The Brief
Theater M needed a structured indoor air quality assessment to evaluate conditions across the building and establish compliance with applicable indoor air quality regulations, with real-time visibility for building managers throughout the monitoring period and a full report at the close.
What We Did
Airscan deployed a monitoring network across Theater M and ran a continuous assessment over a three-month period, tracking how indoor air quality evolved across different spaces and conditions throughout that time. Building managers had access to real-time data throughout, allowing them to respond to conditions as they arose rather than waiting for a retrospective report. At the close of the monitoring period, Airscan produced a full report covering threshold analysis, conclusions drawn from three months of data, and specific recommendations for future improvements.
How It Works
A three-month window captures what a single-day or single-week measurement misses — how air quality shifts between a quiet Tuesday rehearsal and a sold-out Friday evening, how different seasons and occupancy patterns interact with the building’s ventilation, and where the consistent problem areas are versus the incidental ones. Real-time access to that data during the period means building management isn’t passive in the process; they can act on what they’re seeing while the assessment is still running rather than receiving everything at the end.
Outcomes
The assessment produced a full compliance and quality picture for Theater M, along with a concrete set of recommendations for improvement. The monitoring network remained in place after the three-month assessment concluded, giving the theater continued visibility into their indoor air quality on an ongoing basis.
