Air Change Rate Testing

Description

Air Change Rate Testing: We offer air change rate testing and air balancing in Singapore. Air flow meter and TSI balometer capture hood will be used to test ventilation system. Air change rate test and balancing helps to maintain comfort and improve air quality in indoor environment.

Occupants in indoor environment may notice unpleasant odor or may feel that the office space is warm and stuffy. Some employees complain about symptoms that happen at work place and go away when they leave work. Running nose, head ache, respiratory issues, cough, and shortness of breath can be symptoms of a more serious problem. Asthma and some causes of pneumonia have been linked to Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) problems. These are the some of the effects of poor IAQ ventilation system and has to be rectified immediately.

iScientific Pte Ltd assesses and provides documentation for the following:

• Room pressure differential test
• Supply air in cubic feet per minute at supply air diffuser
• Return air and exhaust air in cubic feet per minute at each diffuser
• Total supply air and total exhaust air
• Air change rate per hour in the office
• Total volume of the room – based on actual measurement
• Pass/Fail status based on ventilation requirements

We often have to be inside in poorly ventilated spaces, which can be detrimental to our health. It is important to have well-ventilated rooms at home and in the workplace. Here’s why.

Manage Pollutants

You may think that the air quality where you live isn’t great, but it is often the case that the air inside is more polluted than the air outside. A good ventilation system will help expel a build up of pollutants, bacteria, moisture and nasty whiffs such as body odor.

Proper Ventilation system

Unless you have a ventilation system in place, you have no control of the air flow in a building. Too much fresh air can mean costly energy bills, which is why good ventilation makes perfect sense in so many ways.

Moisture Control

Condensation can lead to mould and rotten surfaces – something you want to avoid. Damp conditions and condensation can cause health issues such as allergic reactions and respiratory problems for many people. Good ventilation will help reduce these risks.

Maintaining comfort parameters

When lots of people are in confined space, the environment can become hot and stuffy. A ventilated room will instantly be more comfortable – making for a more productive workplace.

Health Benefits

Indoor air pollution coupled with bad ventilation can lead to a number of health problems including headaches, allergies, asthma, rashes and sinusitis. All of which can be avoided with the installation of a good ventilation system.
