The Beacon School, Gurugram — A School That Chose to Breathe Clean

In a world where we carefully choose what our children eat, the books they read, and the uniforms they wear — there’s one thing we often overlook: the air they breathe every single day inside their classrooms.

At The Beacon School, Gurugram, a group of parents and staff members decided to change that. They took the initiative to make sure that every child, in every classroom, breathes clean, safe, and healthy air — because learning can only flourish where the environment is pure.

The Vision: Clean Air for Every Child

When the school opened its new campus in Gurugram, one concern echoed among the parents and staff — “How do we protect our children from the invisible dangers of polluted air?

They reached out to AIRTH, India’s clean air technology company founded by IIT Bombay & IISc Bangalore researchers, known for transforming ordinary ACs into powerful air purifiers. Together, they decided to make every classroom at The Beacon School a Clean Air Zone.

The Transformation

On 13th September 2025, the AIRTH team arrived early morning. By the end of that same day, the transformation was complete — 22 classrooms, 38 ACs (16 Cassette + 22 FCU) were upgraded with FILTRIX® smart filters, turning the entire school into a certified Clean Air Zone.

Real results from The Beacon School — PM2.5 and PM10 levels dropped by over 80% after AIRTH installation.

Clean Air at 1/8th the Cost

Installing one standard air purifier in each classroom would have cost nearly ₹80,000 per room. With AIRTH, the same results were achieved at just ₹10,000 per classroom (approx) — a fraction of the cost, with zero compromise on performance or comfort.

Average PM2.5 reduction: 83.3%
Average PM10 reduction: 82.7%
Post-installation AQI: Below 6 across all classrooms
Energy efficiency: Fully maintained cooling and comfort

AIRTH’s Filtration-as-a-Service model ensures periodic filter replacement, maintenance, and performance tracking — keeping the system efficient year-round.

The Impact: A Breath of Fresh Learning

Teachers now walk into fresher, cleaner classrooms. Students experience better concentration and fewer allergy complaints. Parents feel reassured — knowing that every breath their child takes in school is healthy, clean, and free from harmful dust, allergens, and microbes.

A Model for Every School

The Beacon School’s initiative is more than a project — it’s a movement. It’s proof that protecting children’s health doesn’t require massive budgets or complicated systems. All it needs is care, commitment, and the right technology.

A Thought for Every Parent

Every parent worries about their child’s diet, studies, and screen time — but how often do we think about the air they breathe for 6 hours every day inside the classroom?

If one school — The Beacon School, Gurugram — could transform every classroom into a Clean Air Zone in just one day, then every school can.

Because clean air is not a luxury. It’s not a facility. It’s a right — for every child, in every classroom.
