How It Works
About Smart Filtration Management
Smart Filtration Management is ARM Environments’ data-led solution to one of the most overlooked energy and air quality challenges in building management: filter replacement timing.
Traditional filter maintenance relies on fixed schedules or waiting until a magnehelic gauge signals a blockage — by which point, the filter has already been driving up energy use for weeks. Delays in procurement and installation only extend the inefficiency.
Our service solves this. We install remote sensors to monitor pressure drop across both pre-filters and final filters in real time. When pressure begins to rise – indicating the filter is reaching the point where airflow restriction outweighs dust capture – we automatically dispatch ISO 16890-certified replacement filters to site.
This ensures filters are changed only when needed: not too early, not too late. The result is lower fan energy use, fewer callouts, and consistently high air quality with minimal intervention from FM teams.
