Clean Air When It Matters Most
Air filtration is a critical component of any emergency shelter, ensuring occupants have access to clean, breathable air during emergencies.
Types of Filtration Systems
Manual Systems operate without electrical power, making them reliable in any situation. They use hand-cranked mechanisms to push air through filtration media.
Powered Systems provide higher air flow rates and can be connected to backup power sources for extended operation.
Filtration Standards
Quality filtration systems should filter:
- Particulate matter
- Chemical agents
- Biological contaminants
Maintenance
Regular filter replacement and system testing ensure your air filtration system performs when needed. Follow manufacturer guidelines for maintenance schedules.
