Air Quality Testing

The Problem: Your Air Could Be Making You Sick

Headaches, coughing, sneezing, itchy eyes, and persistent congestion — these symptoms are easy to blame on seasonal allergies or a cold. But if they happen primarily when you are indoors, your air quality may be the real culprit. Even clean-looking homes and offices can contain elevated levels of mold spores, VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and other invisible airborne contaminants.

Poor air quality affects your health, comfort, and productivity. The EPA estimates that the air inside your home or office can be 2 to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air. Without testing, there is no reliable way to know what you are breathing.
