Emergency Assets support your building needs with a wide variety of HVAC equipment on demand to meet your building system upgrade requirements to help reopen quickly and safely in the current environment. Carrier provides detailed site evaluations for critical areas of your facility. This helps to ensure that your system is able to meet your new ventilation and IAQ requirements to keep employees safe and healthy while you upgrade the HVAC system for the long-term.

Indoor Air Quality Assessment to test air quality and develop and implement upgrades to help ensure optimal filtration, ventilation, airflow, controls, etc. Carrier experts can also develop corporate-wide IAQ engineering standards and help implement them.

Wellness Services include International WELL Building Institute’s WELL building standard certification which improves building features – air, water, thermal, lighting, acoustics, etc. – that can positively impact human health and wellbeing. Carrier also conducts WELL performance testing to help ensure continued high-performance operations and to upgrade certification levels in response to demand related to the COVID-19 public health crisis.

Remote Energy Management connects your HVAC and other building systems to provide advanced cloud-based analytics that help optimize energy efficiency, equipment uptime, occupant comfort and operational productivity. Our digital services are based on actionable insights by CORTIX™ Building IoT platform. The platform acts autonomously on optimization opportunities or prompts the user to act through a mobile or desktop application.

Remote Airside Management provides continuous validation of IAQ parameters, periodic checks of equipment health and continuous airside commissioning, enabled by a 24x7 Command Center.

Security Services provide security solutions and upgrades to help ensure increased resilience and a healthier and safer working environment. These solutions include contactless access management, body temperature screening and video analytics, supported by connected services, remote monitoring and remote diagnostics.

Advanced Access Services helps better control site density by setting limits on the number of people allowed in a specific space and then prevents access once that number is met. Customers can also set up alerts for attempts to access blocked areas or reports for contact tracing to help maximize public health and safety. We also provide remote monitoring and other custom solutions to meet the new challenges of today.

Carrier Healthy Building Technologies

Carrier’s Healthy Buildings Program offers customers comprehensive, building-wide technology solutions for today’s reimagined environments. In addition to Carrier’s comprehensive HVAC, fire, security and controls product offering, the Healthy Buildings offering includes:

Healthy-Buildings-Products-Carrier-Infinity-Air-Purifier

Filtration technologies, available in new equipment and for retrofits, include various MERV filters, HEPA filters for particulate matter and the Infinity™ electrostatic filters for airborne pathogens. Carrier also offers devices using UVC light which are intended to target viruses and UV photocatalytic oxidation to help remove volatile organic compounds and improve IAQ.

OptiClean™ Negative Air Machine helps clean contaminated air and prevent it from spreading to different sections of a building. The machine can also be used as an air “scrubber” to pull air in, help remove contaminants and discharge cleaner air back into a room. There are various options to rent, purchase or finance these versatile air filtration machines.

Agion-coated 39M Air Handling Unit provides cost-effective IAQ improvement by minimizing the spread of infectious disease by inhibiting bacterial and microbial growth on the interior of the unit. Carrier’s Agion-coated interior panels of the 39M unit provide clean, long lasting anti-microbial protection. Agion is an anti-microbial compound composed primarily of silver ions which are released at a slow, steady rate helping to ensure protection for the life of the product.

ActivAir™ hybrid hydronic air terminal delivers increased ventilation and outside air – key infection control strategies relevant to the current public health crisis – in an energy-efficient way with low noise. This patented design combines a fan coil with an induction beam to provide superior comfort, high IAQ levels, low noise and high energy efficiency. It can be used for new buildings and retrofits in multiple applications.

Healthy-Buildings-Products-ALC-EnvironmentalIndex

Environmental Index™ Tool in our building automation platform enables building operators to manage temperature, humidity and CO₂ levels in a way that identifies and addresses healthy building performance issues. The tool computes all three factors into the numeric system to reflect one “comfort” score providing facility managers the ability to help ensure buildings don’t become less efficient and healthy as changes are made.

DirectKey™ mobile access solution has empowered millions of hotel guests to safely access their hotel rooms without contact by bypassing the front desk check-in and eliminating many traditional touch points in the process.

BlueDiamond™ touchless access enables building occupants to eliminate a significant number of access touch points through implementation of industry leading mobile credentialing technology, supporting a healthier and safer building.

MyWay™ building services mobile platform integrates HVAC, lighting, elevator and other system controls, touchless access, indoor location and other services for a safer and personalized occupant experience. This scalable technology platform enables building owners to not only provide mobile-based control of building systems but also operate the facility for a customized and safer environment.

Healthy-Buildings-Products-Fireworks-16x9

FireWorks® Incident Management Platform functions as a remote monitoring and control system for stand-alone buildings and expansive campuses alike. FireWorks can manage up to 8,000 Edwards fire alarm panels and is ready to provide coordinated, timely communications during threats in environments with diverse needs, including high-rise buildings, campuses and other globally dispersed organizations.
