American ACs were robust, but some modern units aren't. #EnerefReport [eneref.org/heatpump] reveals manufacturing shortcuts. #Sustainability #CoolRoomCoolEarth"

We're excited to announce our Heat Pump Summit at Berkley in November. Visit eneref.org/event-details/hea… Part of our "Cool Room, Cool Earth" Campaign, and in association with the Eneref Institute Heat Pump Alliance. #HeatPumpSummit #HVAC

New Eneref Report explains how operable skylights play a role in mitigating global warming. [eneref.org/sunrooms] By reducing energy consumption and enhancing indoor environments, operable skylights are a win for homeowners and the planet. #GlobalWarming

New viruses emerge frequently, but only a few have ever become endemic. According to a new #EnerefReport eneref.org/merv13, equipping our schools with protective air filtration is essential to our kids’ future health and to maintaining #WellnessFriendlySchools.

In Dec. 2021, @NYCSchools took the success of Boys and Girls High School districtwide, recommending #MERV13 filters “as a proven and safe method for removing pathogens.” An #EnerefReport urges other districts to follow their lead: eneref.org/nycmerv #WellnessFriendlySchools
MERV-8 filters are common, but did you know they’re 5x less effective than #MERV13? According to the latest #EnerefReport (eneref.org/merv13), MERV-13 filters are 85% effective at capturing respiratory-sized particles and are critical to #WellnessFriendlySchools.
Skylights provide twice the natural interior daylight of vertical windows, and they’re the only window feature that delivers daylight into the core of a room. See why else Eneref Institute recommends skylights in our #RightToDaylight #EnerefReport: eneref.org/roofwindow
After installing #MERV13 filters to help reduce viral pathogens and promote #WellnessFriendlySchools, @NYCschools replaced the filters at 30-day intervals. See exactly how #MERV13 works to promote student health: eneref.org/nycmerv #EnerefReport
A #CodeForClimate #EnerefReport eneref.org/structural argues that custom window manufacturers should adhere to mandatory testing and code compliance, even while leaving their window specifications more open-ended for engineer preference.

During #covid19, John Shea, CEO for Division of School Facilities (DSF) at @NYCSchools, made a critical decision to protect student health: installing @Friedrich_AC #MERV13 filtration. Find out why in a new #EnerefReport: eneref.org/nycmerv #WellnessFriendlySchools

According to the latest #EnerefReport, #MERV13 filtration in air conditioning systems can help protect students from contracting viruses—including SARS-CoV-2. See why proper filtration is a must for #WellnessFriendlySchools: eneref.org/merv13
Another benefit of AC units with #MERV13 filtration? According to Howard Blady of Klearview Appliance, “You can put it on fan mode to [capture the virus] and it’ll cost you a fraction of the money in energy.” #WellnessFriendlySchools #EnerefReport eneref.org/nycmerv
To address #ClimateChange and provide the #RightToDaylight, Eneref Institute urges all home builders to include #skylights as a central feature of new home designs. (The increased ROI doesn’t hurt, either!) Read the full #EnerefReport: eneref.org/roofwindow
Viral particles are naturally dispersed by outdoor wind, but indoors, we need proper filtration to reduce concentration and exposure. A new #EnerefReport examines which filters work to protect our health indoors (and which don’t): eneref.org/merv13
#MERV13 filtration reduces viral pathogens but requires more energy. @NYCSchools demonstrates effective mitigation via rooftop solar panels that reduce annual carbon emissions by 182Mg CO2. Read the full #CoolRoomCoolEarth #EnerefReport: eneref.org/nycmerv

Did you know? The same housing features that help mitigate #ClimateChange can also result in higher ROI for production home builders. A new #EnerefReport explains why #skylights shouldn’t be overlooked in new home designs: eneref.org/roofwindow #RightToDaylight

According to ASHRAE’s Filtration & Disinfection Guidance, the HVAC equipment in schools almost certainly played a role in the transmission of SARS-CoV-2. That’s why our latest #EnerefReport eneref.org/merv13 urges more robust filtration for #WellnessFriendlySchools

Improved HVAC filtration systems, like MERV-13, reduce exposure to airborne pathogens but also increase energy demand. Find out how @NYCSchools mitigates the increased carbon footprint in a new #WellnessFriendlySchools #EnerefReport eneref.org/nycmerv
Over 1 million Americans have died from SARS-CoV-2, some of whom were undoubtedly infected by children bringing the virus home from school. A new #EnerefReport eneref.org/merv13 explains how better filtration could have helped. #WellnessFriendlySchools
