Future Middlebury College Dormitory with AppliedSensor iAQ-Engine Provides Real-Time Indoor Air Quality Data

Warren, New Jersey (PRWEB) January 04, 2012

AppliedSensor, a designer and manufacturer of chemical sensor components, announced today that its iAQ-engine intelligent Indoor Air Quality Module is installed in Middlebury College?s Self-Reliance solar-powered house to provide real-time indoor air quality data to future student residents. After placing fourth in the 2011 U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Solar Decathlon Competition held in Washington, D.C. in October, the energy-efficient house was transported back to Middlebury College in Vermont, where it will serve as a student dorm.


?We incorporated AppliedSensor?s IAQ-engine in Self-Reliance as we feel it is a great product. This project demonstrates how indoor air quality can be monitored and superior IAQ achieved in a virtually airtight, super-insulated home,? said Peter Schneider, an energy consultant with Efficiency Vermont.


The iAQ-engine?s sensor, located in the main living space of the Self-Reliance dormitory, will track indoor air quality every minute. Collected data will be displayed online and on a dashboard in the dorm?s kitchen. This will enable student residents to monitor the quality of their indoor air in real time and adjust the ventilation system as needed. Full indoor air quality data will be available from Efficiency Vermont later this year.


?Conserving energy and providing high-quality indoor air is essential. We commend Efficiency Vermont and Middlebury College for their dedication to this innovative project,? said AppliedSensor, Inc. CEO Tom Aiken. ?In the coming year, AppliedSensor will continue to work with organizations dedicated to reducing utility costs and providing healthier air for occupants of residential and commercial buildings.?
