We believe improving air quality inside commercial buildings has never been more important. However, it’s particularly apt following the growing media interest in the impact of outdoor air quality in the UK, this year’s National Clean Air Day and an update to the UK Building Regulations; which had a key focus on improving ventilation and reducing indoor air pollutants.

It’s also great that we have partners that believe this too, which is why we’ve worked with Area, one of the UK and Europe’s most progressive and successful workplace design and fit-out specialists for the contents of a brand new guide ‘Best practice design for better air quality in commercial buildings’. Bringing together experts from both organisations, our collaborative paper’s tailormade for tenants looking to navigate this tricky process.

What air-related questions to ask when searching for your space

When searching for the right building as part of your next office move, there are lots of things to consider when it comes to air quality. To help you narrow down your search, try asking the following questions:

• What is the Outdoor Air Quality [ODA] rating in the area?
• What is the ventilation rate and why’s it important?
• Is the building naturally or mechanically ventilated?
• How old is the current mechanical system?
• What are Air Handling Units and where should they be located?
• How many years do the Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems last and when should they be replaced?

But that’s just the start! For more key questions, and a breakdown of useful accreditations to look out for, download the full guide.
