Furbish Company designs, furnishes, installs and maintains Naturaire© biofilters, developed by Air Quality Solutions in Guelph, Ontario. These biofilters replace high-tech, energy consumptive air filtration systems with living walls that harness the natural phytoremediation capabilities of tropical houseplants to effectively remove common airborne pollutants.

Outdoor Air Exchanges

--------------------

Traditionally, the build-up of VOCs is avoided through ventilation. This is the introduction of new ‘fresh’ outside air into the building to dilute accumulating contaminants.

The conditioning of this additional flow of air can be very expense. It must be heated or cooled (depending on the season) prior to distribution in the building. Further, ventilation does not solve the problem of the pollutants; instead it simply releases the pollutants to the outdoor to become “someone else’s problem”.
