Bharti Realty has tied up with Honeywell to help improve indoor air quality (IAQ) in company’s real estate portfolio in National Capital Region.
The company will help improving indoor air quality at Airtel Centre, Bharti Crescent and Worldmark buildings, which have both office and retail spaces.
Honeywell has deployed its Electronic Air Cleaners (EACs) with UV Systems to help remove impurities from the air as well as provide filtration, without significantly impeding air flow.
The initial deployment of the solutions helped lower air quality index (AQI) levels from >200 to <50 and PM2 levels from 150ug/m3 to <25 ug/m3 in Bharti’s buildings.
“We are committed to providing safer workspaces for our employees and tenants and are pleased to work with Honeywell to address indoor air quality in several of our key buildings to provide a healthier building experience,” said SK Sayal, wholetime director and CEO, Bharti Realty Limited.
“Like many building owners, we were challenged to identify ways to address indoor air quality across our building portfolio, without sacrificing our energy efficiency goals. Honeywell helped us identify a solution that could support both needs,” he added.
Honeywell EACs use an electric charge to help remove solid and liquid impurities from the air without impeding air flow. The UV System emits ultraviolet light to damage the DNA structure of certain microbes at the cellular level and inactivate certain viral, bacterial and fungal organisms.
Honeywell EACs with UV Systems can be installed inside a commercial HVAC system, without the need to remove old equipment and install a new system entirely.
“As facility owners look at ways of building confidence among the returning workforce and visitors, improving indoor air quality can be critical. Honeywell’s Healthy Buildings offerings can help boost confidence of thousands of visitors and occupants across these premium commercial properties of Bharti Realty,” said Ashish Modi, president, Honeywell Building Technologies – Asia.
Honeywell is working with facility managers around the world to create better occupant experiences in the hopes of increasing productivity.
