The company gives training, makes reports, and shares information on new indoor air measurement methods

Elisa Aattela

I have been in the indoor air research industry since the 80s and have seen the emergence and progression of moisture and microbial damage to buildings. Indoor air research is always based on practical work and observations.

The company has developed a method for detecting indoor air quality -degrading gaseous sulfur compounds in structures with an S-collector. The method can also be used directly for testing indoor air. The samples are analyzed in Mikrofokus Oy laboratory.

SEA-IN story

When we started thinking about a more international name for the company, we got the idea of taking the first letters of the words in the current name, Sisäilmatutkimuspalvelut Elisa Aattela Oy, and ended up with SEA.

However, that email address wasn’t available so we had to think of something else. IN means inside, so it felt like a natural addition, and the email address was available. The sea is made of water drops and the logo of the company is drop.

Aattela Measuring Method

The sample is collected from the indoor water vapour by decomposition into solid frost, which then melts and forms water droplets on the steel surface. This is one way how water vapour moves in nature as well. From the sea, the water vapour evaporates into the clouds, and rains down as either water or snow. There is always outdoor air first and it turns into indoor air when it is brought inside a building.

When outdoor air is brought inside a building, certain contaminants get stuck in its water vapor. Indoor air also contains particles and gaseous substances, but they are collected by different methods. These parts have been studied for more than 30 years, but the impurities in the water vapor have only been studied since 2014 as a result of Johanna Salo’s diploma thesis and the sampling method developed by Aattela.

The E-collector is a new indoor air research method and has proven to work in real sites. Inspired by this, the new Aattela Measurement Method is being introduced throughout Finland. If you are interested in this as a company / entrepreneur and would like more information, please contact us.
