In addition to achieving the RESET CS requirement, the comprehensive monitoring system allows the facility team to pro-actively operate the building based on the real time needs and troubleshoot potential problems before they reach tenant levels. Sensors are installed pre and post air treatment at mechanical levels and on main supplies at every floor.

PureLiving also designed and provided the system consisting of over 100 monitors within the HVAC system. The CS certification for One Museum Place required installing monitors to cover 30% of the delivered air volume, however the Hines team decided to go one step further and commissioned sufficient monitors to cover all floors.

The company also acted as the RESET AP (accredited professional) to guide the Hines team through the certification process and designed the monitoring system for the building. PureLiving Indoor Environmental Solutions has been designing air filtration, ventilation and monitoring systems for over ten years across Asia, and was delighted to work with the Hines team on such a prestigious project. – Jim Morrison Senior Managing Director, Hines China Jim Morrison Senior Managing Director, Hines China RESET as a performance-based, technology-driven building certification aligns perfectly with Hines’ business philosophy of creating and managing ‘Intelligent Real Estate Investments’. This is extremely valuable for us since we have noticed that an increasing number of people have expressed an interest in indoor air quality. Different from other building certifications, RESET’s focus on continuous monitoring of indoor air quality will help us ensure our staff are in a healthy environment. Hines is pleased to lead the market with RESET Air Certification in One Museum Place – both in the building as well as our office. The certification doesn’t mandate how one goes about achieving the required air quality targets, but does require the building to be installed with real time sensors measuring CO2, particulate matter, TVOC, temperature, and relative humidity, and only after a three-month period of compliance to the air quality target is certification awarded. Real-time results help owners attract better tenants, maintain asset value and reduce the potential liability associated with underperforming buildings.
