A method for assessing the indoor air quality (IAQ) of a room in an Establishments Servicing the Public. Online audit, interpreted report and action plan in compliance with IAQ monitoring requirements in a Public Receiving Facility.
Asthma, allergies, headaches, dizziness, cancer, hormonal dysfunction, indoor air pollution affects health and decreases the ability to pay attention, learn and think.
Preventing children's exposure to indoor air pollution is now a public health priority. This requires a better knowledge of the state of indoor air quality in public buildings frequented by children, the implementation of preventive and improvement actions and the control of indoor air pollution levels.
Since children spend more than a third of their day (between 8 and 10 a.m.) in a school, good IAQ is essential to prevent health risks for younger children.
Since January 1st, 2015, in France monitoring of the indoor air quality of Establishments Servicing the Public has become an obligation. This regulatory system applies today to public and private childcare facilities:
Before taking indoor air quality measurements, the person in charge of a Public Receiving Facility is asked to carry out a precise and complete audit of the different rooms of the Public Receiving Facility in order to evaluate the specific risks of indoor air pollution and to define in an action plan the strategy for preventing indoor air pollution and improving IAQ.
YOOTEST accompanies you in your obligation to monitor the quality of indoor air in Public Receiving Facilities.”
Assessing the indoor air quality of a dwelling requires knowledge of accurate information about the outdoor environment and each room in the Public Receiving Facility.
This information concerns in particular the furniture, walls, floor, cleaning, ventilation, heating and usages...
Based on the recommendations of the French Ministry of the Environment and Ecological and Solidarity Transition, YOOTEST teams have developed a comprehensive online questionnaire to obtain this information.
The interpretation of the answers allows YOOTEST experts to establish a precise assessment of indoor air quality and to propose a prevention and improvement action plan.
The action plan meets the requirements of IAQ monitoring in Establishments Servicing the Public.
The self-assessment is the first action to be taken to find out the status of indoor air quality in an Establishments Servicing the Public. It allows:
To know how to act effectively to improve IAQ on a daily basis.
To identify the pollutions at risk for health.
The self-assessment report is available within 10 days of receipt of the form and contains:
The IAQ self-assessment proposed by YOOTEST is focused on a room in the building.
It is recommended to perform a self-assessment for each of the main rooms of the Public Receiving Facility, i.e. the rooms where the children spend the most time.
If the rooms, their furnishings and the activities that take place in them are identical, only one self-assessment is needed for these rooms.
If you perform several diagnostics, you can benefit from discounts for two or more diagnostics.
