Harrah's Entertainment Contracts With Aeris Environmental, Ltd.
With smoking laws in the forefront of future planning for casino executives everywhere, an important service contract has been awarded to Aeris Environmental Ltd. Harrah's Entertainment announced that Aeris' subsidiary Aeris Atlantic LLC has been contracted to install and operate AerisGuard, the company's air-conditioning performance solution, at Harrah's in Atlantic City.
Aeris Atlantic is expected to receive over $200,000 over the course of the twelve-month contract, and hopes to demonstrate a level of performance that will encourage Harrah's executives to expand the use of Aeris' services to the entire Harrah's chain. Aeris was selected after tests and trials show the Aeris system significantly improved airflow, air quality, and system efficiency.
Aeris Environmental is an Austalian-based company previously known as Aeris Technologies Ltd. The Air Conditioning division specialises in the environmental remediation and protection of commercial and residential air conditioning systems from biological contamination.
The casino in Atlantic City is the second-largest of the 48 worldwide casinos run by Harrah's Entertainment.
Air quality in casinos is a hot-button issue as smoking bans are passed in states throughout the U.S., and countries around the globe. Casinos have sought exemptions for these bans, and air cleanliness inside smoking casinos is certainly an important problem as casino managers seek to retain smoking freedoms. If it can be demonstrated smoke can be cleared quickly and efficently, casinos stand a much better chance of allowing smokers to continue to enjoy themselves fully.
