Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Solutions
Expertise, services and solutions to improve your building’s air quality and achieve a healthier, more viable space for those inside.
What is Indoor Air Quality?
Indoor air quality refers to the quality of air circulating in and around your building. While often invisible to the naked eye, there are many airborne pollutants and other health risks in the built environment. Understanding what’s in the air you breathe and taking measures to improve your indoor air quality can have a profound impact on the health of your building and those inside it.
How to Improve Indoor Air Quality
The most effective way to improve your indoor air quality is to implement personalized solutions that balance the well-being of your occupants with your business and energy goals. That’s why our process begins with an IAQ assessment to understand your operational challenges, evaluate your current air quality and provide recommendations for improving it. From there, your dedicated Trane expert will create a portfolio of solutions backed by ASHRAE® and REHVA® guidelines and designed to dilute, exhaust, contain and clean the air in your building. By aligning our building expertise with your business realities, we’re able to provide individualized strategies that help you make the right IAQ investment and add value to your building for years to come.
How do you Monitor Indoor Air Quality?
In order to effectively monitor indoor air quality, you need to be able to visualize your building data and make changes in real-time. Trane’s integrated monitoring and controls solutions make that possible. Complete with remote connectivity and up-to-the-second dashboard reporting, our app-based technology gives you 24/7 visibility into your air quality to make precise optimizations and share status updates with stakeholders from anywhere in the world.

What are the Benefits of Improving Indoor Air Quality?
Improving your indoor air quality is one of the most effective ways to address airborne health risks in your building. According to the Center for Disease Control, infectious germs are commonly spread through respiratory droplets1. That makes air quality a primary factor for human wellness. Not only that, clean, well-optimized air can boost productivity levels and potentially reduce your energy costs as well. While its impact on your facility ultimately depends on a variety of factors unique to your business, there are some common ways you stand to benefit from IAQ :
- Mitigate airborne pollutants in your building
- Protect the health and well-being of your occupants
- Maintain comfortable humidity levels year-round
- Reduce energy costs with improved air flow
- Achieve a more energy-efficient and sustainable operation
