The National Air Filtration Association has announced its recipients of the Clean Air Awards for 2022. Three healthcare facilities are among this year’s recipients. The award is presented each year to building owners and managers who take steps to significantly improve indoor air quality by increasing the level or efficiency of their HVAC air filtration system.
Candidates are nominated for the award by NAFA members and must submit detailed and specific steps taken toward cleaning the indoor environment through “best air filtration practices” and system hygiene. A NAFA Certified Air Filter Specialist confirms these improvements. Nominees are judged by the NAFA Clean Air Award Committee, and each recipient receives a custom-designed award, building signage and recognition for their efforts.
Award-winning buildings must maintain IAQ diligence and submit inspection data each year to maintain the NAFA Clean Air Award. This year’s healthcare facility recipients include:
- DMC Huron Valley – Sinai Hospital, submitted by Patrick Wyman, CAFS, MANN+HUMMEL Air Filtration Americas
- Memorial Hermann – Sugar Land, submitted by Nicole Hodina, CAFS, NCT, The Filter Man, LLC
- Memorial Hospital, submitted by Rich Gray, NCT, Filter Services of Indiana, Inc.
