90% of our time is spent indoors where the air often contains 4-10x the pollutants of outdoor air. The COGfx Studies* show that a green building can have a significant impact on occupants’ productivity and cognitive performance. Optimizing ventilation is key to preventing the spread of airborne viruses and reduces negative health outcomes associated with poor air quality.

Buildings currently represent 39% of global greenhouse emissions, with 28% of that resulting from operational emissions*. Aircuity has a large impact on carbon in energy intensive buildings. It is also an enabling technology in net zero energy (NZE) buildings as every KW saved with Aircuity, saves 300x on the clean energy required! HVAC energy can be reduced by 40-60% in labs and by 15-30% in other variable population buildings.

Aircuity’s patented, centralized demand control ventilation system has been reliably monitoring and controlling ventilation using science-based IAQ standards for over 20 years. Unlike other discrete sensing systems Aircuity uses one set of industrial grade sensors which are calibrated semi-annually. For further accuracy, the differential measurement approach uses one sensor to measure the reference and the room air to eliminate offset drift, which is the largest component of drift.
Why should you care about your air quality? Studies have found that improved air quality doubles occupants’ cognitive function test scores and even reduces sick days. Organizations are increasingly looking to healthy buildings to help attract and retain tenants, employees and students!
