Indoor air quality assessment in Melbourne
The air inside homes and workplaces can carry mould spores, dust, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other pollutants. An indoor air quality (IAQ) assessment measures what's there, finds where it's coming from, and tells you how to fix it.

What are you breathing in?
Poor indoor air quality can cause anything from headaches and fatigue to worsening asthma and allergies. In offices and high-rise buildings, occupants often report headaches, tiredness, irritated eyes and trouble concentrating, and the cause is frequently ventilation, moisture or a contaminated air-conditioning system.
We assess the indoor environment and the HVAC system, measure relevant pollutants including mould spores, particulates and VOCs, and look at ventilation and humidity. Where we suspect hazardous materials such as synthetic mineral fibres, we flag them for the right specialist testing.
For homes, IAQ assessments help families with asthma or allergies. For commercial buildings, they give facility managers the evidence to act on occupant complaints and maintain a healthy workplace.

- Staff or occupants with headaches, fatigue or irritated eyes

What does an indoor air quality assessment test for?
Typically mould spores, airborne particulates, VOCs, humidity and indicators of ventilation performance. The exact tests depend on the complaints and the building, and we agree the scope with you first.
Can poor air quality affect staff productivity?
Occupants in buildings with poor air quality commonly report headaches, fatigue and difficulty concentrating. An assessment gives you objective data to find and fix the cause.
Can air-conditioning spread mould?
Yes. If moisture builds up in an HVAC system, mould can grow in components and ducts and be spread through the building. An HVAC hygiene assessment checks for this.
Do you assess homes as well as commercial buildings?
Yes. Many of our residential IAQ assessments are for families dealing with asthma or allergies who want to know whether the home is contributing.
Do you test air quality in offices, schools and childcare centres?
Yes. We assess offices, schools, childcare centres, healthcare sites and other commercial buildings, usually after occupant complaints, water damage or mould remediation. Facility managers get a report with findings and prioritised fixes.
