Why is an air filter important?
Polluted air can cause health risks. Especially for people with allergies or respiratory diseases such as COPD, bronchitis and asthma, dirty air can worsen symptoms. There is increasing attention to respiratory infections and other lung diseases, making the importance of air filtration increasingly important. In addition to our health, clean filters keep the air handling system and air ducts cleaner. With clean heat exchangers and fans, the system stays quiet, energy efficient and running in top condition.
When outdoor air is not effectively filtered, there is a risk that indoor air may contain a large amount of harmful particles that find their way into the human respiratory tract. Airborne particles can be carriers of pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses. Especially in places where pollutants are present, such as in a densely populated city, or in industrial environments and almost everywhere along highways and railroads, it is important to pay attention to the proper air filter.
Does an air filter help against particulate matter?
An air filter from Vlint protects against ingesting particulate matter. Particulate matter is a form of dust made up of microscopic airborne particles that is increasingly seen as a threat to public health. These particles can enter the lungs and blood. This can lead to dust lungs and cardiovascular disease. The main function of an air filter is to keep these substances out, protecting the indoor environment from harmful substances.
Does an air filter ventilation system need to be maintained?
For a healthy indoor environment, it is important to regularly maintain the ventilation system. Do you notice that the air is not so clean? For example, are some people suffering from a dry throat, shortness of breath or asthma complaints? These complaints can be prevented by cleaning, renewing or repairing the ventilation system. In addition, you always save costs with regular maintenance. You can come to us for a variety of filtration services such as filter changes and filter system repair and maintenance.
Are air filters mandatory?
The Occupational Health and Safety Act states that the best possible working conditions should be sought within an organization. This includes a healthy indoor climate. In addition, Article 6.2 of the Working Conditions Decree states that sufficient non-polluted air must be present in the workplace, that air-conditioning systems must always be ready for operation, and that they must function in such a way that employees are not hindered by drafts.
Air freshening systems must also be equipped with a control system that signals malfunctions in the system. With our products and services, you can be assured that the air inside your company is purified and dust-free.

At Hospital Adrz in Goes, for example, we found that the air handling units were in need of improvement. The air handling units were already very old and would not last long. A hospital has to meet strict requirements, so it was time for a major overhaul. We helped the hospital refurbish and preserve their air handling units. As a result, the hospital has a healthy indoor climate in an efficient manner.
