Importance of Indoor Air Purification
As we can see, our buildings are designed to shut out fresh outside air. As a result, the air inside become stagnant and polluted with a mixture of bacteria, viruses, dust mites, smoke, mold cooking grease, paint fumes, textile and a lot more pollutants. This was proven by the recent EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) studies, in which they found out that indoor air quality is more than hazardous than outdoor air from 2 to 10 times. It’s no wonder, why 90% of sickness in caught in secluded places. Most people who works in an offices, bars, hotels, restaurants, etc. usually experience headaches, fatigue, stuffiness, sinus problems, colds, flu, dizziness and other related problem that brings them on some type of medication. Most often than not, indoor air that circulates around a secluded area is pollutant, theirs is no enough clean fresh air and stagnant inside air becomes a breeding ground for germs, bacteria and viruses.
Oxygen : The oxygen content in the air was about 38% two hundred years ago. Today, it is only about 19%, and lower than 10% in some urban areas with high pollution. Lack of oxygen contributes to a host of medical and physical conditions like aching muscles, headaches, feelings of irritation and depression, low energy, foggy thinking, as well as infection and diseases.
One way to fight this is with Indoor Air Purifiers which purifies, energizes and revitalizes the air and that is what Eco Smart offers, an effective yet affordable Indoor Air Purifier products.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Concerns
- Most people spend more than 90% of their time indoors.
- Many air pollutants concentrations tend to be higher indoors than outdoors.
- New air-tight energy-efficient houses lock up pollutants inside.
- We inhale dust, chemical pollutants, mold, mildew, bacteria, viruses, tobacco smoke, grease, pollen, dirt, asbestos, lead and more as long as we live.
- To cure respiratory illnesses like asthma and allergies, billions of dollars are annually spent.
- Viruses and bacteria that thrive in the ducts, coils, and recesses of building ventilation systems have been proven to cause ailments ranging from influenza to tuberculosis.
- Some HVAC systems have been found to contain up to 27 species of fungi.
- 40% of all buildings pose a serious health hazard due to indoor air pollution
- Due to poor indoor air quality American business loss an 18% annual production, EPA estimates.
- 20% of all employees have a major illness related to indoor air pollution such as allergies, asthma, auto-immune diseases, etc.
- EPA says high levels of formaldehyde cause cancer
- Scientists now identify that pollutants, even at tolerable concentration when mixed together in an indoor environment have a synergistic effect.
- Poor air quality can contribute to more frequent and severe asthma episodes. Indoor air quality is in the top three concerns of consumers who are building /remodeling a home.
Factors Effecting Indoor Air Quality
Factor | Source of Airborne Pollutants | Health effects and damages |
Microbial Matter | Stagnant water in HVAC system, wet and damp material, humidifiers, condensate drain pans, organic dust build-up | Potential to cause serious health effects such as infections, pneumonia, and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. |
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) | Released into the air from synthetic and composite materials; other sources include aerosol sprays, paints, cleaning chemicals, | Can cause central nervous system depression, headaches, eye/skin irritation, fatigue, sinus problems, dizziness, cancer |
Formaldehyde | Unsealed plywood or particleboard, urea formaldehyde foam insulation, fabrics, glues, carpets, furnishings, carbonless copy paper, | Symptoms include headaches, eye/ skin irritation, fatigue, respiratory problems, memory loss, depression, cancer |
Carbon Monoxide | Auto exhaust, combustion, tobacco smoke | Symptoms can include headaches, nausea, fatigue, flu-like symptoms. |
Carbon Monoxide | Auto exhaust, combustion, tobacco smoke | Symptoms can include headaches, nausea, fatigue, flu-like symptoms. |
Hydrocarbons | Wood stoves, fireplaces, tobacco smoke | Health problems include headaches, fatigue, nausea, dizziness, breathing difficulty, cancer |
Particulates | Smoke, dust, pollen, fungal spores, synthetic fibers, natural fibers, water residue, paper | Can cause allergic reactions, dry eyes, nose and throat problems, skin irritation, and coughing, sneezing, respiratory difficulties. |
Three Indoor Air worst mixtures:
- Air conditioners and heating ducts reduce / diminish the air of ions. As a result the only source of “fresh” air in many homes and offices is not fresh at all.
- Computer monitors are positively charged. Yet many people work at a computer in an air conditioned office every day, the worse combination possible.
