LEED Accreditation Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Testing Services

Understanding the current quality of your indoor air is the first step in determining the best methods for its improvement. ACT’s environmental services include critical IAQ testing to identify any issues that contribute to poor air quality.

Our comprehensive testing includes tests for mold, hazardous materials, lead, and other particulates. When we find a problem, we deliver integrated services that either remove or remediate the problem and maintain, restore, or replace any systems responsible for the hazard.

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is fundamental in ACT’s IAQ services. ACT is LEED-certified for air quality testing and design. That means our testing is reviewed by an independent lab. By conducting LEED-certified air quality testing and system design, ACT is equipped to help you achieve LEED-certification, regardless of what steps your company may be in the process. Whether it’s new construction or existing building renovation, both are eligible for certification.
