Addressing Ventilation Needs
In critical environments such as storm shelters, emergency shelters, and buildings on lockdown, maintaining safe indoor air quality is essential when outdoor conditions make ventilation risky. Reducing or eliminating outside air prevents further exposure to wildfire smoke, chemical threats, extreme heat, or pollution but does not remove contaminants already inside or generated indoors including VOCs like formaldehyde. Traditional HVAC filters capture only particulates, leaving harmful gases unfiltered. enVerid’s Sorbent Ventilation Technology® (SVT®) ensures clean, breathable air by scrubbing gaseous contaminants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), smoke-related pollutants, and carbon dioxide. With a two-year lifespan, enVerid’s SVT filters last significantly longer than gas-phase alternatives, reducing maintenance while ensuring continuous protection in sealed environments.
Protecting Health While Minimizing Operational Challenges
In high-stakes environments, SVT helps maintain clean, breathable air without the need for constant outside air intake, which can introduce dangerous pollutants. By efficiently filtering VOCs and gases, SVT ensures the safety and well-being of occupants while minimizing the risk of indoor air contamination. This allows critical facilities to focus on their core functions while avoiding the challenges and costs associated with traditional HVAC upgrades or expensive air filtration.
Protecting Health and Well-Being in Critical Environments
SVT helps safeguard the health of occupants by continuously filtering harmful gases and VOCs, even in lockdown scenarios where outside air is undesirable or unavailable. This reduces the risk that indoor air contains dangerous levels of contaminants like smoke, formaldehyde, and other pollutants that can accumulate in sealed environments, promoting a safer, healthier indoor environment.
For retrofits, SVT can be added to existing systems, allowing critical environments to work within their current electrical capacity and avoid costly electrical upgrades. In new construction, the use of SVT enables HVAC systems, electrical services, and ductwork to be downsized, further reducing upfront costs while maintaining optimal IAQ. The full range of HLR modules can help reduce VOCs levels while some modules also filter carbon dioxide.
Durable, Cost-Effective Air Quality Solutions
Each advanced SVT filter lasts up to two years, outperforming traditional gas-phase filters, which require more frequent replacement. This durability reduces maintenance needs and ensures uninterrupted air quality management, making it an ideal solution for facilities that must operate continuously without intervention.
Ensuring Compliance and Safety in Critical Spaces
SVT has been independently tested for cleaning efficiency following ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 145.2. By effectively reducing gaseous contaminants, SVT supports compliance with ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1, Section 6.3 (IAQ Procedure or IAQP) and the International Mechanical Code. Independently tested under ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 145.2, SVT has been validated as a safe and effective solution, producing zero byproducts while significantly improving indoor air quality.
