Air quality inspection
SOCOTEC assesses the air quality in your building by means of an air quality inspection. We advise you on how to improve it, for example by cleaning the ventilation ducts.
As the owner of a building or employer you are responsible for healthy air in your building.
This has even been stipulated in the Dutch Working Conditions, article 6.2 Ventilation.

Our inspection techniques
For air measurements
MICROBIOLOGICAL
During a microbiological air inspection we check for bacteria, mould and yeast.
PHYSICAL
During a physical air inspection we measure the CO2 concentration, relative humidity and temperature.
CHEMICAL
We measure the chemical composition of the air in case of odours.
CAPACITY
With an airflow measurement we measure the blast capacity in accordance with the guidelines of the Building Code.
INSPECTIONS
We determine the level of maintenance of the air handling units and the airflow profiles. We check on how dirty the air ducts are by means of an endoscopic examination.
PARTICULATE MATTER
Particulate matter consists of particles that are not visible to the naked eye. However, that doesn’t mean that they aren’t there. Particulate matter is released amongst other things in traffic, when using gas ovens and also in industry. It can also be present in your building. Our engineers will determine whether your building is airtight and the capture quality of the filters in the air handling unit. In this way we can help you keep particulate matter outside your building.
CORONA
Sufficient fresh air is necessary in buildings to live and work in a healthy and safe environment. Ventilation is more important now than ever. Research has shown that good ventilation reduces the spread of pathogens such as COVID-19. How about the ventilation in your building? Is it safe for your tenants, colleagues and visitors?
SCHOOLS
At many schools the ventilation is not up to par. Our sensors monitor whether users can stay and work in the right conditions in the school building. A good CO2 level benefits the concentration and health of both pupils and teachers. The wireless SLIM.Sensoring technology make it possible to automatically measure temperature, relatively humidity and CO2.
