Commercial / Institutional Indoor Environmental Quality Assessments

The basic commercial / institutional Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) assessment is designed to include, as a minimum, four primary indicators. Testing includes the carbon dioxide determination, as a surrogate indicator of the adequacy of the outside air supply to the structure; carbon monoxide determination, as applicable, from nearby parking garage or other vehicular traffic areas; airborne particulate count and sizing, as an indicator of the performance of the air-handling unit at cleaning the air; and temperature/humidity determinations compared with the ASHRAE comfort criteria. The report of results and findings will include graphical illustrations to aide in the understanding of the data, as presented below.
