This is a great tool for estimating the impacts of air cleaners in nat vent UK schools. Unlike most air cleaner selection tools which just size on clean air delivery rate CHEPA also considers the energy aspects depending on local climate.
📢 Introducing CHEPA: a free tool for #schools and local authorities.

Calculate how a #HEPAfilter would affect your classroom #AirQuality and energy use.

✔️ Co-designed with schools
✔️ Easy-to-use
✔️ Evidence-based
✔️ Classroom-specific results

Outdoor air is the biggest driver of particles in #ClassroomAir. Closing windows doesn't always help but air filters can.
