Overview

About the service.

Ventilation systems naturally drift away from their original design performance over time. Changes to the system, worn components, blocked filters or poor balancing can all reduce airflow, affecting indoor air quality, occupant comfort and overall system efficiency.

Our engineers carry out comprehensive ventilation performance testing to assess how your system is operating, identify performance issues and provide accurate measurements to support maintenance, commissioning and compliance.

What’s included

  • Airflow & air volume testing
  • System balancing
  • Air velocity measurements
  • Performance reporting
  • Recommendations & remedial advice

Why it matters

Maintaining System Performance.

Routine performance testing helps ensure ventilation systems continue operating efficiently, safely and as intended.

Verified airflow

Measure airflow and air volume to confirm the system is delivering the required ventilation performance.

Improved efficiency

Identify restrictions, imbalances and performance losses that may increase energy consumption.

Balanced systems

Correct airflow distribution helps improve comfort, ventilation effectiveness and overall system operation.

Evidence-based decisions

Accurate performance data supports maintenance planning, commissioning and future remedial works.

Performance Verified

Measured with confidence.

Ventilation performance testing provides objective measurements of how a system is operating, allowing performance to be verified against design requirements or operational expectations.

Every assessment includes calibrated test results, performance measurements and comprehensive reporting, providing a clear record of system performance and any recommended improvements.

How it works

From testing to report.

A clear, accountable process — supported by accurate measurements.

01

Review

We review the ventilation system, its intended operation and any available drawings, commissioning information or previous test records.

02

Measure

Using calibrated instruments, we measure airflow, air volume, air velocity and other relevant system performance data.

03

Evaluate

The results are assessed to identify airflow restrictions, system imbalances or areas where performance differs from expected operation.

04

Report

You receive a comprehensive report detailing the test results, observations and practical recommendations for any balancing adjustments or remedial works.

Where we work

Sectors we serve.

We clean and certify ventilation systems across a wide range of commercial and industrial settings.

FAQs

Common questions.

What is ventilation performance testing?

Ventilation performance testing measures airflow, air volume and system operation to determine whether a ventilation system is performing as intended and delivering effective ventilation.

Do you carry out system balancing?

Yes. We can assess airflow distribution throughout the ventilation system and carry out balancing adjustments where required to help achieve the intended system performance.

When should ventilation systems be performance tested?

Performance testing is recommended following installation, after significant alterations, when poor airflow is suspected or as part of a planned maintenance strategy to verify ongoing system performance.

What do I receive after the testing?

Every project includes a detailed report containing performance measurements, test results, observations and recommendations, providing a clear record of your ventilation system’s operating performance.
