Indoor Air Quality Testing
Is your home or workplace indoor air quality making you sick?
There are many contributing factors from cigarette smoke, dust mites, pollen, molds, pet dander and carbon monoxide just to name a few. People with chemical sensitivity can also experience similar symptoms when they are exposed to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in building materials, paints, solvents, household cleaners, air fresheners and other fragrances.
Allergies, asthma and other respiratory problems are on the rise. We spend more that 80% of our time indoors. Other symptoms include irritation of the eyes, nose and throat, headaches, dizziness and antique. Some of these are short-term and treatable simply by eliminating the person's exposure to the source of the pollution if it can be identified.
Individual sensitivity varies tremendously from person to person, so there may be only one person in the household or workplace that may have a hypersensitivity to particular indoor pollutants.
It is important to pay attention to the time and place the symptoms occur. If the symptoms fade or go away when the person is away from home or work, for example, an effort should be made to identify the indoor air source that may be the possible cause.
Indoor air quality plays a big part in your overall health. We recommend testing your air quality first to determine what pollutants are present, then finding the source.
