Indoor air quality testing is the process of assessing and evaluating the quality of the air inside a building or enclosed space. It involves measuring various parameters and pollutants that can affect the air quality and potentially impact the health and well-being of the occupants.
Importance of Indoor Air Quality: Indoor air quality is crucial because most people spend a significant amount of time indoors, whether at home, work, or other buildings. Poor indoor air quality can lead to discomfort, allergies, respiratory issues, and other health problems.
Common Indoor Air Pollutants: Indoor air can contain a variety of pollutants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), mold, bacteria, allergens, particulate matter (such as dust and pollen), carbon monoxide (CO), radon, and formaldehyde, among others.
Testing Parameters: Indoor air quality testing typically involves measuring and assessing several parameters, including temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide (CO2) levels, particulate matter (PM) concentrations, VOC levels, and the presence of specific pollutants based on the suspected sources or concerns.
