3 Ways Commercial HVAC Makes the World a Better Place

It’s 2021, and it’s time to focus on all of the good things that make the world a better place. We may be a bit biased, but one thing that is often overlooked is the impact that commercial HVAC has to improve our everyday experiences. Commercial HVAC systems are like the “man behind the curtain.” They are always there, and they are basically running the show, but you never really see or notice them. These HVAC systems deserve a little credit! Day by day, they improve the world, even when we don’t notice.  

Here are 3 ways commercial HVAC makes the world a better place:  

1. Improving indoor air quality keeps building occupants healthy and happy. This has been particularly true during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of our manufacturers  have been working around the clock to provide the best commercial HVAC solutions to improve indoor air quality for people across the world. These solutions include things like NEEDLEPOINT BIPOLAR IONIZATION™ from Global Plasma Solutions, UV-C Technology from Big Ass Fans, and Room Air Purifiers from Price. Not only does improving indoor air quality keep people healthy, but it also keeps people happy. Nobody wants to be in places that have poor air quality. This can lead to allergy symptoms, more sick days through the year, and sheer discomfort.  Happy and healthy people make the world a better place every day.  
   
2. Heating and air conditioning keeps building occupants comfortable. With temperature variability, people can be comfortable to do what they need to do. Whether it be the cooling air in a gym during a workout or the warmth of the heaters while taking a test in school, the HVAC system is working to make sure that your experience is comfortable. This goes along well with the first point of keeping people happy to make the world a better place. Nobody wants to be in a sweltering building or in an office where you need to wear two jackets to stay warm in the winter. Heating and air conditioning make the world a better place by providing comfortability for all building occupants.  
   
3. Increasing the energy efficiency of commercial HVAC systems helps the environment. According to Save on Energy, “When you consume less power, you reduce the amount of toxic fumes released by power plants, conserve the earth’s natural resources and protect ecosystems from destruction. By taking steps to reduce your energy intake, you’ll contribute to a healthier and happier world.” So, when building owners and facility mangers make changes to improve the energy efficiency of their HVAC system, they are helping the environment little by little (and it saves them a little money, which is always a bonus)!  

So, the next time you think about things that make the world a better place, remember that commercial HVAC system in the hospital working to improve the indoor air quality for the patients, the heating system in the elementary school working to keep the students warm in the winter, and the high efficiency HVAC system that was specifically designed by the facility manager to save power to reduce energy consumption.  

These are the everyday things that make the world a better place, and that is why we love commercial HVAC (even though we are a little biased)!
