Funding for Schools: Peace of Mind for Your Classroom
Throughout 2020, a series of emergency relief funds were implemented to address the impact of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Now, two years later in 2022, these funds are still available to address indoor air quality and create a safer learning environment for students and staff alike. With aging structures and HVAC systems, it is vital to provide effective air purification to mitigate the dangers of breathing untreated air.
“Good IAQ contributes to a favorable environment for students, performance of teachers and staff, and a sense of comfort, health and well-being. These elements combine to assist a school in its core mission — educating children.”
