Over 90% cleaner air for healthier learning environments
The IQAir Clean Air Schools program helps schools improve indoor air quality to support healthier environments for students, teachers, and staff.
Healthy Schools – Healthy Students
Today's schools are expected to support safer learning environments while maintaining confidence among students, staff, parents, and the community. Many school leaders are also looking for ways to support student and staff well-being, reduce disruptions to learning, reduce absences, and create healthier classroom environments.
IQAir Clean Air Schools helps schools evaluate, improve, and verify indoor air quality across classrooms and other shared school spaces with advanced filtration, monitoring, and implementation support tailored for educational environments.
Schools choose IQAir Clean Air Schools to help:
- Improve indoor air quality across classrooms and shared spaces
- Support student and staff well-being
- Reduce exposure to airborne pollutants and ultrafine particles
- Reinforce confidence among parents, teachers, and staff
- Minimize disruptions to learning caused by indoor air quality concerns
- Implement cleaner air strategies with energy-efficient solutions
- Verify and monitor indoor air quality performance over time
The program is built around a benchmark of indoor air that’s over 90% cleaner than outdoors, supported by verification and monitoring.
Why indoor air quality matters in schools
Students and staff spend a significant portion of their day indoors. As expectations around health, wellness, and environmental quality continue to rise, many schools are looking for ways to create healthier indoor spaces that support learning and daily operations.
Cleaner indoor air can help schools strengthen confidence across their communities while demonstrating a proactive commitment to healthier educational environments.
Advanced filtration designed for schools
Most schools are only required to meet MERV 13 filtration standards. IQAir NanoMax filtration technology surpasses MERV 16 standards while maintaining pressure drops comparable to MERV 8 filters, helping support both filtration performance and energy efficiency.
IQAir high-efficiency panel filtration is designed to help schools reduce airborne ultrafine particles, including viruses and other harmful pollutants, while helping minimize strain on HVAC systems.
Unlike traditional filtration approaches that may require continuous high-energy operation, IQAir solutions are engineered to help schools pursue cleaner indoor air with efficient long-term performance.
