505-543-8083 info@dekonenv.comThe Four Corners puts two loads on a building that most of the country does not carry at the same time. Spring wind drives fine soil into everything, and fire season pushes smoke across the region for weeks at a stretch. Buildings get sealed against both, which cuts outside air exactly when the inside air needs it most. The EPA has long noted that people spend roughly 90 percent of their time indoors, and that indoor concentrations of some pollutants run two to five times outdoor levels. In a building with an undersized outside-air setting and a return path nobody has looked at since it was commissioned, that gap gets wider.
Most commercial IAQ calls do not start with a reading. They start with a person — a tenant, a teacher, an employee — saying the air is wrong. The job is to turn that into something measurable.
Direct-reading instruments on site, laboratory analysis when the findings call for it.
Office and multi-tenant buildings where one mechanical system serves several leases and complaints land on the property manager. Schools and tribal and municipal facilities, where the report has to stand up in front of a board or an agency. Clinical and dental space, where air handling is part of the standard of care. Hotels, retail, and restaurants, where an odor becomes a public review overnight. And occupied buildings under renovation, where the question is whether construction dust is reaching the people still working in the building.
If the finding turns out to be mold or moisture, DEKON is licensed to do the remediation as well as the testing — see mold remediation, testing and indoor air quality. If you would rather keep the testing independent of any removal work, say so up front and the testing gets scoped on its own.
A single assessment answers a question at one point in time. For buildings that want a record rather than an answer, IAQ Shield is DEKON's scheduled program: monitoring visits on a set interval, a written report every visit, priority response when a reading moves or a complaint comes in, and a baseline to measure against year over year. It is sold by building. Call for a walkthrough and a scope before anything is quoted.
A walkthrough of the occupied space and the mechanical systems serving it, direct-reading measurements of carbon dioxide, airborne particulate, temperature and relative humidity at fixed points, a look at outside air delivery and return paths, and any laboratory sampling the findings justify. The deliverable is a written report with the readings, what they mean, and what to do about them — not a stack of lab sheets with no interpretation.
Carbon dioxide is used as a proxy for how much outside air a space is getting relative to how many people are in it. At the concentrations found in offices it is not usually a toxicity problem. A high reading points at underventilation, and underventilation is what makes a room feel stuffy and concentrates everything else in the air along with it. ASHRAE Standard 62.1 is the ventilation reference commonly applied to commercial buildings.
Yes. Post-renovation and post-construction air testing confirms that construction dust, and anything disturbed during the work, has been cleaned up before the space is reoccupied. DEKON also performs pre- and post-abatement clearance air monitoring on asbestos and lead projects, so a building that needed abatement during the renovation can be cleared and re-tested by the same crew.
Yes. DEKON is SAM.gov active (CAGE 1A8J1, UEI NARD6L7LPW3) and registered with the Navajo Nation ONTC, and performs a meaningful share of its work on Navajo Nation trust and allotted land. Gross receipts tax treatment on trust land is applied and documented correctly rather than guessed at, and reports are written to be handed to a board or an agency without translation.
With the complaint. What the symptom is, where in the building it happens, and when it happens — that is what decides where the readings get taken. Sampling everything everywhere produces a thick report and no answer, and it costs more. DEKON starts from the complaint and works back toward the mechanical system that explains it.
