Camfil Farr software determines precise cost of air filters and reduces building ventilation and energy costs

COVENTRY, ENGLAND, December 05, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- In today's increasingly energy-conscious society, property owners and facility management firms are well aware that reducing the energy consumption of their buildings will help improve the overall greenness of their portfolio. Selecting the right air filters for their air handling systems is one way to save energy. The typical energy cost of air filters, as a percentage of the total ventilation system, is approximately 30%. When building owners use the right air filters with the right design and lowest average pressure drop, they can cut their energy consumption while maintaining healthy indoor air quality to the benefit of occupants and the environment.

LCC (Life Cycle Cost) software is a valuable tool to achieve this. Camfil Farr was the first air filter manufacturer to develop this programme, which determines the precise LCC costs for a particular filter, in any given air handling system, based on its unique operating conditions and requirements. On a step-by-step basis, the software calculates the specific cost for filters, taking into account all important factors such as installation issues, the condition of ducts, filter changes, energy consumption and purchase, maintenance and disposal concerns.

Expenses associated with building ventilation tend to be substantial and air filters are the only system component that can be changed at reasonable cost. With LCC software and other filter management services. Camfil Farr has helped thousands of customers reduce energy expenses by choosing the optimum low energy air filters. This focus on energy and costs has paid off for customers: over a 20-year period, improving the energy efficiency of Camfil Farr air filters by 60%.
