Requirements for Fit Testing:
To ensure accurate and effective mask fit testing:
- Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or chewing gum within 15 minutes before your appointment.
- All facial hair that may interfere with a proper seal of the mask must be removed before the test can occur. If you have facial hair in this manner, you will be informed and the test will be canceled (As per regulations).
- If you are required to wear other personal protective equipment (e.g., ear protection, safety goggles, etc.), in the performance of your work, please bring these with you. We may ask you to wear these while performing the test.
- All masks being tested must meet CSA, NIOSH, or CE requirements. If there is an absence of proper markings on the mask, we will be unable to fit test you with that device.
- If we are testing a respirator with particulate filter, please bring the filters with you and ensure they are not expired, we presently do not carry spares.
