About Illuminair
A specialist consultancy, deliberately focused.
Illuminair provides independent environmental assessment, investigation and monitoring for hotels and commercial property.
01Who we are
Independent evidence about the indoor environment.
Illuminair is an independent consultancy focused on one subject: how the indoor environment of a building actually performs, and what that means for the people responsible for it.
We assess, investigate and monitor indoor air quality, ventilation and thermal comfort, and we explain the evidence in terms that General Managers, engineering teams and owners can each act on.
We are a specialist consultancy, not a multidisciplinary engineering practice. Where a question calls for engineering design or specialist equipment, we say so at the outset and involve qualified partners.
Independence
Our conclusions follow the measurements. We state what the evidence supports and what it does not, and where a question needs specialist equipment or engineering partners, we say so before work is agreed.
How the work is held to account02Leadership
Accountable for every engagement.
