Hotels

Get higher hotel ratings from guests with clean, filtered air as part of a superior customer and employee experience.

Easy check-in, fresh linens, room service … and clean air. In the hotel and hospitality industries, cleanliness isn’t just a perk – it’s a must-have.  Clean air, climate control and comfort rank high on guests’ concerns when they use hotels. Visitors can spend up to 90% of their time indoors, so high indoor air quality (IAQ) can make or break a hotel’s reputation, especially in highly polluted cities. 

Clean air challenges for hotels

  • A steady flow of particulate pollution, chemicals, gases and other contaminants drawn in from outside to corridors and right into guest rooms 
  • Odours from cleaning agents, smoke, water damage or renovation that cause air-quality problems and directly impact guests’ comfort and health
  • The presence of mold and bacteria in ductwork and behind walls, as well as off-gassing from carpets and furniture in the rooms themselves 
  • Increasing demand from the general public for allergy- or asthma-friendly accommodations
  • Diverse requirements for each hotel space – hotel kitchen, lobby, bar, garage, congress facility, individual rooms 

The benefits of purified air inside hotels

Camfil’s energy-efficient filters and air purifiers for hotels do more than simply filter out the air. They capture and eliminate contaminants ranging from odours, dust particles, allergens and bacteria to dangerous gases, chemicals and VOCs. Not only do they deliver clean air for high IAQ, but they help building owners reduce their energy consumption and carbon footprint.

  • Get more loyal customers and better rankings. Hotel visitors need to be productive at meetings and enjoy their leisure time. Clean air will help ensure their comfort, health and loyalty.
  • Save on energy costs. Air-conditioning and air comfort management can make up 15–20% of the total cost of running a hotel. Instead of cutting back on outdoor air volume, use energy-efficient air filters to improve IAQ. 
  • Spend less time cleaning. Our air filters and air purifiers will capture dust and prevent it from settling. Your rooms will be cleaner and require less cleaning overall.
  • Provide a healthy work environment. Filtered air can protect hotel staff from catching infections and contribute to their productivity.
