Maintaining quality indoor air conditions

Tremco Maintaining quality indoor air conditions
September 23, 2024 at 9:00 a.m.

By Anna Lockhart.  

Keeping up with the condition and maintenance of your indoor air quality units and HVAC systems is key to the building’s structural health. 

In the AskARoofer podcast episode, “Improving Indoor Air Quality,” host Lauren White is joined by guests Frank Santini from PureAir and Ryan Gottermeier from Tremco WTI to discuss the importance of maintaining good indoor air quality (IAQ) in commercial buildings. Regular HVAC and air handler maintenance can prevent bad air quality and any damage to the units, keeping systems intact longer!  

Ryan stressed the importance of indoor air quality and why it’s important for building occupants, “An air handler's kind of the lungs of the building. It breathes in and out, it pushes new air in, and it returns or cycles and exhausts old air out. So right off the bat, proper filtration, it's part of a robust maintenance program. A lot of facilities do maintain proper filtration, but sometimes, over time, those deteriorate and cause a problem, where they're not properly filtering the air.” 

He recommends ensuring that all air systems are checked for functioning waterproofing, as moisture leaks in these systems can lead to serious mold growth and humidity inside the building. Frank shared. “We want to make sure that we have fresh air, we also want to make sure the contaminants in the air are as small as possible. We always have some contaminants, because it's just the nature of things. There's mold everywhere, but we try to reduce that through filtration and through providing fresh air and some of the other things we're going to be talking about today.” 

The easiest and most effective solution to preventing these issues? Enacting preventative maintenance programs. Preventative maintenance makes for a strong first line of defense against poor air quality, stopping any pollutants before they have a chance to happen or populate.
