As buildings have become more energy efficient, the quality of outside, fresh air introduced into the building has been reduced.  This general change, combined with the public's increasing awareness of health impacts related to the indoor environment has created a growing concern about indoor air quality.

Northern personnel have received specialized training in investigating indoor air quality.  Our staff includes Industrial Hygienists with several years’ experience in investigating indoor air complaints and IESO certification for residential mold inspections.

Successfully resolving indoor air concerns can be a difficult and complex task involving the investigation and assessment of a variety of potential sources of indoor air contaminants.  Through our familiarity with building ventilation system design and training in the potential sources of indoor air contaminants, we are able to provide thorough building inspection services targeted toward identifying potential problems in each facility.

We are experienced at utilizing a variety of air monitoring techniques including the use of sensitive instruments which can collect and log data over extended periods of time to identify trends in building air quality or potential problems with ventilation systems.
