Earlier this summer, the CDC released guidance for reopening buildings that have spent a considerable portion of this year completely shut down or under reduced operation. As we approach the end of summer, Polygon would like to highlight some key elements from the document as schools and other buildings think about bringing employees and students back into buildings that may have been empty for months.

Is your HVAC system “leaking?” It’s most likely condensation. Condensation is a natural phenomenon that can seem harmless but lead to severe damage to equipment and materials.

As summer comes to a close, it’s time for many students, faculty, and staff to return to schools and universities for the fall semester. In a time where health and safety are paramount, air quality in schools is something that administrative teams should address should problems arise. If an HVAC system needs to be turned off for repairs or isn’t functioning properly, Polygon can equip your building with the equipment necessary to maintain healthy air quality while the HVAC is undergoing repairs.

The US healthcare industry is facing currently facing an unprecedented test, taking on record numbers of patients amidst the challenging conditions that come with a pandemic. While we have already covered the importance of temporary climate solutions for field hospitals and other temporary medical spaces, the healthcare industry can benefit from using temporary climate control for a different application.

You can’t think about a Texas summer without thinking about extreme heat. Across the Lone Star State, temperatures are ranging from the mid-80s to more than 100 degrees Fahrenheit. While some have the luxury of being able to wait out these soaring temperatures in a cool, insulated building (or maybe even a swimming pool), general contractors and construction crews have project deadlines to meet. The extreme conditions they are facing not only pose challenges to completing projects on time, but can also pose a risk for heat-related illnesses. Polygon is working with general contractors in Texas and across the US to make construction sites safer and create ambient conditions that prevent delays and protect finishes.
