Cleaner Indoor Air for Texas School
Districts
Most Texas Schools use $2
throwaway Polyester Pad Air Filters that do not clean the air below 1 micron.
If your school is 2 blocks away
from a freeway, you need Polypropylene Air Filters in your school's air
conditioning system to clean the traffic fumes from the indoor air
A 2 inch
Polypropylene Air Filter replaces all the 2 inch Commercial Air Filters
on the market. It delivers cleaner air at 0.5 microns than Fiberglass,
Polyester Pads, and Cotton / Polyester Blend Pleated Air Filters.
It uses less Electricity than
polyester pad air filters to clean the air.
I measured the morning outdoor air quality outside this
Houston High School for 40 minutes.
Texas School Buses Bring Students to
Schools Every Weekday 7 - 8 AM. |
This Dylos Air Quality Monitor Model DC1100 Laser Particle
Counter Shows a Reading of 11,122
at 7:36 AM.
The Air Particle Count is over a million
particles per cubic foot (1,112,200 Particles / Ft3) at 0.5
microns.
These Lung Damaging Dust Size Particles enter
the school through the school entrance and makeup / fresh air ducts.
This School uses a Polyester Pad Air Filter in
the air conditioning system that filters out only 1% of these 0.5 micron
size particles
from the air.
The Student's Lungs Clean the air 18 times
better than the Polyester Pad Air Filters.

One in three U.S.
public schools are in the "air pollution danger zone," according to new
research from the University of Cincinnati (UC).
*
Houston TX Morning Traffic |
UC researchers have found that more than 30
percent of U.S. public schools are within a quarter mile of major
highways putting students at risk of respiratory diseases.
Research has shown that proximity to major
highways—and thus environmental pollutants, such as aerosolizing diesel
exhaust particles—can leave school-age children more susceptible to
respiratory diseases later in life.
For many years, our focus has been on homes when
it comes to air pollution.
School attendance may result in a large dose of
inhaled traffic pollutants that—until now—have been completely
overlooked.
"Existing schools should be retrofitted with air
filtration systems that will reduce student's exposure to traffic
pollutants." |

School Districts are cleaning up school's buses
unhealthy diesel exhaust - Diesel engines spew out nearly 40 toxic
substances, smog-forming emissions and particulate matter (PM), better
known as soot. Coarse and fine particles (PM10 and PM2.5) are breathed
deeply into the lungs where they can lodge, creating serious, even
life-threatening health problems (more on the health effects of soot and
the problem with diesel).
Children are at particular risk because their lungs are still
developing. Kids also breathe two times more air per pound of body
weight than adults do. The damage to young lungs can result in reduced
lung function by adulthood and other dangerous health problems. |

Indoor Air Quality Study Reveals
The
Best School HVAC MERV 8 Air Conditioning Air Filter!
Most Schools use $2 throwaway polyester air filter
pads that do not filter the air below 1 micron. The 0.5 micron particles
from bus fumes are a lung damaging dust that reach the students lungs
and triggers asthmatic attacks.
Asthma is the most common childhood disease.
9 million school age children in America
have asthma.
Air filtration media fabric has changed
in the last few years.
4 different types of air filter media fabric
were tested at 0.5 microns using a
Dylos Air Quality Monitor. Fiberglass Air Filters,
Polyester Pads & Links used in most schools and office buildings, Cotton
/ Polyester Blend pleated air filters & 100% Polypropylene pleated air
filters.
The 100%
Polypropylene Pleated Air Filter filtered the air best.
Just install our Air Janitor Polypropylene
Pleated Air Filter and use Dylos Air Quality Monitor to measure fewer
0.5 micron particles in the air your students will be breathing each
day! |
*
School Indoor Air Pollution Sources are from
Outdoor Makeup Air (15 CFM / Student), School Bus Fumes, and 5 minute class
change.
| Outdoor Air Pollution enters
the school through the school entrance. School buses bring students to
the school and the fumes from the diesel bus get sucked into the school
building. |
 |
*
| 5 Minute Class
Change |
 |
Indoor air pollution is
created in the hallway during the 5 minute class change. |
 |
During the 5 minute class change, a
student will breathe in more particles that reach the Lungs Alveoli. |
 |
At a High School with 3000+
students, there were more airborne >0.5 micron particles in the hallway
during class change than outdoors during rush hour traffic! |

Air Conditioning accounts for 40% to 60% of the
electricity used in US commercial buildings and residential homes.
