High Performance Building Deep Dive Improved Air Quality via Underfloor Air Distribution We are committed to providing excellent air quality to all occupants of the Clifford L. Allenby Building. Fresh air will flow throughout the building from the open space below the floor. The air will stream into your workspace through swirl diffusers, which can be adjusted for individual comfort. This underfloor air system allows warmer exhaust air and pollutants to rise above the area occupied by employees, ensuring that the air you are breathing is always clean and fresh. The building’s high-performance ventilation systems, interior materials, and finishes go beyond industry and
LEED standards to create an environment that is as healthy and sustainable as possible. In particular, the carpet meets the rigorous sustainability and health requirements developed by the City of San Francisco, eliminating any chemicals of concern while including 45% recycled content.
Swirl Diffuser
We will perform an air quality test once the building is complete to check for common pollutants, certify our alignment with LEED standards, and verify the success of our sustainability strategies.
