Air filtration in health centers & hospitals

In modern hospital environments, air quality is crucial. Ensuring clean and healthy air is essential to protect the health and safety of patients, staff, and visitors. Filters play a key role in this. It is of great importance to apply the right filters. The choice for the most suitable filters should be based on specific needs, air quality standards, and the nature of the environment. With air filters, we ensure that patients and employees are protected against infections and that the ventilation systems in health centers remain protected against contaminants. In this document, we delve deeper into the key aspects of air filtration in hospitals and provide insight into selecting the right filters for optimal performance and safety.

Why filter in health centers & hospitals?

In hospitals, where infection prevention, allergen management, and general air quality are top priorities, filtration plays a vital role. Clean air is crucial to reduce the spread of pathogens and allergens. This is essential for:

  • Patients with respiratory conditions
  • Infection prevention during surgeries
  • Preventing cross-contamination between different departments
  • Protecting medical equipment from contamination
  • Maintaining a comfortable and healthy environment for both patients and individuals

Selecting filters for health centers & hospitals

When selecting filters for hospital applications, several factors are important. Medical institutions must comply with air quality standards, with each space having its own requirements. Filter efficiency, lifespan, and ease of maintenance are crucial to control overall costs. A thorough evaluation of air quality requirements and the right filter technologies is necessary to achieve the best results.

Example situations of filtration in hospitals

  • Operating rooms: In operating rooms, HEPA filters are of utmost importance to eliminate microorganisms and reduce the risk of postoperative infections.
  • Isolation rooms: Here, HEPA filters and UV filters play a role in preventing the spread of infectious diseases.
  • Patient rooms: Filter systems with activated carbon filters can help to remove unpleasant odors, improving the comfort of patients and their families.

Importance of filters in nursing homes with the elderly

The elderly fall into the vulnerable sector and are therefore more susceptible to diseases and bacteria, so they require different care and quality than younger individuals. This is also the case for air filtration, which is why we provide more information about the importance of applying air filters in nursing homes in our whitepaper.
