Key Benefits
We listen... Any indoor air quality investigation should be
tailored to the individual situation and to the client's needs.
We discuss these factors with the client so as to be able to
provide a suitable response within a budget the client can live
with.
Ventilation system expertise...
Experts agree that a majority of indoor air quality complaint situations
involve the building ventilation systems. Our personnel are
highly experienced in ventilation system evaluation. Our
investigations include thorough inspections and evaluations
based on an understanding of both the ideal and actual
conditions within systems.
Wide ranging knowledge...
Performing a competent indoor air quality investigation
requires knowledge of many different disciplines, including mechanical engineering, physics, chemistry,
toxicology and microbiology. Our personnel have the expertise
necessary in all these fields, something few companies can
offer.
Emphasis on inspections...
Experts agree that initial surveys for indoor air quality
problems should focus on inspections rather than testing. Most
causes of IAQ problems are visible to the educated eye.
Extensive (and expensive) testing isn't usually necessary.
Less expensive tests where possible...
There is often more than one way of effectively performing tests for a
given contaminant when testing does need to be done. Where
possible we use the less expensive testing methods.
Unique methodology...
Machado Environmental has a unique methodology for conducting
indoor air quality investigations and the resolving of IAQ
problems. This methodology greatly increases the likelihood of a
positive resolution of the problem or reason for the
investigation while enabling us to minimize expenses. It is our
belief that an indoor air quality investigation should be aimed
at finding the actual reason for indoor air quality complaints.
Follow through...
Our reports not only provide answers as to what was found, but
an explanation of their significance, and close guidance in
necessary actions to the correction of deficiencies found. We
are specialists at providing plain English explanations and
bringing the client to an understanding of the situation and
what is necessary to resolve it. We can also specify scope of
work, assist in selecting contractors, and provide supervision
services for necessary remediation actions.
We truly care...
The staff at Machado Environmental genuinely care about the
clients they deal with and work to resolve problems with minimal
upset, intrusion, and expense. We are specialists in helping to
resolve the interpersonal conflicts that often accompany IAQ
complaint situations.
