Indoor air quality (IAQ) solutions through WTI/Pure Air Control Services™ can help public entities improve IAQ through environmental consulting, building diagnostics and laboratory services, HVAC system hygienic cleaning, sanitizing and remediation, and air quality remediation and purification.
Prioritizing indoor air quality is not just a matter of compliance, it’s an investment in the health and performance of building occupants. By taking a proactive approach, facility managers can ensure that their buildings are well-prepared with optimal indoor air quality and a healthy and functioning HVAC system.
As school districts struggle with passing levies, staffing shortages, rising costs, and other challenges, operations and finance personnel tasked with maintaining their buildings must understand the funding opportunities available to protect their facilities fully. Understanding how to leverage available ESSER funds and what facility work applies will help school officials extend the life of their building assets within budget constraints.

- We offer low and no-odor options for minimal disruption.
- Our fluid-applied restoration systems go on quickly and easily for efficient installation, resulting in lower labor costs.
- You can meet sustainability goals by reducing landfill waste from failed roof materials.
- Our white roof systems are the definition of cool, meaning they look great and reflect the sun to reduce energy use.
- We’ve rewritten the meaning of “warranty,” so there’s no question your restored roof is covered for life.
- Our restoration systems can be repeatedly restored so that roof performance can be extended for the life of the building.

Do your roofs meet current safety requirements? If you’re like most building owners, you may not be entirely sure about current safety requirements, especially as OSHA regulations continue to evolve. Today, OSHA requires building owners to protect people from falls while accessing exterior facility levels, traversing roof areas with openings, encountering hazards or exposed edges, and working on rooftop equipment located adjacent to the roof edge. You can learn more about OSHA's standards for fall protection compliance by downloading our white paper.
