Indoor Air Quality

  • Indoor Air Quality - Case Study 1

    Faced with spending over $ 1 million in costly groundwater and soil remediation, Apex successfully negotiated with regulatory agencies on behalf of its REIT client for the much less expensive vapor intrusion risk-based closure of a commercial property contaminated by dry cleaning chemicals.

  • Indoor Air Quality - Case Study 2

    With Apex on-call, a quasi-government agency is able to keep its 24-hour, 7 day a week operation going in the midst of any indoor air quality crisis. Apex routinely provides emergency response to multiple facilities to address and resolve potential mold and infectious bacteria resulting from water intrusion and sewage failure. Our scientists and technicians mobilize quickly to identify and mitigate indoor air quality risks and alleviate workforce concerns without interfering with agency operations.

  • Indoor Air Quality - Case Study 3

    In order to build and finalize a 30-year lease agreement with the federal government, a national commercial developer contracted Apex to meet strict IAQ requirements. Apex was on-site during construction of the high rise office building, evaluating building materials and construction processes to ensure the finished product would meet the lease agreement standards for a healthy building.  Not only did Apex help our client to meet lease requirements, our testing and evaluation will minimize the potential for future IAQ issues.
