About Odor Assessments
The perception of the indoor
air quality by individuals is also related to odors within buildings
and homes. Some humans have the ability to sense odors at very low
thresholds. Because odors are subjective in nature, and the odor
sensitivity varies amongst individuals it is not unusual for some
individuals to express dissatisfaction while others will not complain.
Individuals often times associate malodors (offensive or unpleasant
odor) with their health, which may or may not be the case.
In any event, individuals expressing dissatisfaction as a result
of a malodors are likely to result in an in indoor air quality complaint.
In some cases the identification of an odor can be relatively easy
if the source is readily identified. However the source of some
odors can be elusive and resolving these type of odor problems may
require more time and in some cases the use of sophisticated air
sampling tools.
Enviro Team North America has significant experience in assessing
malodors from both outdoor environments and indoor environments.
It is our past experience that allows us to resolve many of the
odor problems that building owners encounter. Our approach to assessing
indoor environments for odors usually begins with an initial phone
discussion with our client. In some cases we are able to assist
our client over the phone without incurring any additional cost.
More complex odor problems may be addressed by conducting a site
investigation and in some cases may require the use of specific
or general air testing parameters. Enviro Team North America maintains
direct reading air testing instrumentation which can be utilized
in the field. Although somewhat rare, air sampling methodologies
requiring off-site lab analysis can be performed also.
