[{"type":"text","content":"- Honeywell Electronic Air Cleaners with UV Systems remove impurities from the air and provide filtration and disinfection without a significant pressure drop\n - New indoor air quality sensors detect even the smallest particles, volatile compounds and other key metrics\n\n\nATLANTA, Nov. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today expanded its holistic Healthy Buildings Air Quality offering to help improve and measure commercial building indoor air quality with the introduction of Honeywell Electronic Air Cleaners (EACs) with UV Systems and a new line of indoor air quality (IAQ) sensors. Honeywell EACs with UV help remove impurities from the air as well as provide filtration and disinfection, without significantly impeding air flow. The new IAQ sensors include Honeywell's Particulate Matter Sensor PM2.5, Total Volatile Organic Compound (TVOC) Sensor and All-in-One IAQ Sensor.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \nAir quality is essential to a healthy building. It can impact occupant health and productivity, energy efficiency and real estate value. The quality of air is affected by the presence of pollutants in the indoor environment that may cause harm. When IAQ is poor, occupants can experience a drop in productivity as well as adverse health effects such as asthma and bronchitis.1 The concentration of some pollutants can be two to five times higher indoors than typical outdoor concentrations.2\n\"More people are paying attention to air quality and the importance of creating healthier environments in the spaces we use for work, school, entertainment and travel,\" said Manish Sharma, vice president and chief technology officer, Honeywell Building Technologies. \"Building owners are looking for ways to create safer, cleaner air to instill occupant confidence as well as attract future commercial tenants.\"\nSharma continued: \"We're talking to hundreds of customers who are navigating these concerns right now and working with them to update their building systems to better protect occupants. It doesn't always have to be a complicated process of ripping out old equipment and starting from scratch. It can be a straight-forward HVAC upgrade with modifications that address specific concerns and minimize potential side effects.
