Based on the information provided by the CDC, the virus can be spread from person-to-person, typically through close contact. There is current evidence suggesting that the virus may be present on surfaces from a few hours up to a few days upon contamination. Thus, it is important to keep all common surfaces clean, and be aware of the space limitation between yourself and another person, 6 feet is recommended.

There is growing evidence that the SARS-CoV-2 virus remains airborne in indoor environments for hours, potentially increasing in concentration over time. As a result, lowering the airborne concentration of SARS-CoV-2 by means of ventilation and filtration can play a role in controlling indoor transmission of the virus that causes COVID-19 in addition to:

  • Social distancing
  • Wearing face coverings
  • Surface cleaning and disinfection

To assist our clients in determining the effectiveness of their cleaning protocols and HVAC operations, we are offering the following industrial hygiene testing.

  • COVID-19 environmental swab testing
  • COVID-19 air testing
  • COVID-19 surface testing
  • Post-cleaning verification services for facilities undergoing COVID clean up
  • ATP surface testing
  • Collecting of surface and air samples for the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus.
  • Validate HVAC and Filtration Systems for Aerosol Transmission Risk with veriDART™ This liquid aerosol-based solution uses DNA tracers to safely mimic the composition and mobility of viral aerosol to measure the effectiveness of ventilation and filtration for aerosol contaminants.

Environmental Surface Testing & Swab and Air Testing for the Presence of Covid-19

RPF will collect swab samples from representative surfaces in the building for laboratory analysis to determine the presence of Covid-19 utilizing quantitative RT-PCR technology. Studies indicate that the SARS-CoV-2 virus may remain viable and infective on surfaces for hours or even days on some material types. In addition, ambient air testing can be performed for the presence of COVID-19, as well as surrogates such as bacteria and mold.

Post-Cleaning Verification

Once your cleaning company has completed its work, RPF Environmental can assist our clients by helping to ensure an effective cleaning process.

Some organizations may want, or even be required to have, a level of 3rd party oversight and review of cleaning efforts. This may mean checks of engineering controls used, proper methods for cleaning, and spot checks of surfaces for signs of visible debris following cleaning efforts.


We are composed of certified environmental testing experts to help you ensure a COVID-19-free environment. Contact us now!

ATP Environmental Surface Testing for SARS-CoV-2

In addition to visual observations, you may also request random on-site spot checks of cleaning efforts using Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Tests. ATP measures the residual organic matter present on a surface after it is cleaned. This method doesn’t detect specific types of bioburden, pathogens, or viruses such as COVID-19.

However, it will help provide a qualitative measure of cleaning efforts on each surface, and it requires only seconds to complete. Healthcare systems and the food industry also frequently use ATP monitoring to help verify cleaning efficacy while still recognizing that it is not sufficiently sensitive to be used as a guarantee of full disinfection.

If outsourced, be sure to only hire a qualified cleaning firm specifically trained for COVID-19 cleaning and disinfection efforts. For 3rd party review, a qualified industrial hygiene firm should be contacted, such as RPF Environmental or you can visit the American Industrial Hygiene Association ( www.AIHA.org ) to find a list of Certified Industrial Hygienists in your area.

As indicated by the CDC, the timing and location of cleaning and disinfection, after persons suspected or confirmed to have COVID-19 have been in the facility, can vary.


Contact us today to schedule your swab testing for the presence of Covid-19, post-cleaning verification, or ATP surface testing. Serving clients in New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, and across the nation.
