wHY IS INDOOR AIR QUALITY important?

 Many may be unaware that whilst indoors, the indoor air quality can be polluted by a variety of factors. These factors, if not tackled appropriately, can have negative and lasting effects on an individual’s health. 

The team at BES is well-experienced with testing this and taking the appropriate steps to improve the overall air quality of your spaces 

How to measure indoor air quality? 

Our experts at BES will first assess the indoor air quality of each space for a variety of pollutants. This is done whilst taking into account the usage of the space. We do this because in some commercial spaces, the air quality can be affected differently depending on how it is used at a given time.  

Once the initial assessment is completed, our team will identify if there are any sources of pollution. We will undergo this part in both the internal and external spaces to ensure we’ve covered all areas and potential areas of concern.  

In addition, we analyze the HVAC systems you have in place and check their functionality. Equipment that has not been updated or is configured incorrectly can directly affect the air quality of a space, so this is an important step.  

After we’ve completed our investigation, we will then provide you with a detailed report. The report will outline the indoor space conditions as well as any recommendations for any issues.  

How can you improve indoor air quality? 

Our team will provide you with insights that are tailored to your specific spaces.  

Some people may not be aware of common factors that can impact their air quality. Here are some of the ways for you to improve the indoor air quality of your areas: 

  • If you have them, use your kitchen and bathroom fans. 

  • Open the windows regularly. 

  • Avoid smoking indoors or near indoor spaces to avoid chemical emissions. 

  • Keep your furniture away from areas that may reduce air flow, like in front of heating vents.
