Indoor Air Quality Conference 2023

17/07/2023 - 18/07/2023

$110 – $995
Indoor Air Quality Conference 2023

The Indoor Air Quality Conference 2023 will be held in Brisbane from July 17–18.

Good quality indoor air is critical for good health. Australians spend 90 per cent of their time indoors – in the home, office, or other types of buildings – where airborne particles, gases, chemicals, mould, and other pollutants can cause headaches, eye irritation, allergies, and fatigue. Serious pollutants can cause certain types of cancers and other long-term health complications.

Supplying clean air through a building’s heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can prevent many environmental health hazards such as asthma. According to Asthma Australia, asthma affects one in nine Australians (around 2.7 million people).

About the conference

The purpose of this conference is to provide AIRAH members and the broader industry with a platform for discussing issues related to indoor air quality (IAQ). This includes policy advice, regulation development, and the development of (and access to) the latest industry-leading advice. This conference will promote a whole-of-supply-chain integrated view on issues related to indoor air quality, along with best-practice delivery in the Australian and international community.
