Why HVAC Systems Are Essential for Green Building Certification

Green building certification programs, such as LEED, BREEAM, and DGNB, have redefined the benchmarks for sustainability in architecture. These systems emphasize not only energy efficiency but also indoor environmental quality, occupant well-being, and long-term performance. Among the many components of a certified green building, the HVAC system is one of the most critical. It directly […]

How HVAC Systems Impact Indoor Air Quality — And What You Can Do About It

Indoor air quality (IAQ) has become a major concern in modern living, especially as people spend nearly 90% of their time indoors. While many focus on external pollution, studies from the WHO and EPA confirm that indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air. Poor air quality contributes to respiratory […]
