AirBox Indoor Air Quality Testing

Find out what’s in your air.

What is AirBox Indoor Air Quality Testing?

The objective of the AirBox Indoor Air Quality Testing is to conduct a thorough examination of indoor air quality within client facilities, with a primary focus on identifying key contaminants of concern (COCs). These studies are rooted in the latest scientific research pertaining to contaminants typically found in industrial or commercial settings.

To ensure the accuracy and relevance of our findings, our Analytical Science Group adheres to the most up-to-date guidelines and requirements provided by ASHRAE Standards. These standards are widely acknowledged for their stringent criteria for maintaining optimal indoor environmental quality.

The AirBox strategy involves utilizing technicians equipped with advanced portable sensors to detect a wide range of indoor air contaminants with high precision. This technology allows for real-time monitoring and analysis, offering detailed insights into the types and concentrations of contaminants present.

Additionally, we enhance our on-site sensor data with comprehensive laboratory measurements. Our analyses will provide a deeper understanding of the identified contaminants, giving a more nuanced perspective on indoor air quality in various environments. By combining cutting-edge sensor technology with detailed third-party laboratory analysis, AirBox ensures an accurate indoor air quality test in commercial spaces.

IAQ Testing in
4 simple steps

Our data-driven Indoor Air Quality Testing services takes the guesswork out of what’s going on with your air.
It tells you exactly what contaminants are in your indoor air and their concentrations. These steps will lead you
from guessing to knowing—and from dirty, unhealthy air to clean.

STEP 1

Floor plan submittal and proposal

You need an accurate picture of indoor air contaminants. That’s why the AirBox IAQ Testing process has you submit a floor plan first. Our Analytical Science Group will then recommend the best sampling points in the facility.

STEP 2

Analytical Science Group testing

AirBox analytical technicians, led by our LEED accredited Environmental Scientist, will provide quantitative testing of particulate and gaseous contaminants. We use highly calibrated sensors and air sampling diagnostic equipment to provide the most accurate results.

STEP 3

Lab analyses and data reporting

We combine data from our cutting-edge sensor technology with in-depth lab analysis performed by an accredited third-party lab to ensure a comprehensive, accurate test of indoor air quality. This points the way for effective strategies to mitigate the identified contaminants.

STEP 4

Improved indoor air solutions

The results of the IAQ testing are then reviewed by our Analytical Science Group and Engineering Group to provide science-backed strategies to effectively improve the indoor air quality of your facility.
