Indoor Air Quality Testing

When do you need to arrange an air quality test?

How healthy is your building? A professional indoor air quality test will reveal all. Clean, safe air matters more than ever thanks to the pandemic, which has highlighted major ongoing failings in ventilation across the board. When the air is good quality it keeps people healthy, drives better productivity, and results in fewer sick days. If your premises are suffering from Sick Building Syndrome, fixing the issue can deliver dramatic improvements in productivity.

When air quality goes wrong

The global air pollution problem affects the UK, with many of our towns and cities a lot more polluted than the WHO recommends is safe. Mechanical ventilation systems can pull outdoor pollutants from car exhausts and industry indoors, leaving people at risk of health problems from Nitrogen Dioxide and Sulphur Dioxide. If the ventilation is poor, increasing CO2 levels and a lack of oxygen can affect people’s performance, leaving your employees feeling – and performing – under par.

Our tests take into account:

Particulates (PM10 and PM2.5)
Nitrogen Dioxide
Sulphur Dioxide
Allergens
Mould
Radon
Ozone
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCS)
Carbon Dioxide
Pollutants that might combust

Is there a way to test indoor air quality?

Yes. We use sensitive calibrated testing equipment including monitors to find and count particulate matter, and gas samplers to place in a variety of positions in rooms without disturbing the workflow. We test over a specified time-frame to make sure the exposure levels we collect are accurate, simply because they can vary widely throughout the working day.

What are the benefits of indoor air quality testing?

Indoor testing of air quality means you keep employees, visitors, clients and suppliers who visit your place safe from dangerous substances in the air they breathe. An air quality asbestos test is specific to asbestos, other tests search for a multitude of unpleasant and dangerous substances. Because the way people feel at work affects their mood, health, and productivity, providing clean air can ultimately boost your profits. It can also help keep you safe from legal action taken by employees and avoid trouble from the Health and Safety Executive. And it makes the premises more desirable if you want to let or sell it.
