PROActiv Health: indoor air quality and its affect on wellbeing

On average, people spend 90% of their time indoors. At work, home, school or even the supermarket. While indoors, do you ever think about the quality of the air you’re breathing? You should. It has a direct impact on your health and cognitive functioning.

Healthy indoor air is essential for the wellbeing of building occupants. It’ll help keep CO2 at low levels, which boosts energy and productivity, and hazardous pollutants are kept at bay. This includes things like dust, dirt, mould particles and chemicals. Some are dangerous, while others make you feel drowsy, but it’s high density – coupled with excessive exposure – that causes adverse effects.

Thankfully, there’s a simple solution: PROActiv Health. It’ll help keep indoor spaces safe, fresh and productive all year round through advanced air quality monitoring.

How does PROActiv Health work?

PROActiv Health is a premium smart sensor, digitally connected to your building energy management system (BEMS). It monitors airborne chemicals and particles and air temperature and humidity to gage whether your indoor spaces are healthy and fit for purpose.

Real-time data is fed into a smart digital interface, allowing you to:

  • View, compare and export air quality insights from a user-friendly dashboard.
  • Identify areas that need further investigation; from low air flow to targeting the cause (and subsequent resolution) of low indoor air quality.

What will PROActiv Health do for you?

Comfortable buildings = happy occupants

It’ll allow your building to breathe. Working with your BEMS, PROActiv Health circulates fresh air throughout the day. Raised oxygen levels give occupants a natural energy boost and dilutes air pollutants, keeping them at comfortable levels.

Prevent the spread of viruses

At high levels, air pollutants can negatively impact heath and some even facilitate the spread of viruses. Monitoring these particles can help prevent airborne illnesses being transmitted. Following the Covid-19 lockdown, this has become increasingly important.

Keep an eye on occupancy thresholds

Too many people in your building? If occupancy thresholds exceed a safe level, you’ll be alerted.

Boost productivity and engagement

Keep chemicals and particles and air temperature and humidity at targeted set points. The result? Productive and engaged occupants. Test scores have been shown to improve by 12% in low CO2 environments and employees’ work 60% faster.

Keep everyone in your building safe

If anything suspicious is detected, you’ll be alerted. So rest assured nothing will ‘slip through the net’ with PROActiv Health.

Why choose PROActiv Health?

“PROActiv Health is not your standard air quality monitor. It’s a premium indoor climate solution with depth and quality at the centre of its design.
