  • When windows can’t be opened to let air in and out, the AC tends to recirculate air that contains dust, biological contaminants, particulates, and most of all, the carbon dioxide (CO2) that people breathe out. When classrooms are filled, this spikes up to 4,000 ppm – four times the optimal amount. And when there is more CO2 present in classrooms, students can suffer from a lack of oxygen, leaving them unable to concentrate. Students can also suffer from headaches, and nausea, and generally feel tired and sleepy from lack of oxygen.

  • Smart Air provides a pre-programmable, fully automated, tried and tested complete turnkey air quality solution that enables all spaces to monitor temperature, c02 and humidity. This will inform, cue and operate Safetyline Jalousie’s motorised, high-performance louvre windows that provide up to 86% free air coupled with superior sealing capabilities that block wind, water, air and noise. Essentially allowing buildings to breathe for themselves.

  • In the wake of COVID-19, the world has learned how easy it is to transmit disease from one person to another, especially in an enclosed classroom. The need for classrooms to be equipped with proper ventilation systems has become more urgent than ever. Dramatically improve the Indoor Air Quality in our schools which would, therefore (with a consensus of scientific proof) reduce the prevalence and transmission of airborne diseases including bacteria, respiratory disease and viruses including Corona Viruses, increase thermal comfort, reduce annual energy consumption, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and carbon footprint.

  • Safetyline Jalousie louvre windows and the SmartAir system is a sustainable product, which in conjunction with the proposed economic incentives and health advantages, will prove their worth for now and in the future of built environments. As part of Safetyline Jalousie’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions and helping clients reach their sustainability goals, Safetyline Jalousie louvre windows can now be constructed from Hydro Reduxa Low Carbon Aluminium. Minimizing the carbon footprint of our products and maximizing opportunities for our clients and their projects. Additionally, the system is adapted to recognise morning and night purges, interlock air conditioning, automatically close louvres due to wind and also automatically lock for security without the need for human input.
