We’re proud to welcome FreshAir as a Gold Sponsor of the 2025 NHLA Technology Conference — a partner that’s helping hotels deliver cleaner, safer, and more consistent guest experiences. FreshAir brings molecular-level sensor technology to the hospitality industry, offering real-time detection of tobacco and marijuana smoke, vaping emissions, and other air-quality irritants.

Unlike traditional smoke detectors, FreshAir’s devices rely on patented PolySens® molecular sensors. These sensors bind specifically to the molecules found in tobacco and marijuana smoke — and ignore everything else like steam, dust, candles, or perfumes. Immediately upon detecting unwanted smoke, they send timestamped, tamper-proof alerts via WiFi to hotel teams, along with scientific data to support enforcement.

FreshAir also recently launched FreshAir Certified™, a wellness-focused, bookable room attribute. When a guest selects this option, the hotel can guarantee that the room has been continuously monitored and free of common air contaminants (including smoke) for at least 60 days prior to check-in. This not only delivers a differentiated, health-conscious stay — but also generates ancillary revenue without extra labor or complexity.

For operations, the sensors integrate seamlessly with existing PMS, housekeeping, key-lock, and guest messaging systems, enabling automated workflows for smoke enforcement, room cleaning, and billing. Their tamper-proof, plug-in design installs in just a few minutes and supports continuous, 24/7/365 monitoring.

At a time when health, wellness, and air quality are front of mind for guests, FreshAir’s technology empowers hoteliers to protect their property, reduce damage and cleaning costs, and maintain impeccable brand standards — all while enhancing guest trust and satisfaction. We’re excited to have FreshAir on board as we convene to explore the next frontier in smart, clean hospitality.
