| Air Quality The quality of the air that we breathe is essential to our health and well-being. It has been noted that a human can typically survive for thirty days without food, three days without water, but only three minutes without air and yet it is the indoor air quality that is so often overlooked!

 | Water Quality Maintaining the quality of the water used in building systems is essential for the smooth operation of the building. Equally important however, is the impact that the water can have on the health of the occupants. From the risk of scalding to the threat of Legionnaires’ Disease and the quality of the drinking water, there is need for vigilance. HBI brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the monitoring of these systems.
