A Day in the Life of an Environmental Consultant: "Precision, Safety, and Impact are the 3 goals we work too on every job.

"Each site I visit tells a different story, but my mission never changes: ensuring Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) systems do what they’re designed to do—protect the people who depend on them.
As a Senior Environmental Consultant at DevineAir Limited, my days are spent traveling to industrial and commercial facilities across the UK, conducting meticulous LEV testing in full compliance with HSE standards.

The process involves precision at every step:
- Comprehensive visual inspections of extraction systems, hoods, ductwork, filters, and airflow paths.
- Accurate measurement of airflow, static pressure, and face velocity.
- Evaluations of capture efficiency through smoke testing.
- Clearly labelling systems that meet compliance—and providing actionable advice for those that don’t.

But clients come to us for more than technical checks. They value:
- Straightforward consultations that cut through the jargon
- Practical, real-time advice they can act on immediately
- Clear, concise reports that make compliance straightforward

Every report we generate contributes to a larger mission: safeguarding operators, ensuring COSHH compliance, and enabling businesses to operate responsibly.

Representing a team that approaches environmental consultancy with expertise, integrity, and a personal touch is something I’m truly proud of—whether that’s on-site, in our detailed reports, or through the relationships we build.

If you’re reviewing your LEV systems or gearing up for your annual compliance checks, let’s connect. I’d be happy to help."
