Clean air: why it is an important component in Modern Architecture

There are many parts to a building that directly impact overall indoor air quality – insulation, windows, and air-conditioning systems, just to name a few. But why is indoor air quality a subject of concern? Why is there a need to change the approach towards clean air in the building? How with modern architecture, we can? Here is all you need to know.

Before you build, understand the ambient-environment impact of your building

According to CPSC, indoor air is more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest industrialized area.  Why? Building materials such as stone, brick, insulated metal, wall dust, MVOCs are breeding factors for the ubiquitous spreading of mold, bacteria, fungi, and air pollutants. 

Also, Building ventilation, level of humidity, toxic components from household cleaning can contribute to a poor indoor air environment. It is important to understand that any deviation in the composition of the air inhaled may have severe consequences on human health in the form of respiratory, cognitive, or physical health issues.

Addressing the problem of indoor air pollution for aging the structures

Apart from being hazardous to human health, indoor air pollution could lead to sick building syndrome. These air contaminants perform as a Detroiter of building components resulting in premature failure of the building. The past few years have been an upward trend for lawsuits because of poor indoor air quality.

The problem needs to be addressed through solutions that can be more in tune with the immediate environment and with the sources in hand. With the green & organic approach, structures can be designed including flora & fauna in such a way that it could reduce pollutant levels & humidity.

The value of using air purification in modern architecture 

Recently the modern architecture has switched towards air purification solutions for both residential type or commercial buildings. As the awareness regarding clean air is increasing, solutions such as central air purification systems, commercial air purification systems, and UV light for HVAC are rapidly being adopted. 

Central air purification systems come in handy against particulate pollution, VOCs, odor, and humidity whereas UV light for HVAC is mostly used to eliminate the harmful microbial count from the air. The practice of using air purification solutions is highly in trend as it is a more efficient way of maintaining clean air which can also easily sync with designs that do not want “greening” in the building.

Air purification systems can help create an energy-efficient design in modern architecture to make a clean air environment. Clean air is a value proposition to offer.
