If your business depends on providing the public and workers with healthy air to breathe, you need to ensure that your professional air testing is up-to-date and accurate. Professional air quality testing can help identify harmful pollutants in the air, as well as assess the effects of potential health risks. By testing your business’ air quality regularly, you can help protect the public and workers from harmful air pollution and ensure a clean environment for everyone.

Indoor air quality (IAQ) testing should be conducted on a regular basis to ensure the air quality is within the recommended guidelines. Early detection of issues is easier to investigate and rectify. Professional air quality testing services should also be conducted in response to a complaint or illness. Common complaints include, dizziness, headaches, fatigue, respiratory problems, itching, and allergies.

There are numerous pollutants that can be tested for, and details of the complaint or illness should be recorded, communicated when choosing a consultant and investigated. The most common indoor air quality parameters that are testing for include:

thermal comfort
relative humidity
carbon dioxide
carbon monoxide
particulates
volatile organic compounds
airborne bacteria and fungi

IAQ Testing is also undertaken as part of a budling’s compliance program. This includes the National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS) Indoor Environment rating scheme as well as the WELL Performance verification program by the International WELL Building Institute. This requires a specialised set of skills and knowledge and is to be undertaken by professional scientists in the field.
