airmid has a state of the art bio-medical facility with large scale climate controlled chambers where we specialise in key areas of concern for indoor air quality, including ultra-fine particles, virus, bacteria, mold and toxins (including endotoxin).

Our unique environmental chambers allow us to mimic indoor building environments and provide repeatable real time data regarding the impact of your dehumidifier on indoor air exposures and building occupant health.

For our dehumidifier clients we offer investigations in a uniquely integrated facility which combines molecular biology and state-of-the-art air sampling in highly developed environmental test chambers, where we can follow nominated viruses, bacteria, molds or other ultra-fine particles as they become air-borne and are distributed throughout the chamber, both in the presence and absence of the air conditioner under investigation.

Data generated in this manner will have a vastly greater degree of sensitivity and specifity than anything generated by conventional culture techniques. The technology also allows for quantification of residual micro-organism content within the air conditioner and its ability to shed, recirculate or capture any infective particles.

This helps our dehumidifier clients add value to their communication material and differentiate their customer offerings using world class marketing that can focus on bio-medical data, impact claims and indoor air quality.

Pricing for the unique service is based upon a daily rate for the chamber and its staff if €1,500 per day. Consumables and assays are additional.

Therefore, by selecting the questions, time points and number of organisms, our clients can request bespoke projects and design their own pricing.
Itemised project outlines and pricing for PCR or assay analysis basis can be determine for various organism such as Adenovirus, Staph aureus and Tinea Rubren
