INDOOR AIR QUALITY (IAQ) TESTING
Understand What You’re Breathing
Indoor air quality directly impacts health, comfort, and long-term building performance. If you’re dealing with symptoms, suspect mould, or want clarity on your environment, Design 1 delivers data-driven IAQ assessments—not guesswork.
What We Test
Mould & Airborne Fungal Spores
- Non-viable air sampling (spore trap analysis)
- Identification of indoor vs outdoor sources
- Detection of hidden mould issues
Particulate Matter (PM)
- PM1, PM2.5, PM10 measurements
- Real-time monitoring of airborne particles
- Identification of dust, combustion, or fine particle issues
Indoor Air Quality Parameters
Using calibrated, professional-grade instrumentation:
- Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) – ventilation effectiveness
- Carbon Monoxide (CO) – safety risk
- Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOCs) – chemical exposure
- Temperature & Relative Humidity – mould risk conditions
Why Our Approach Is Different
1. Calibrated, Professional Equipment
2. Full Building Assessment
3. Data You Can Actually Use
Consumer devices give unreliable data. We use industry-grade, calibrated instruments suitable for defensible assessments.
- Visual inspection of all accessible areas
- Moisture and infrared scanning
- Identification of hidden problem areas
We don’t dump numbers on you. We tell you:
- What’s normal vs abnormal
- Whether mould is likely present
- What is driving your air quality issues
- Exactly what to do next
Common Reasons Clients Call Us
- Health symptoms with no clear cause
- Suspected mould (visible or hidden)
- Past water damage or flooding
- Poor air quality readings from home devices
- Real estate transactions or due diligence
- Tenant complaints or liability concerns
What You Get
- On-site inspection by trained IAQ professionals
- Air sampling and real-time monitoring
- Laboratory analysis (where applicable)
- Clear, structured report with findings and recommendations
Stop Guessing. Get Clarity.
Most people wait too long and rely on assumptions.
“It’s probably fine”
“It’s just humidity”
“The monitor said something weird”
That’s how problems get worse.
