The quality of the air we breathe in indoor environments is essential for our health and well-being. Recently, Vesta Solutions Sagl tackled a major challenge in a building in Lugano: the ventilation ducts were clogged with dust and lint, compromising the system’s efficiency and occupant health.
The Problem
During a routine check, we discovered:
• Dust and lint buildups clogging the ducts
• Reduced airflow, causing energy inefficiency
• Increased risk of allergies and respiratory issues for occupants
• Potential fire hazards due to flammable materials in the ducts
Possible Consequences Without Intervention:
• Health Issues: Allergies, asthma, and spread of bacteria and mold
• Higher Energy Costs: The system works harder with fewer results
• Safety Risks: Possible fires and failure to comply with regulations
• Damage to Corporate Image: Unhealthy environments can affect reputation
