NAFA Presents 32 Clean Air Awards
Award recognizes building owners, managers who significantly improve IAQ
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — The National Air Filtration Association (NAFA) announced the recipients of its 2015 Clean Air Awards. The Clean Air Awards are presented each year to building owners and managers who take steps to significantly improve the quality of their indoor air by increasing the level or efficiency of their HVAC air filtration system in 10 specific categories.
Candidates are nominated by both NAFA members and members of the facility management community for the award and must submit detailed and specific steps taken toward cleaning the indoor environment through better air filtration and system hygiene. A NAFA-certified Air Filter Specialist confirms these improvements. Awards are judged by the NAFA Clean Air Award Committee, and each recipient receives a custom designed trophy, building signage, and recognition for their efforts.
Award-winning buildings must maintain IAQ diligence and submit inspection data each year in order to maintain the NAFA Clean Air Award.
