Indoor Air Quality
The Interstate Companies have also established Air Quality Associates, Inc. (AQA) to provide a basic understanding of indoor air quality (IAQ) issues. The company’s desire is to educate our clients in IAQ issues and resolve these issues for them.
AQA is also designed to provide the customer with full indoor air quality sampling and mechanical systems assessments.
AQA has trained technicians to properly assess the project. After assessing the site, our technicians perform air sampling specifically for the project. Using the proper chain of custody, the collected samples are then sent to the laboratory for analysis.
AQA is your one-stop provider for your indoor air quality needs. For questions or additional information about Air Quality Associates, Inc. please contact:
