WHO WE ARE
At Air Quality Engineers, we design tailored industrial air filtration and dust collection systems for complex industrial applications built around four core commitments:
Deep Industry Expertise
Founded in 2021, AQE brings together a leadership team with over 50 years of collective experience - engineers and operations professionals who've worked inside manufacturing facilities like yours.
Engineered for Your Application, Not a Catalog
With offices in California and Wisconsin, we work closely with each client to understand their process before specifying a single piece of equipment. The result is a system built for your facility - not the closest standard option.
Backed by World-Class Manufacturers
We partner with top-tier manufacturers to design and install comprehensive, reliable air quality systems tailored to the exact specifications of your facility.
Protecting People, Process, and Production
Our mission is to give you absolute confidence in your environmental compliance, workforce safety, and operational efficiency - so your facility runs cleaner, safer, and without interruption.
WHAT WE SOLVE
Design. Supply. Install. Service.
Industrial facilities face real consequences when air quality fails - regulatory fines, equipment downtime, and most importantly, risk to your people. AQE handles the full journey from identifying the problem to keeping the solution running.
System Assessment & Engineering
Higher energy use, unusual noise, or dust escaping where it shouldn't - something's off and you know it. We analyze your system, diagnose the gaps, and design the right solution.
Air Contamination Capture
The wrong filtration system leads to unsafe air, equipment damage, downtime, and compliance risk. We analyze your contaminants and engineer the exact baghouse, cartridge, or ambient system your process demands.
Dust Collection Systems
Airborne dust isn't just a compliance issue - it's a production risk. We design complete dust collection systems around your process, including baghouse and cartridge collectors, source capture, ducting, fans, and controls.
Dust Explosion Prevention
Unmanaged combustible dust in your collection system can ignite, explode, and shut down your plant. We design, supply, and install isolation and suppression equipment to keep people and operations safe.
Fume & Mist Collection
Welding, fabrication, machining, thermal spray - every process creates its own airborne hazard. We identify the right capture strategy for your specific contaminants, keeping your workers safe and your facility compliant.
Field Services
We don't just deliver equipment. AQE partners with your team to coordinate every phase of installation - proactively planning each step to protect your people and keep production on schedule.
Ductwork Design
Poor ductwork defeats even the best collector - dust settles, airflow drops, and your system underperforms from day one. We design ducting systems that fully convey your dust stream - no settling, no fallout, no shortcuts.
Service, Parts, & Maintenance
Most air quality problems don't announce themselves until something fails with Even a well-designed system wears out without proper maintenance.

TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
Discover how our engineered air filtration solutions have helped businesses improve air quality, enhance operational efficiency, and create safer working environments.
AQE was fantastic. The individualized service and care were exceptional. The prices and lead times we received were in budget and worked great with our rapid prototyping schedules. I am looking forward to working with you guys on more projects next year!

HOW IT WORKS
From site visit to clean air in 4 steps
No cookie-cutter systems. Every AQE project starts with understanding your specific process, contaminants, and facility constraints.
Most projects go from first call to commissioned system in 6-10 weeks
Site assessment
We visit your facility, measure contaminant levels, and document airflow conditions, capture deficiencies, and compliance gaps.
Custom system design
Our engineers design a code-compliant solution optimized for your process, budget, and space constraints.
Installation & commissioning
Every project starts with a problem - dust, fumes, mist, or all three. Here's how we've solved them.
Ongoing support
Preventive maintenance plans, parts supply, and performance reviews - so your system keeps protecting your people long after installation day.
