Cooling and ventilation to improve air quality in the workplace

Air pollution and heatwaves are set to reach new, concerning heights.

Among the major outdoor pollutants, we find sulfur dioxide, typical of diesel engines, and nitrogen dioxide, which comes from gasoline engines; both produce fine particles known as particulate matter. Particulate matter or atmospheric particulate matter is very fine dust, often in the form of polluting gases and toxic vapors, so light that it can easily remain suspended in the air and therefore be breathed in. Climate and atmospheric deterioration then have a significant impact on the quality of working environments. At Art-Eco, we believe that the microclimate, together with air pollution, has a significant impact on the quality of the environments in which people live and work, and consequently on their well-being. Microclimatic and environmental comfort refer to the quality of indoor air in an environment, both from the point of view of physical properties (temperature, humidity, ventilation) and chemical properties (clean or fresh air); more precisely, when there are no specific pollutants present in harmful concentrations and when at least 80% of occupants express satisfaction with it.

How our evaporative coolers improve business comfort.

Evaporative Cooling, combined with good ventilation, allow for continuous circulation, with the possibility of introducing fresh, clean, and filtered air, recreating a healthy environment. This helps to avoid pollutants and risk factors within workspaces that could lead to Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). Ventilation plays an important role in the human body’s thermoregulation process and in ensuring situations of environmental comfort. Another necessary condition for achieving total well-being is “thermal comfort.” This is achieved when the individual is in a state of satisfaction, and the human body does not feel cold or hot. Art-Eco’s evaporative coolers, designed and sized according to the specific needs of each environment, ensure the rapid achievement and maintenance of this comfort. They contribute to optimally adjusting environmental parameters such as temperature, relative humidity, circulation, and air velocity, making them essential in combating the harmful effects caused by climate change and excessive temperature increase.
