Optimizing Air Quality & Energy Efficiency in Offices: ASPRA INduct for Gemeente Zeist

Replacing HEPA Challenges with ASPRA INduct in Office Buildings

Improving Filtration Performance While Reducing Energy Consumption

Traditional HEPA filtration in office buildings poses significant challenges due to high resistance, energy consumption, and frequent maintenance. Despite initial validation, H13 filters often experience leakage issues, leading to compromised air quality.

To resolve this issue, Gemeente Zeist implemented ASPRA INduct as an alternative, integrating it into the HVAC system to replace EU7 and EU9 filters. The result? Lower particulate matter (PM) levels, a 70% reduction in energy consumption, and extended filter lifespan—all without the risk of leakage.

About the Project

Ensuring clean indoor air in office buildings is crucial for employee health, productivity, and regulatory compliance. However, the use of HEPA filters (H13) in commercial buildings comes with several drawbacks: high resistance, increased energy costs, and frequent maintenance requirements. Additionally, despite validation, HEPA filters are prone to leakage issues, which can compromise filtration efficiency.

To address these challenges, Gemeente Zeist implemented ASPRA INduct as an innovative air purification solution. By replacing EU7 and EU9 filters in the HVAC system, the municipality successfully lowered PM concentrations, reduced energy consumption by 70%, and extended filter lifespan. ASPRA INduct provides HEPA-level filtration without the drawbacks, ensuring a sustainable and cost-effective solution for commercial office buildings.

Detailed Approach

Problem Description

For office buildings, HEPA filtration (H13) is often required to maintain optimal air quality. However, its high resistance and energy consumption, along with the need for multiple pre-filters, make it an inefficient and costly option.

Additionally, HEPA filters frequently experience leakage issues due to improper installation or maintenance, which compromises filtration performance. Despite initial validation, ensuring consistent filtration efficiency over time remains a challenge.

The Solution

To overcome these air purification challenges, Gemeente Zeist installed ASPRA INduct in their HVAC system to replace EU7 and EU9 filters. Unlike traditional HEPA systems, ASPRA INduct delivers high-efficiency filtration with lower resistance, reducing overall energy consumption.

The ASPRA system effectively removes particulate matter (PM), bacteria, viruses, and other airborne contaminants without the downsides of HEPA filtration, ensuring sustained indoor air quality without frequent maintenance or leakage concerns.

The Result

With ASPRA INduct, air quality improved significantly in office spaces. The system achieved up to 70% energy savings, providing a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to HEPA filtration.

Additionally, the longer lifespan of ASPRA filters reduced operational downtime and maintenance requirements, while completely eliminating the risk of HEPA leakage. The project has successfully provided a cleaner, safer, and more efficient working environment for employees.
