Indoor Air Quality Testing in Dallas-Fort Worth
Indoor air quality (IAQ) refers to the measurement of indoor air quality within a building and its impact on the health and well-being of its occupants. During an inspection of a home, business or other facility, our team provides comprehensive assessments of the biological contaminants, chemical pollutants and particulate matter that negatively affect people’s health, well-being and productivity.
Whether your indoor environment is exposed to traffic emissions, construction activity, seasonal pollen or water damage, an air quality inspection can pinpoint these sources and document the changes needed to remedy the situation. This air quality test helps homeowners, remediation contractors, construction workers and HVAC contractors.
What We Measure During an Indoor Air Quality Inspection
The air quality inspectors at Barrett Environmental will go room-by-room, carefully testing for a range of IAQ parameters. Here are the most common air pollutants and comfort scores we measure.
- Environmental Conditions – Temperature and relative humidity.
- Gases – CO (carbon monoxide) and CO₂ (carbon dioxide).
- Particulate Matter – PM10, PM2.5, PM1.0.
- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) – Total VOCs from furnishings, finishes and cleaners.

Common Questions About Indoor Air Quality Inspections
What are common signs of bad indoor air quality in a home or office?
Common signs of bad indoor air quality in a home or office include strong and persistent odors, visible mold growth, excessive dust, and condensation on windows. You may also experience headaches, respiratory issues, fatigue and allergy symptoms that improve when you leave the property.
Can poor indoor air quality trigger asthma and allergy symptoms?
Poor indoor air quality often triggers asthma and allergy symptoms such as sneezing, coughing, wheezing and even difficulty breathing. Common indoor pollutants responsible for triggering symptoms include dust mites, mold spores, pet dander and chemical pollutants.
