‘A fit test' tests the seal between the N95 or respirator's facepiece and your face. Takes typically 15-20 minutes to complete.
It is important to know when and where you will need to wear one for protection in your workplace.
A fit test is required when a type of respirator is initially used and then at least annually as part of a workplace respiratory protection program.
No single make, model, or size can be expected to fit all users. A variety of respirators are available to obtain a comfortable fit for an effective seal. A fit test is specific to the make, model, style, and size of respirator that will be worn. If the respirator doesn't fit your face properly, contaminated air can leak into your respirator facepiece, and you could breathe in hazardous substances.
The Mask Fitter offers Qualitative fit testing that is in compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) requirements and meets the CSA Z94.4-18 standards on the proper selection, care and use of respirators.
