Understand the Value Our Team Can Bring To Your Next Project
As a member of an architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) team designing for healthcare environments, you’ve likely noticed that more and more commercial facilities are becoming aware of the business case for good indoor air quality (IAQ). For example, facility managers may understand the exorbitant costs of healthcare-related infections and want to do everything they can to limit their risk exposure.
Organizations are more eager than ever to leverage their existing HVAC infrastructure or commission new products and systems to benefit from superior filtered air. However, to take advantage of this benefit, these companies must look to subject-matter experts.
This doesn’t mean selecting just any commercial HVAC manufacturer. Tapping IAQ expertise requires a more niche partnership: a critical environment manufacturing facility. These HVAC engineers design specifically for environments with the most stringent clean air standards, like wards for immunocompromised patients, imaging suites, surgical theaters, and on-site pharmaceutical compounding cleanrooms.
Critical environment manufacturers possess the most detailed and up-to-date knowledge on how to get the best indoor air quality for any medical facility. Therefore, any AEC team that requires an HVAC partner, should consider whether this manufacturer has an extensive history in critical environment, mission-critical, or clean room HVAC engineering for healthcare.
Keep reading to find out more about what makes critical environment manufacturers, like AJ Manufacturing, so valuable to your team as you build your next project in the medical field.
Keep Critical Environment HVAC Products In Your Back Pocket
Critical environment manufacturing facilities develop customized products for healthcare facilities whose standards of care depend on IAQ precision.
These AJ Manufacturing products are commonly used in healthcare facilities throughout the country:
- HEPA and ULPA filtration are valuable tools for a facility that wants to remove contaminants from the air.
- Ceiling fan filter units blow filtered air into an environment to provide targeted clean air.
- Portable fan filter units provide filtered air wherever it is needed at a moment’s notice.
- Structural ceiling systems are units that include space for fan filter units, diffusers, lighting, surgical equipment mounting, and more to house a surgical theater’s many needs.
Although these products are more likely to be installed in particular parts of a hospital where IAQ is absolutely essential, healthcare facilities as a whole have recognized that infection prevention must become a part of their comprehensive IAQ plan. After all, infectious aerosols don’t limit themselves to one location.
If your client requests an environment that prioritizes health through clean, filtered air, your ability to tap the expertise of a cleanroom expert is critical. With our help, you can demonstrate your agility, the depth of your strategic partnerships, and your commitment to delivering the right solutions when needed.
IAQ Expertise At a Moment’s Notice
Critical environment experts like AJ Manufacturing ensure you have the products your client’s facility requires. Yet the knowledge behind these critical environment solutions may be even more valuable for your AEC team to leverage throughout your facility’s design, build, and engineering process..
AJ Manufacturing provides particular subject-matter expertise in many areas beyond infection prevention:
- The latest general and industry-specific requirements, standards, and recommendations for indoor air quality
- New and emerging technologies, including UV-C lighting and bipolar ionization
- The value of prefabrication and modular design for commissioning and recommissioning
- Sustainability and energy efficiency as it relates to HVAC equipment
- Cybersecurity for commercial HVAC equipment
As your team decides how to deliver the best air quality and HVAC infrastructure for your healthcare client, bringing AJ Manufacturing to the table can lend credibility and authority in specific areas that may be outside the scope of your team’s knowledge.
Although a typical commercial HVAC company may understand how to speak to the benefits of generalized HVAC products and their use, we’ve refined our knowledge even further to deliver IAQ and critical environment solutions. We can also provide connections for additional partnerships, including engineers who specialize in cleanroom monitoring systems.
Invest In an HVAC Team Who Knows Critical Environments
Even if your client doesn’t necessarily need the level of rigor that some facilities require, demonstrating that you have a partner who can scale back from their advanced standards is always preferable to an HVAC team that has to stretch to understand a client’s needs.
At AJ Manufacturing, our expertise has allowed us to take the lead on significant healthcare projects throughout the U.S., including:
- University of Texas Health Science Center
- Walter Reed National Military Medical Center
- University of Kansas Hospital
Our critical environment manufacturing facility delivers for high-profile clients, while also remaining fully dedicated to serving projects like rural hospitals that also require exceptional solutions for their patients. No matter where we work, we bring our healthcare knowledge with us, so that your clients can experience the benefits of excellent air filtration and distribution.
