The air you breathe contains so much more than what you can see. This is true for both outdoor and indoor air. Indoor air quality testing services will make you aware of what you’re breathing at home. If you’re concerned about your indoor air quality, here are a few of the most important scenarios to consider air quality testing.
- After renovations. Home remodels and renovations, even when done in one isolated area of the home, can stir up lots of particles into the air. Pollutants from paint, wood, and other construction and renovation materials can be harmful to breathe in, so testing your home’s air quality following a renovation is an important step to take.
- Mold presence. Mold spores can aggravate allergies, especially for people with preexisting breathing conditions. If you’ve noticed mold growing in your home, air quality testing should be in your future. Not only will this ease your mind about the air you’re breathing, but it will alert you to what you need to address to improve your indoor air quality.
- Different home activities and occupancy. Smoking indoors can increase indoor air pollution. Pet dander lingers in the air. Dust mites naturally accumulating contribute to poor indoor air quality. Periodically testing your air quality is a good idea even without major disasters or problems affecting your home.
