Stop Replacing Filters on Guesswork

HVAC filters are often inspected or replaced according to fixed schedules, even though actual filtration conditions can vary between buildings, seasons, and operating environments.

AERIS continuously monitors PM1, PM2.5 and PM10 in representative occupied zones or selected HVAC monitoring points. By comparing particulate trends before and after filter changes, facility teams can see whether filtration is reducing airborne particles and identify changes that may require attention.

For broader HVAC insight, BREEZE adds CO₂, temperature, humidity, and other indoor environmental data. Sensor data can be integrated into the building management system (BMS), bringing real-time environmental trends into existing HVAC workflows and supporting more informed filtration and maintenance decisions.

Know What Your Filters Are Actually Delivering

Real-time particulate visibility, alerts when filtration performance slips, and 10-year battery life, so nothing sneaks up on you.

Connect Air Quality Data with Your Building and Maintenance Systems

Bring particulate and environmental data into the systems your teams already use by connecting the monitoring solution to your BMS, CMMS, CAFM, or energy management apps.

TEKTELIC LoRaWAN® solutions integrate with building management systems, cloud platforms, and IoT applications via BACnet, Modbus, or REST/MQTT. Particulate readings, threshold events, trend data, and device status can be made available to building and maintenance applications, linking measured air quality with filter servicing schedules, work order generation, and compliance reporting instead of keeping air quality separate.

Every Environment Covered with TEKTELIC Sensors

From classrooms to cleanrooms, filtration performance affects cost, comfort, and compliance differently in every building. Wireless, battery-powered sensors adapt to each space and provide its own evidence base.

Frequently-asked questions

It is an approach in which continuous particulate sensors measure PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 in occupied zones and at HVAC monitoring points, so that filtration performance can be assessed based on measured air quality rather than a fixed replacement schedule.

Particulate matter is airborne solid and liquid particles, classified by size in micrometers. Larger PM10 particles are captured by most filters, while finer PM1 and PM2.5 particles pass more easily through lower-grade media. Tracking all three shows not just how much is in the air, but which particle sizes your filtration is and isn’t handling.

AERIS provides the particulate measurement at the core of the application. Deployments often add BREEZE or BREEZE-V for CO₂ and occupancy context, and COMFORT v2 for room conditions, so teams can distinguish filtration problems from ventilation or occupancy load.

Placement depends on what you want to learn. Representative occupied zones show what filtration delivers to people, while HVAC monitoring points show particulate behavior closer to the air-handling system. Many deployments use both to separate filtration performance from local particulate sources.

It provides the evidence needed to move toward condition-based servicing. Most teams set a maximum interval for compliance or warranty reasons, then use the data to adjust timing within that interval and to detect deterioration between services.

That depends on the space, the air change rate, and the particulate sources present. Comparing trends before and after the change is more reliable than a single reading immediately afterward.

No. LoRaWAN® sensors communicate through a LoRaWAN® gateway rather than over Wi-Fi or Ethernet. This enables reliable building-wide coverage while reducing infrastructure costs and simplifying installation.

Yes. TEKTELIC LoRaWAN® solutions can integrate with building management systems, cloud platforms, and IoT applications via BACnet, Modbus, or REST/MQTT, allowing facilities teams to automate ventilation, monitor conditions, and receive real-time alerts.
