Frequently asked questions.
You should schedule air quality testing in Montreal if you notice any of the following:
- Strange odours in your home or building
- Respiratory symptoms that last longer than two weeks
In addition, you should schedule air quality testing for asbestos and mould if you plan to purchase or sell a new home, break a lease, or need to settle a legal dispute involving health conditions in the workplace.
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) refer to chemical compounds emitted from motor vehicles, paint, and several other sources. Without proper air circulation, VOCs can cause respiratory problems and eye irritation.
As mentioned earlier, the scope of testing will determine how long the testing of areas will take. It may be that you only need one sample taken in one room. It could be you are doing a multi-level apartment building renovation where many samples will need to be completed. It all depends on the scope of work being completed. Once the samples are taken and sent to the laboratory, the turnaround time for results are quite quick, requiring 48 hours for the laboratory to get their results. This again depends on the scope of work. Contacting Air Quality Testing to do an inspection is the best way to get an accurate timeline of what is needed.
