HVAC PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT AND REMEDIATION
High-performance lab ventilation system solutions.
The laboratory's ventilation system can be complex and problematic. World BioHazTec's engineers have restored many ventilation systems to operation because we know how the system should work.
World BioHazTec has worked with hundreds of critical environments including cleanrooms, high containment laboratories, maximum containment laboratories, chemistry laboratories, insectaries, isolation wards and surgical suites. We have evaluated designs both on paper and onsite and have recommended solutions that will make your HVAC system perform appropriately and in compliance with guidelines and regulations.
HVAC Validation
Many clients have saved research dollars with World BioHazTec's advanced level of expertise. Whether the lab is old or new, we work with you to address issues that you may be experiencing with your ventilation system. Our goal is to have your system achieve guideline and regulatory compliance.

HVAC Performance Assessment
World BioHazTec understands the components to ensure a properly working HVAC system. If you are experiencing issues such as airflow reversals or other HVAC challenges, our professionals are able to identify the issue and provide solutions. To ensure proper airflow dynamics, World BioHazTec evaluates the HVAC system and conducts a site facility diagnostic test which includes:
- Introduction meeting and agenda review.
- Survey ventilation system. Evaluate fast-actuating isolation dampers. Review control strategy for air handling units and exhaust fans.
- Visually inspect facility for compliance to NIH and CDC requirements.
- Measure laboratory and anteroom differential pressures at each door.
- Smoke test room airflow patterns around biological safety cabinets.
- Consult with your organization's facilities personnel and controls contractor regarding programming decisions.
Following the site visit, World BioHazTec will provide a Report of Findings that identifies the strengths and areas of improvement to achieve compliance and certification to the NIH and CDC requirements. The Report will include:
- Graphical depictions of the facility.
- Layout of the facility.
- Graphs of differential pressure readings and interpretation.
- Verification of calibration of the facility’s differential pressure meters.
- Pictures indicating design issues.
- Quality improvement recommendations.
- Certificates of equipment used to collect data to verify accuracy and integrity of the Report.