- When the air seems smelly tendency is that we use air fresheners / aerosol sprays that may contain chemicals that may irritate eye, nose, throat, burn skin, damage to lever, kidney, brain that may lead to cancer. They also hinders your natural sense of smell that serious household moulds problems are left undetected causing more indoor air problems.

Problem :
The Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) is spreading for homes and industries at an alarming rate. As more retail outlets, schools, homes, offices, factories and other large buildings are made more efficient energy , dust, molds, cleaning chemicals, , bacteria, molds, airborne contaminants and other health and safety risks are closed up inside. The influence is not good. It increases the absenteeism, low in production, unable to concentrate and polluted air inside is making the people sick at work or homes.
Solution :
We can test for a wide variety of indoor air pollutants, from gases-to-particulates. Our final report details findings and makes practical recommendations for improving your IAQ. Often times a trained inspector can identify common problem areas without the need of additional lab testing. Eco Smart offers an indoor air quality testing service that gives you peace of mind, knowing you are providing a safe and healthy working environment for your people.
Different kinds of indoor air problems derive mainly from a lack of regulations and maintenance, and partly from poor planning. Ventilation systems are often the biggest culprit in poor indoor air quality. . Air inlets polluted by organic waste may become colonies of microbiological compounds which spread with the ventilation system throughout the whole building. Make it a priority to inspect the ductwork and clean it regularly for your Indoor Air Quality.
If your HVAC has been operating for some time without attention, it could be circulating odors, dust and other contaminates. The regulations affecting ventilation systems have been drawn up to cater for fire safety, and thus they seldom relate to incoming air ducts. On the other hand, the dust and grease that accumulate in the exhaust air ducts of buildings have been regarded as a fire risk, and their cleaning is therefore officially regulated. Eco Smart inspects the heating, ventilation and air conditioning unit (HVAC). Keeping them clean can extend the life of the equipment. This can save you money and give you cleaner air to breathe.
However, duct cleaning is not always necessary. Eco Smart will make recommendations about the best way to address any indoor air quality concerns. This can save you money and provide peace of mind on your Indoor Air Quality.
Eco Smart can provide ductwork, as a turn-key-solution, which is fire rated and that satisfies BS476 Part 24:1987 for up to 4 hours stability and integrity with 1 hour’s protection from fire and fully in relies with HVCA Specification DW171.
Some form of duct work is required to move the extracted air to a safe location with all ventilation systems. This is usually discharged on an outside wall or roof. The replacement air is carried out by the duct work back into the kitchen. . Fire-rated ductwork installed by Eco Smart will prevent the spread of fire along the duct and maintain the integrity of both the ductwork and the compartments it passes through. In some cases, it can even prevent against fire entering the ductwork.
Eco Smart provides a large scale duct work for public buildings, kitchen air filtration systems and different industrial sectors.
During cooking, a combination of convective heat, grease, smoke and other particulate is released. These by-products constitute the cooking plume, or convection heat load, the size of which indicates the level of cooking. Having a planned maintenance schedule will help to decrease the chances of your ventilation system breaking down at times when the system is being used the most. Our planned maintenance schedule will keep your ventilation system running in the best condition and will give a greater life expectancy to components within the system. We carry out a survey of your system based on the age and current condition of the system and components within the system. We can then devise a planned maintenance schedule.
Kitchen Air Ventilation & Extraction Systems
Kitchens can be very difficult environments for the Ventilation Systems to control, when cooking with oil is carried out such as when deep fat fryers, frying pans, char grilles etc. Cooking produces significant quantities of fumes, vapors and high temperatures. Ventilation Systems are essential in taking away and discharging these to a safe external location.
Large Industrial Kitchens require more complex Ventilation System with Extract Hoods, Grease Filters and interface with the gas supply, Electrostatic Smoke Fume Control, UV (Ultra Violet Light) germ and odour control, Carbon Filters, Fan Motor etc. Extract Hood includes both fresh air provision and extract with washable grease filters. Eco Smart provide various types Kitchen Air Filtration Systems.

Make-up air is a ventilation term used to describe controlled supply of outside air to a building. An adequate supply of outside air is necessary for proper ventilation. An exhaust system without sufficient make-up air will cause a negative pressure situation in the building which will decrease the performance of the ventilation system.
Benefits of Air Makeup
- providing fresh air to facilities
- making the atmosphere more comfortable
- preventing negative building pressure
- meeting code requirements
Application areas of makeup air systems
- Manufacturing facilities that house industrial processes
- Buildings that accommodate large concentrations of people
