Indoor Air Quality-Mold

Indoor air quality is 90 % of what we breathe inside our homes according to national consensus. Improving indoor air quality is having a preventative plan in place. It is like changing the oil in your vehicle every 3000 to 4000 miles to prevent any further damage. When water infiltrates our homes or workplace such as leaky roofs, flooding, sewer backups, high moisture, high relative humidity and dew points due to lack of air conditioning , dehumidifiers, proper air flow, and ventilation; mold and bacteria can tend to build up and cause indoor air quality problems. Regular, maintenance of our home whether it is the furnace or HVAC units, checking for leaking pipes and faucets, cleaning out areas regular such as basements, crawlspace, attics, garages, etc. Those stains on your ceilings or walls may be more than just dried up water stains from leaks or last winters ice dams! If you have checked your home and still suspect odors, or unusual indoor air quality then its time to call a professional to inspect and assess your home or office. The best way to rule out larger problems down the road is to hire a trained certified professional to investigate your indoor environment. At times testing be needed but not always. Moisture mapping or utilizing Thermal Infrared Camera may help detect problems that are unseen. Our goal is to point you in the right direction as independent consultants and seek to find healthy solutions for your home indoors.
