Investigating the major causes of poor indoor air quality:
Some of the more common pollutants found within buildings include:
- Carbon dioxide (CO2) from respiration
- Bacteria & moulds (HVAC system)
- Volatile organic compounds (cleaning products)
- Ozone (copy machines)
- Carbon monoxide (vehicle exhaust, tobacco smoke)
- Nitrogen oxides (vehicle exhaust)
- Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (tobacco smoke)
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems have a direct impact on indoor air quality. If not properly maintained, HVAC systems can themselves become pollutant sources e.g. legionella, moulds, and refrigerant gases. They may compound the problem by acting as a transport mechanism to distribute pollutants throughout a building. Good indoor air quality requires regular maintenance of a building's HVAC system. Other indoor environment tests include:
- Air velocity & flow rate
- Air exchanges per hour
- Sound levels
- Lighting levels (illuminance)
For a full list of all indoor air tests, please see the Indoor Air Tests page.
