Routes to Clean Air 2016

National Air Quality Testing Services (NAQTS) is a social business that is passionate about improving the quality of life.

We seek to improve awareness of indoor air quality through widespread public and commercial monitoring.

We believe that understanding your indoor air quality is a holistic enterprise. That’s why we measure all pollutants, not just one. We offer an affordable, integrated solution, that utilises state-of-the-art testing equipment.

Based in UK (London, Lancaster University Environment Centre, and Cardiff), and in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA.


PARTICLES: - Measures ultrafine particles suspended in the air with a “regulatory compliant” Condensation Particle Counter.

CO, NO2, VOCs, Ammonia, Ozone:- Dual measurements using Metal Oxide and Electrochemical sensor technologies. For VOCs we can also offer thermal desorption tubes for GC-MS Analysis.

CO2:- Standardised method of non-dispersive infrared (NDIR).

Temperature, Pressure & Humidity – BME280

Noise – dBALocation – GPSVibration – 3D accelerometer and 3D Gyro

• 90% of our time indoors

• Average person in EU spends 1 hour a day in a vehicle

• Highest concentrations in vehicles


• V1000 mounted inside a mannequin

• Simulates human exposure


Automated Data Analysis and Reporting• Exposure (1 Hz to 8 Hr)• Auto Time Alignment for Ratio Measurements

(e.g. Inside Outside Building / Car)• -GIS and Video Synchronisation


Dynamic Vehicle Testing:

• Noise as a function of speed, engine, and acceleration

• Vibration as a function of speed, engine, acceleration, and route

• Temperature, pressure, and relative humidity control

• HVAC Leakage rates as a function of speed

• Pollution – gases and particulates (absolute and ratio to outside)

• Micro-environmental and mobile air quality monitoring


More to follow very soon

Emissions Analytics using our technology• Benchmarking vehicles “comfort”

• Air Quality• Noise• Vibration

• Data on in-cabin air quality from potentially 100s of vehicles per year

• Data on Commercial and Residential indoor air quality from potentially 100s of sites per year

• Mobile air quality monitoring
