Follow on Google News | Germantown School District Tackles Energy Efficiency & IAQWisconsin school district utilizes ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) to increase energy efficiency and improve indoor air quality (IAQ).
The district is working with Filtration Concepts to install a series of cutting edge ultraviolet (UV) technologies developed and manufactured by UltraViolet Devices, Inc. (UVDI). Twenty- Don Erickson, the Director of Building and Grounds at Germantown, commented on the selection of Filtration Concepts proposal, “The UVDI products were selected for the proper application of the existing equipment. The decision for the district to proceed with the project was based on energy savings. This was an easy decision with a projected return on investment of less than 3 years. Along with the energy savings, improved indoor air quality will reduce absenteeism.” The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has long been a proponent of improving indoor air quality in the nation’s schools. The EPA’s website states that, “Poor indoor air quality (IAQ) can cause illness requiring absence from school, and can cause acute health symptoms that decrease performance while at school. In addition, recent data suggest that poor IAQ can reduce a person’s ability to perform specific mental tasks requiring concentration, calculation, or memory.” Filtration Concepts has extensive experience helping school districts in Wisconsin improve energy efficiency, extend HVAC life, lower maintenance costs and improve IAQ. “We applaud the proactive approach that the Germantown School District has taken to protect their students, faculty and HVAC equipment,” reported Nick Orlando from Filtration Concepts.
