Office Buildings

Sick Building Syndrome* (SBS) costs the US economy an amazing 250 billion dollars per year in health costs and lost productivity! Experts say the single largest culprit contributing to SBS is a building's HVAC system. The HVAC system will bring in outside air containing environmental contamination such as bacteria, mold and fungi. Once these contaminants reach the HVAC cooling coil they grow to health threatening levels and then are distributed to the occupants through the ventilation system. These same contaminants that are making the occupants sick are also rendering the HVAC system inefficient costing the building owner thousands of dollars per year in unnecessary energy costs.

VIGILAIR® eliminates the problem by completely eliminating contaminants from the HVAC system. The bottom line is that people stay healthier and the HVAC system works better, saving the building owner thousands of dollars in energy costs - in most cases giving a return on investment on under two years!

• 20% drop in symptoms associated with Sick Building Syndrome
• 40% drop in allergy symptoms amongst allergy sufferers
