Frequently Asked Questions about IAQ and IEQ
Q: What standards and compliance guidelines do you follow?
A: G2 Consultants follows established federal, state, and industry standards to ensure thorough and defensible IAQ evaluations. Our work aligns with:
- ASHRAE 62.1 (Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality)
- EPA Indoor Air Quality Guidelines
- NIOSH and OSHA exposure recommendations for workplace air contaminants
- AIHA (American Industrial Hygiene Association) best practices for indoor environmental quality investigations
These frameworks guide our sampling, analysis, and reporting to help clients stay compliant and protect occupant health.
Q: How do we know if our facility should schedule IAQ testing?
A: Testing may be routine, event-driven, or symptom-based, depending on your facility.
Schedule IAQ testing if:
- You’ve had occupant complaints about odors, headaches, or respiratory issues
- The building has experienced water damage, renovation, or new material installation
- You operate in a regulated or high-occupancy environment (schools, healthcare, manufacturing)
- It’s been more than a year since your last assessment
Many organizations include IAQ testing in annual or biannual environmental health reviews.
Q: How long does it take to test the air quality in our building?
A: Most IAQ assessments are completed in one business day for standard facilities. Laboratory results are typically received within 3–5 business days, depending on the number of samples and testing methods required. Expedited analysis is often available for urgent health or compliance concerns at an additional cost. G2’s final report is generally delivered 5-7 business days following the receipt of the laboratory results.
Q: Is there a difference between IAQ and IEQ?
A: Yes. Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) focuses specifically on airborne contaminants, ventilation, and particulate matter. Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) takes a broader view, encompassing IAQ plus lighting, acoustics, thermal comfort, and overall occupant experience. G2 Consultants evaluates both, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of your building’s health and comfort performance.
Q: How often should we perform indoor air quality testing?
A: Routine IAQ testing is recommended annually or whenever significant changes occur in building occupancy, HVAC systems, or operations. Facilities with known air quality issues, manufacturing processes, or sensitive populations may benefit from semiannual testing or continuous monitoring programs.
Q: Does G2 Consultants handle remediation and retesting?
A: G2 Consultants provides independent assessments, oversight, and post-remediation verification but does not perform direct remediation. We collaborate with trusted, certified contractors and perform clearance testing to verify that all corrective measures meet regulatory and health-based standards.
