GPS Air Introduces smartIAQ™ at the 2025 AHR Expo in Orlando

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Feb. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- GPS Air is introducing smartIAQ™, the first intelligent clean air system that makes achieving ASHRAE's Indoor Air Quality Procedure (IAQP) simple while delivering equipment and energy cost savings. The system actively monitors and verifies air quality using an integrated solid-state sensor array aligned to ASHRAE 62.1, cleaning air on demand.

By safely reducing outdoor air requirements through advanced in-space air cleaning, smartIAQ delivers a true return on investment on day one by supporting smaller and simpler HVAC equipment designs. Utilizing smartIAQ for IAQP also reduces annual energy costs by up to $2 per square foot by lowering the air conditioning and heating loads. The filtration system, tested to ASHRAE Standards 52.2 and 145.2, lasts for over a year in typical applications.

GPS Air CEO Audwin Cash explains, "The IAQP could be the largest energy savings opportunity being overlooked in buildings today. smartIAQ cleans air on demand, like motion sensors for electric lighting. When contaminant levels are low and rooms are empty, the system automatically enters monitor mode, saving energy and extending filter life. When people enter and the air quality demands it, smartIAQ quietly ramps up and cleans the air supporting confident reduction in costly-to-condition outdoor airflow."

The system uses advanced solid-state sensors to monitor multiple air quality parameters, including TVOCs, CO₂, formaldehyde, NOx, and particles (PM_1.0, PM_2.5, PM_4.0, PM₁₀). Operating at whisper-quiet sound levels, smartIAQ integrates seamlessly into any indoor environment while providing comprehensive air cleaning through its integrated filtration and NPBI^® technology.

To support implementation, GPS Air has developed the smartIAQ Calculator, built from ASHRAE standards to prove compliance and demonstrate real equipment and energy savings, making the IAQP process as straightforward as the traditional Ventilation Rate Procedure. Featuring easy-to-select project location and HVAC configuration options, the smartIAQ calculator provides quick compliance checks to the standard while also showing equipment and energy savings estimates for nearly every project type.

This technology represents a significant advancement in achieving the IAQP, which ASHRAE validates as the preferred, more direct approach for indoor air quality in its 62.1-2019 Design Manual. smartIAQ takes the complexity and risk out of IAQP implementation while providing additional capacity for air cleaning when parameters like occupancy, outdoor air quality, or infection control requirements change.

GPS Air will be exhibiting at the AHR Expo in Orlando February 10^th – 12^th. Visit us at booth 8151to learn more about how smartIAQ can transform your building's indoor air quality while reducing energy costs.
