As construction projects near completion, the focus shifts from building performance to occupant health. One critical step before turnover is validating Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) -especially for projects pursuing LEED certification. This is where Polygon plays an important supporting role.

Containment is an essential yet often overlooked part of construction and a key factor in temporary climate control. It can be set up during pre-construction or in the active build phase, depending on project scope, risks, and environment.

The high-rise construction sector in the United States is experiencing a sustained boom, driven by growing urban populations, housing shortages, and increased demand for multi-family developments. Nationwide construction remains strong, with developers focused on maximizing land use and accommodating urban growth.

With thousands of climate control equipment models and manufacturers on the market, it can be challenging to know where to start. This guide provides a high-level overview of the core equipment categories, their typical uses, and key considerations. It’s a helpful resource for anyone involved in specifying climate requirements, sourcing equipment, managing power, or tracking sustainability on the job site.

New technology and techniques are giving project teams more visibility and control of jobsite conditions compared to traditional approaches like hand-held devices, off-the-shelf sensors, and standalone equipment. Top general contractors are using real-time connected systems made up of sensors and smart equipment to proactively manage environmental specifications, accelerate dry time, meet finished good warranties, and reduce overall operational costs and risk.
