ESSENTIAL INDICATORS
8AIR TESTS FOR
-
VOCS
Chemicals from building materials, cleaning products, paint, cosmetics, air fresheners, furniture, dry cleaned clothing, and more, many VOCs are known carcinogens. VOCs are one of the primary groups of contaminants in indoor air and can cause headaches, dizziness, fatigue and even skin irritation. Many VOCs are not regulated and are found in everyday products in our homes.
-
FORMALDEHYDE
Typically found in adhesives, formaldehyde is a chemical used to produce pressed-wood products and used in flooring installations. Formaldehyde is a known carcinogen and can cause irritation of the skin, eyes, nose and throat.
-
MOLD
Mold spores can be found inside and outside the home and some types can cause allergic reactions. Mold spores in air are linked to health conditions including breathing problems, skin and eye irritation. Mold spores can be present in the air without visual evidence of mold in your home.
-
RADON
A colorless, odorless radioactive gas that is naturally occurring and linked to lung cancer, radon can enter buildings through the basement or lowest level. Radon levels in enclosed spaces can pose a health risk, especially for children.
-
PARTICULATES
Particulate matter including PM2.5 which is so small it is is not visible to the naked eye and can cause lung damage. PM2.5 includes particles less than 2.5 micrometers from a variety of sources such as smoke, dust, pollen and aerosols.
-
CARBON MONOXIDE
CO, which is colorless and odorless, can be found in homes with poorly ventilated gas or wood-burning appliances, such as gas stoves, wood burning fireplaces and more, and reduces oxygen levels in the blood harming organs including the brain and heart.
-
CARBON DIOXIDE
An overall metric for the amount of fresh air in a building, high CO2 can indicate a build-up of toxic chemicals. High levels of CO2 can cause fatigue. Increasing fresh air in a building can alleviate health concerns and measuring CO2 is a good way to monitor whether or not there is enough fresh air exchange.
-
HUMIDITY
Mold can grow with humidity levels over 60%, depending on the temperature. Unregulated humidity levels can result in harmful mold behind walls, above ceilings, or in other hidden places.
