SIGNS THAT YOU MIGHT NEED AIR QUALITY TESTING

It’s important to verify and maintain good air quality in your home or workplace. This keeps you, your loved ones, and your colleagues healthy and helps to support long-term well-being. While it’s a good idea to do routine tests to make sure that your results are consistent, it also helps to know the signs that your indoor air quality might be deteriorating. Here are some signs that you might need indoor air quality testing: 

• Unusual Odors: Persistent strange smells that don't go away could be signs of mold, mildew, or other airborne contaminants. Proper testing can help identify these issues so you can take appropriate action.
• Increased Allergy Symptoms: If you or others in the building start experiencing heightened allergy symptoms such as sneezing, congestion, or itchy eyes, it might be a good idea to test your air quality. Allergens like pollen, dust mites, or pet dander in the air can have these effects.
• Visible Mold or Mildew: Do you see mold or mildew on your walls, ceilings, or other surfaces? This can be signs of high humidity levels and poor air quality working together.
• Mysterious Health Symptoms: Unexplained symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, dizziness, or nausea while inside the building could be signs of poor indoor air quality. Our air testing services can detect high carbon monoxide levels or other potential air quality problems that could be causing these issues.
• Recent Renovation or Construction: Building and renovation work can release pollutants like dust, asbestos, or chemical fumes into the air. If you have recently undergone a major remodeling project, test your property’s air quality when you’re done to make sure that it’s safe for inhabitants. 
• Humidity Issues: It’s important for your building to properly balance humidity levels. Too much or too little moisture in the air can cause discomfort and health issues, as well as damage to the building itself.
• Inefficient Ventilation: If your building has poor ventilation, contaminants can accumulate over time to unhealthy levels. Signs of poor ventilation in your building include stuffy air, moisture condensation on windows, or stale smells.
• Presence of Radon: Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that can enter buildings through the ground and is known to cause lung cancer. Testing is the only way to know if your property has a radon problem. Fortunately, remediation systems exist to help address these issues.
