Verified Healthy Building for Indoor Air

Verification Method

UL’s Healthy Buildings Verification Mark for Indoor Air demonstrates that indoor spaces provide healthy indoor air quality (IAQ). It shows a commitment by building owners and managers to create and maintain indoor environments that support tenant health, well-being and comfort, backed by UL’s globally recognized expertise in IAQ and building health. These buildings meet rigorous performance criteria and have policies and plans in place for continual advancement of IAQ. To achieve the UL Healthy Buildings Verification Mark, spaces underwent a desktop audit and on-site visits that include visual inspections and performance testing to evaluate a range of building conditions. The program includes an annual comprehensive assessment coupled with surveillance at the mid-year point. The IAQ testing requirements verify that the building air meets rigorous standards. These standards are aligned with industry-recognized, third-party organizations such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the World Health Organization (WHO) and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), among others. All laboratory testing and analysis methodologies are informed by the EPA Compendium of Methods, ASTM D5197 and TO-17 for air sampling, and EPA methods.

About the Company

1800 Bering is distinctively situated in the heart of Tanglewood on 2 acres surrounded by manicured grounds with beautiful mature trees, shrubbery, and seasonal flowers. The building features easy access to I- 10, Loop 610 and U.S. 59, three major Houston thoroughfares, proximity to Uptown Park and Galleria dining and shopping amenities, and an on-site management office. Once arriving at 1800 Bering, covered drop-off and parking garage await tenants and visitors alike. The building went under significant renovations including updated lobbies on all floors, new elevator cabs, new flooring, updated monument signage, along with a complete change in the landscaping.
