Indoor Environments Lab

The Indoor Environments Lab was established in 1939 as a test and research facility for the heating, ventilation and air condition industry. For more than 80 years, this independent, laboratory at the Texas A&M University RELLIS Campus has served air conditioning and ventilation manufacturers and built environment globally.
The laboratory is ISO 17025 (Laboratory Quality) accredited and is also an approved testing laboratory for the Home Ventilating Institute, Energy Star Programs, and the California Energy Commission Appliance Efficiency. Additionally, Indoor Environments Lab provides air conditioning and heat pump testing.
Indoor Environments Lab’s mission is to provide accurate and repeatable testing and research results, whether it is from a standard test/research procedure or from a custom testing or research procedure developed for specific equipment requirements. Indoor Environments Lab has extensive research and testing experience investigating new technologies for HVAC systems. Indoor Environments Lab strives to accomplish these activities with the highest quality, accountability and ethical practice.
Examples of recent and ongoing HVAC projects dealing with both systems and components are in areas such as: innovative residential building mechanical systems, innovative compressor configurations, refrigerants and lubricants, non-standard temperature and weather performance, innovative evaporator configurations, dehumidification technologies, heat driven air conditioning units and condensate recycling.
