About 8AIR

Ann Barber, Founder of 8AIR

Environmental Engineer, Certified Building Biology Advocate, Indoor Air Quality Specialist

Ann is an Environmental Engineer and Certified Building Biologist Advocate with more than 12 years of experience assessing and improving indoor air quality in homes, businesses, and industrial spaces. Her passion for creating clean, healthy indoor environments is rooted not only in her professional expertise but also in her personal journey to build a safer home for her family.

After extensive testing of her own home with various monitors and kits, Ann realized there was no simple, comprehensive solution for homeowners to truly understand their indoor air. This led to the creation of 8AIR—a complete, easy-to-use indoor air quality test kit that measures eight critical environmental indicators and delivers clear, actionable results.

Ann believes everyone deserves peace of mind about the air they breathe at home. Through 8AIR, she is making professional-level testing accessible to all, empowering people to take control of their indoor environment and protect their health.
