In recent years, conditions related to the comfort and safety of the workplace have become a major issue. Corporate employers are being confronted with concerns and complaints from employees regarding the quality of indoor air. In the past, attempts at energy conservation have resulted in buildings with inadequate means of ventilation for safe working conditions. Indoor air quality testing in the office environment is one of the sampling techniques used by Air Earth & Water Environmental Consultants Ltd. to provide corporate clients with information on the comfort level in the interior environment.

Typical services included in `indoor air quality assessment' include:

• physical air parameters including temperature and humidity
• monitoring for oxygen deficiency
• monitoring carbon dioxide as a means of tracking ventilation efficiency
• gaseous sampling for carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, ozone, Formaldehyde and a wide range of other compounds
• sampling for the presence of potentially harmful volatile organic carbon (VOC’s) and other organic substances at trace concentrations
• fibre sampling and identification, asbestos or other fibres
• mould and bacterial sampling for counts and identification

Air Earth & Water Environmental Consultants Ltd. recognizes that each building presents its own unique set of problems, and requires an individually designed program to identify them. If problem areas are identified, our technical team can propose a cost-effective, logical course of action in order to alleviate these conditions.
