Operating rooms, sterile processing, and healthcare spaces demand precise humidity for patient safety, infection control, and regulatory compliance.
Talk to an engineerHealthcare facilities require precise humidity control in operating rooms, sterile processing departments, and patient care areas. ASHRAE and ANSI/ASHRAE/ASHE Standard 170 set specific humidity ranges that must be maintained.
Excess humidity in ORs increases infection risk, fogs surgical optics, and compromises sterile barrier packaging. Low humidity increases electrostatic discharge risk and patient discomfort.
Standard hospital HVAC systems often struggle to maintain the tight humidity windows required, especially in humid climates or during high outdoor air loads.
Our systems integrate with existing hospital HVAC infrastructure to provide supplemental dehumidification where standard systems fall short.
We work with healthcare facility engineers and MEP firms at the design stage to ensure humidity control meets both clinical requirements and energy efficiency goals.
