Air testing company – how to choose?

Don’t know which air testing company to choose? There are a number of important factors that you need to consider before choosing an air testing company to perform air testing at your site. You need to consider if they are appropriately qualified with a science based background. The site testing requires an experienced scientist to perform the testing and prepare the report. This is not only a requirement due to the technical knowledge needed to undertake testing but also for the report to be able to hold up in a court of law.

Indoor air testing reports are commonly prepared when there has been a reported health complaint. An indoor air quality report is a risk assessment tool shows due diligence on behalf of the business owner. These reports can be called into court or tribunal as a defense for an employer. In order for a scientific report to be valid, it must be conducted by appropriately qualified scientists, with high quality NATA calibrated equipment and written by expert and qualified staff.

It is also important to know that the company you hire is completely independent, meaning they do not sell any other products as a result of the air testing report. This ensures unbiased reporting. This is also a requirement for a court of law or tribunal. There must be no conflict of interest or bias in scientific reports.

Finally, you should choose a company that is professional with a high level of experience, that is mindful of the sensitive nature of the work in regards to staff complaints, that keeps results confidential and works with you to correct any issues that your site may be facing. An air testing company should come back for follow up testing, if any corrective action has been recommended and implemented, to verify the site as having acceptable indoor air quality.
