Ventilation and Filtration Assessment

Ventilation and Filtration Assessment

Ensuring optimal indoor air quality is critical for the health, productivity, and comfort of building occupants. Our Ventilation and filtration assessment services provide a detailed assessment of your building's ventilation performance, focusing on airflow dynamics, pollutant reduction, and filtration efficiency.

Leveraging state-of-the-art technologies such as SafeTraces and Poppy for HVAC verification and advanced biosafety monitoring, we deliver comprehensive, data-driven solutions tailored to your needs.

Service Overview

Initial Assessment and Consultation

Building Overview: We start by conducting a walkthrough and assessment of the building to understand its operational scope, usage patterns, and potential air quality challenges.

Preliminary Analysis: Analyze existing HVAC systems, air handling units (AHUs), ventilation distribution, and historical performance data to identify initial areas of concern or opportunity.

Comprehensive Ventilation and Airflow Evaluation

Airflow Distribution Testing: Measure air changes per hour (ACH) and evaluate air distribution patterns throughout the building to identify areas with inadequate ventilation.

 Air Quality Sampling and Monitoring:
Pollutant Level Testing: Measure particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), CO₂ levels, and other pollutants that can impact indoor air quality (IAQ).

Humidity and Temperature Control: Assess relative humidity and temperature control to optimize occupant comfort and minimize mold or microbial growth risks.

Technology Integration for Accurate Verification:
HVAC Performance Verification: Employ SafeTraces' innovative technology to evaluate and verify HVAC system performance. Using water-based tracers, this technology provides scientifically-backed data on airflow efficacy and contaminant removal, ensuring compliance with stringent IAQ and safety standards

Filtration Efficiency Assessment

Filter Type and Effectiveness Analysis: Evaluate the efficiency and appropriateness of existing filtration systems, including Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) and HEPA filters, based on building type and occupancy.

Recommendations for Filter Upgrades: Provide evidence-based recommendations for enhancing filtration systems, with options for upgraded filters or supplementary air purification devices to capture and remove airborne contaminants effectively.

Empowering Healthy Environments with Targeted Solutions and Validation

HVAC System Upgrades:

Recommend system adjustments, such as improved air intake controls, optimized ventilation rates, or upgrading ductwork configurations to enhance airflow distribution and pollutant removal.


Real-Time Monitoring Solutions:

Propose continuous IAQ monitoring solutions to ensure ongoing compliance with health and safety standards and to provide alerts for immediate action.


Energy Efficiency Strategies:

Balance enhanced IAQ measures with energy-saving initiatives, ensuring that your HVAC system maintains optimal performance while reducing operational costs.

Performance Verification:

Conduct follow-up testing to validate the effectiveness of implemented measures and demonstrate compliance with industry standards (e.g., ASHRAE, WELL, LEED).

Detailed Reporting and Analysis:

Provide comprehensive reports outlining findings, actions taken, and recommendations for continuous improvement, empowering clients to maintain healthy and productive indoor environments.
