I am the Health & Safety Coordinator for ISPA Store Fixtures, a millwork company based in Georgetown, ON. Although this is my official job title, I wear many hats in this role and as such, have responsibility for investigating areas outside of the realm of Health & Safety, including, (CSR) Corporate Social Responsibility as well as environmental and sustainability issues relating to our business.

In May 2013 I attended a workshop called Dollars to Sense which was geared to help businesses identify cost saving opportunities through increased energy efficiency. The workshop was very illuminating and shone the light on a number of areas in our business where we could reap the benefits of improvements in technology, as regards improved efficiencies and demand reduction.

One of the most staggering examples illustrated was the cost of compressed air. Compressed air is a vital component of the millwork industry as it powers most hand tools, saws, and machines and is also used for spraying and drying paints and adhesives and cleaning surfaces of dust and debris.

The new compressed air system is very efficient and extremely quiet. Our staff have been delighted that the noisy old compressor has been replaced by these virtually silent machines. It has really improved the quality of the working environment.

As a project engineer involved with providing customers with conveyor systems, one of the responsibilities that I quite often have involves supplying the customer with an appropriate air compressor, dryer, and air receiver tank to supply air to our system. My projects generally include the supply of air compressors ranging between 10 to 50 hp.

I have asked my customers several times what they have thought of the Kaeser compressors that we supplied to them and have always heard only good things back. Typical comments from our customers center around how quiet the compressor is, how easy it is to use, the flexibility that it has in terms of programming, and how helpful the service staff has been. It came as no surprise to me when a new customer that I was working with actually specified that the compressor we supply them with was to be a Kaeser compressor.

Personally, I have enjoyed working with the staff at Air Solutions They respond to any of my concerns quickly and help to make the compressor part of my projects stress free.

It was my pleasure working with the professionals at Air Solutions during our Toronto service center installation. I sourced Air Solutions to provide and install a twin 50hp Kaeser Compressor system that included a ring main in the rafters with 7 drops.

Air Solutions went above and beyond to understand our needs and support the installation. Peter Gray was an outstanding and knowledgeable resource to help with our unique installation challenges. Always professional and cool under pressure, Peter has the unique ability to see around corners. The team at Air Solutions went out of their way to be part of the solution to any problem that we had.

When the General Contractor electricians damaged the dryer unit while hooking up the electrical panel, Air Solutions was there to offer a solution to fix the issue even though they were not the ones who caused the problem. There was no finger pointing from the Air Solutions team, only a can do attitude that got us up and running with no down time.

I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you and your staff for the ongoing service that we at CIBA Vision have had over the last 5 -6 years. Our Kaeser compressors have been one of the best investments we have made in a while.

Our costs for running time have decreased dramatically and the costs of maintenance and repair have also shown a major decrease. Your staff has been a joy to work with and your service department always clean and courteous, not to mention knowledgable.

It gives me great relief to know that I don’t have to always be on top of my schedule, your staff is always there for my assistance. I look forward to working with you and the staff at Air Solutions into the future.

Jim Lake, Facilities and Plant Services Supervisor

Polycon Industries has used Air Solutions for replacement filters for the past 4 years. I find the staff at Air Solutions friendly and helpful every time I have contacted them.

The quality of service and knowledge is execllent. The pricing of the filters has provided a great cost savings to Polycon over the past 4 years. I can highly recommend this company for all your filter needs.
