The National Air Filtration Association announced recipients of its Fall 2025 Clean Air Award, which recognizes facilities that demonstrate excellence in improving indoor air quality through advanced air filtration practices. Presented twice each year, the award honors building owners and managers who go above and beyond industry standards to create cleaner, healthier and more sustainable indoor environments.
Facilities are nominated by NAFA members and evaluated by the NAFA Clean Air Award Committee. Each nominee must provide detailed documentation of the steps taken to improve the quality of their indoor environment, including implementation of high-efficiency filtration products, rigorous system maintenance and adherence to best air filtration practices.
Recipients receive a custom-designed award, building signage and recognition within NAFA’s communications and industry networks. To maintain this distinction, award-winning facilities must continue demonstrating IAQ diligence by submitting annual inspection data and sustaining compliance with NAFA’s Clean Air Award standards. Nominations for the program are accepted year-round, with major recognition cycles held each spring and fall.
