the energy recovery wheel, users need to be aware. Why? Because if users use t...
