The quality of indoor air directly affects the health, comfort, and well-being of occupants—and odour is often the first noticeable sign that something is wrong. In restoration, cleaning, and property management, understanding how to identify, assess, and remediate air quality issues related to odours is not just a technical skill—it’s a fundamental aspect of delivering professional and lasting results.
This course, Air Quality and Odour: Identification and Deodorisation Essentials, has been designed for professionals working in restoration, environmental cleaning, HVAC, or any industry where air quality is a concern. Whether you’re responding to water damage, fire, mould, biohazards, or lingering pet and tobacco odours, this course will equip you with the knowledge to assess the situation, identify the root causes of contamination, and apply proven strategies for effective deodorisation.
Throughout this course, you’ll explore the science behind air quality and how odours travel and linger in indoor spaces. You’ll also learn about the key categories of odour (biological, chemical, and particulate), the technologies and products used to control and neutralise them, and best practices for achieving final clearance and customer satisfaction. We’ll also cover safe and appropriate use of air scrubbers, hydroxyl generators, ozone machines, and absorbents.
This is not just about masking smells—it’s about addressing contamination at its source and improving the long-term health and habitability of indoor environments. Each module has been developed to provide practical, real-world insights you can apply immediately in the field.
By the end of the course, you’ll not only be better equipped to improve indoor air quality and manage odour—but you’ll also elevate your service standard, protect occupant health, and enhance your reputation as a trusted professional in the field.
Let’s get started.
