What is indoor air quality (IAQ) testing?
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) testing is the process of measuring and evaluating air quality inside buildings to ensure a healthy and safe environment for occupants. IAQ testing helps identify airborne contaminants, ventilation issues, and environmental conditions that may affect employee health, comfort, and productivity.
In the India workplace context, IAQ testing is commonly conducted
in offices, manufacturing facilities, hospitals, laboratories,
commercial buildings, and construction sites where indoor air
quality can be impacted by dust, chemicals, poor ventilation, or
HVAC system performance.
Indoor Air Quality testing typically includes monitoring of:
- Particulate Matter (PM2.5 & PM10)
- Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) and Carbon Monoxide (CO)
- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
- Temperature and Humidity
- Airborne dust and fumes
- Ventilation effectiveness
At Uniquo, IAQ testing is conducted using calibrated monitoring instruments at multiple locations within the facility. The collected data is analyzed against applicable Indian standards and occupational guidelines to identify potential risks.
Uniquo provides comprehensive IAQ reports along with recommendations to improve ventilation, reduce contaminants, and create healthier indoor environments for employees and occupants.
