1. find out the composition of the indoor air at your workplace with an office air analysis
A wide range of pollutants can accumulate in the office air, affecting the health and performance of employees. They can enter the body with every breath and cause health problems and a variety of symptoms. Stale air promotes many symptoms such as headaches, lack of concentration, respiratory or cardiovascular problems and thus causes fatigue, lack of concentration and therefore errors. It also promotes sick building syndrome, which accounts for an estimated 20 to 30 percent of sick days in the office.
In addition, pathogens quickly accumulate and spread in stale air. This results in increased absenteeism among your colleagues and employees and higher costs for the company. To avoid this, you should continuously check the air components, especially the carbon dioxide (CO₂) content. This value is a reliable parameter for stale air and the risk of pathogen transmission.
With an analysis of the room air, you can detect unfavorable climatic conditions at an early stage and identify air pollutants. Use an air measuring device to detect relevant air components such as humidity that is too high or too low, toxic gases or pollutants such as formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and particulates. An office air analysis with the air-Q air measuring device reveals potentially harmful substances in the air and provides you with a comprehensive picture of the air quality in your workplace. By detecting such pollutants at an early stage, you can avoid health problems in your team and protect colleagues with respiratory problems or allergies in particular.
2. how the air-Q office air analysis works
The air-Q helps you to identify and eliminate sources of danger in the room air. This allows you to ensure that there are no harmful substances in the office air that could affect the health of your employees. In addition to invisible causes of an unhealthy office climate, an indoor air analysis also uncovers behavioral patterns such as incorrect ventilation and can shed light on energy wastage caused by open windows or heating that is set too high.
Do you want to analyze the air quality in your office? Then the air-Q is the best choice. No other air measuring device offers you so many sensitive sensors, data-based evaluation and various alarms. Register an office air analysis with us. Enter your basic data. We will send you an air-Q pro measuring device with the appropriate sensors for your analysis project. On request, the measuring device is also available with special equipment, i.e. with special sensors. Thanks to the large number of sensors, the air-Q detects the components of the air, analyzes the indoor climate in real time and determines environmental influences with scientific precision.
Your professional office air analysis is just 3 steps away.
Receive & set up test device
As soon as you receive your air-Q pro incl. 14 sensors , your one-week test phase starts. We will send you the air measuring device ready for use, so all you have to do is set it up at the designated location and connect it to the power supply via cable. Your office air analysis starts immediately.
Test phase of the office air analysis
The air measuring device gives you free access to the live data of the air-Q via smartphone app & web app, so you can track all data and its development during the analysis. Various charts show you the composition of the air and the development of the air components in an easy-to-understand way. Two LED displays on the air-Q also show you the current air quality of two selected air components. A colored traffic light display tells you whether the occurrence of the air component is within the recommended limit values or whether you need to take action to improve the air quality by changing the air.
In the air-Q health index and the air-Q performance index, all measured variables are evaluated with regard to their health and performance aspects. The indexes show you how and to what extent the air quality may have a negative impact on your physical and mental performance. You can use this data to keep an eye on the effects of air quality on your health and performance at all times!
Professional data evaluation of the office air analysis
Once the test phase is complete, send the air measuring device back to us. Our air experts will now look at the data collected from all the measurement results and evaluate your data individually. You will then receive a clear summary of your data, including detailed explanations. Each of our analyses provides you with information on the measured pollution levels in a compact, informative report of approx. 3 to 5 pages. In addition, our data-based recommendations will reveal hidden productivity killers and provide you with all the important diagrams of measured values as well as tips for a better office air situation.
3. keep an eye on a wide range of air pollutants with the air-Q
For a meaningful office air analysis, the air-Q pro is available with 14 different sensors. This allows you to monitor a wide range of pollutants: particulates (PM₁ - PM₂,₅ - PM₁₀), carbon dioxide (CO₂), oxygen (O₂), sulphur dioxide (SO₂), volatile organic compounds (VOC), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), carbon monoxide (CO), ozone (O₃), hydrogen sulphide (H₂S), relative & absolute humidity, temperature (T), dew point (Td), air pressure (p), noise (Lp).
4. improve indoor air at the workplace - individual tips from our air-Q air experts
Our office air analysis uncovers pollutants in the air and helps you to avoid problematic behavior patterns in the future. As air experts, we know that every "air problem" should be solved individually. Nevertheless, we can give you a few general tips on how to improve the air quality in your workplace.
- Ventilate regularly: Ventilate several times a day - whenever the current air quality requires it.
- Use an air purifier: Air purifiers with HEPA filters remove particles such as dust, allergens and pollutants from the office air.
- Place plants: Houseplants, especially green plants, can improve air quality by absorbing pollutants and producing oxygen. In our experiment, we tested how plants affect air quality. You can find the results in our separate article.
- Detect & eliminate sources of pollutants: Sources of pollutants can be detected and eliminated by regularly monitoring the indoor air with an air measuring device.
- Control humidity: Indoor air that is too dry or too high can have a negative impact on well-being and health or promote mold growth. Ideally, you should ensure a humidity level of between 30 and 50 percent. Humidifiers or dehumidifiers can help if necessary. With the smart air-Q, you can even control these devices in your office as required.
- Regular cleaning: Reduce the concentration of allergens and dust particles by regularly vacuuming and dusting the office.
5 Focus on the costs and benefits of an office air analysis
Invest in your health and the health of your employees. Understand the cost of an office air analysis in relation to the long-term health benefits you get from evaluating the air quality and the associated tips for preventive measures . If you detect air pollutants at an early stage, you can act accordingly and avoid long-term costs, for example for building measures due to mold.
We recommend a continuous, long-term indoor air analysis with your own air-Q measuring device, as the composition of the indoor air changes daily due to various factors. This includes seasonal fluctuations due to heating air, increased temperatures, accumulated allergens or waves of illness. By measuring the office air not just once, but constantly, you can ensure a healthy indoor climate every working day.
From the very first office air analysis, it is worth buying your own measuring device - if you opt for our air-Q light with the basic equipment of 5 sensors.
