About PureLiving

PureLiving is a leading indoor environmental consulting company with a simple mission: to help our clients create healthy homes and workplaces. Our expert team of building engineers, HVAC specialists, and environmental consultants advises clients on air and water quality, mold, asbestos and lead exposure issues and helps to improve their indoor environmental quality through testing to identify sources of pollution and then eliminating them. Our total range of solutions includes pollutant testing, design and installation of cutting-edge filtration systems, monitoring, and odor and chemical reduction.With operations in six cities across China, Hong Kong, and India, PureLiving is the industry’s provider of choice for assessment, engineering, implementation, and monitoring of indoor environmental quality.

PureLiving is delighted to have been awarded a Certificate of Merit from IFMA (International Facilities Management Association) at the Asia Pacific Facility Management Awards 2018 for our innovative air control technology, ECS (EcoControl System).

Awarded at the IFMA Hong Kong Chapter Annual Dinner this month, PureLiving was awarded the accolade for the Best Facility Management Technology category, in recognition of our advanced EcoControl System (ECS).

PureLiving’s ECS is a building management system that provides a single point of control for fresh air and filtration. The system works with sophisticated monitors to respond in real-time to air pollution levels and adjust the filtration system depending on the air quality This reduces operating costs and energy charges by only using the system when it is needed, while still maintaining healthy air quality.

ECS uses convenient, web-based access and controls to help extend filter life, reduce costs, and improve efficiency. We continue to improve the features available, with market-leading predictive HVAC maintenance and building health heat map functionality coming later this year.

The award winners were determined by a judging panel that included past Presidents of the IFMA Hong Kong Chapter, the Board of Directors from IFMA Hong Kong, the Head of FM from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, plus representatives from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).

Why do you need to monitor your indoor air?

Installing top quality air systems and technology is just the first step to ensuring clean air and a high quality indoor environment. To demonstrate to your staff, clients and guests that the indoor air is healthy, you need a reliable and accurate monitoring system.

Accurate, real-time monitor readings allow you to respond immediately to any issues in the building, demonstrate the high quality of your indoor air with confidence, and use data and analytics to really understand your indoor space.

Monitoring allows you to track the efficiency of your IAQ control system with real-time results and in-depth data, gather the IAQ data needed for green building certification, automate systems based on demand and changing air quality, allowing energy savings, and improve staff retention rates.

Cloud-based monitoring platform provides an easy way to manage your building’s environmental data. PureLiving offers data subscriptions through two of the leading providers: QLEAR™ and GAMS™. QLEAR™ is an integrated management system where data is collected, organized, and analyzed in real-time. As the leading indoor air quality cloudware for commercial real-estate, QLEAR offers a selection of services. Choosing Professional Subscription service will upgrade your Qlear account to Qlear Pro, which includes the most advanced data insights and monitor care.

PureLiving’s Pure-Qi™ air filtration units are now manufactured with HEPA filters, making the units more effective than ever. This upgrade in Pure-Qi filtration means our patented Pure-Qi™ units now offer better performance than ever, all for the same price.

A HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter is an extremely efficient filter which catches tiny, ultra-microscopic particles using a matrix of fibres. Contaminants both large and small are either caught or trapped by colliding with the fibres as they travel through the filter. HEPA filters trap an impressive 99.97% of particulates 0.3 microns or larger. A typical human hair is roughly 50–150 microns in diameter, so a HEPA filter is able to trap dust that is several hundred times thinner than a single hair.

PureLiving’s Pure-Qi™ air filtration units are extremely quiet, efficient, and can be installed in walls or ceilings as needed.  The patented Pure-Qi™ is now capable of removing 99.97% of particulates on a single pass, including smoke, PM2.5, and microbes. Pure-Qi™ offers different filter options to meet your pollutant situation, with filtration and fresh air available in the same unit. Pure-Qi can also be combined with air quality monitors and our award-winning EcoControl System (ECS) Advanced Air Quality Control to create a system which provides you with smart filtration automation.

Pure-Qi™ units are among the most efficient filtration options on the market and offer peace of mind that your indoor environment is healthy and your filtration system has market-leading efficiency. In less than 15 minutes, Pure-Qi™ can bring the quality of indoor air to US EPA standard of 35μg/m³ - it takes most portable purifiers an average of 45 minutes to reach the US EPA standard.

Now together with HEPA filters, a Pure-Qi™ filtration system is an effective and cost-efficient way to improve the indoor air in your home or workplace.
