Protect your family from the serious health threat that indoor air pollution poses in your new home. According to the Environmental Protection Agency “levels of air pollution inside the home can be two to five times higher –- and occasionally 100 times higher –- than outdoor levels." There are many contaminants in the air inside your home. These contaminants come from a variety of sources including pets, chemicals in the form of household cleaning products, unvented gas appliances, even the materials your home was built from and the soil on which it was built. Indoor contaminants have been linked to everything from allergies and asthma to other respiratory ailments including lung cancer.

Indoor pollutants fall into several categories. Biological contaminants include mold, mildew, dust mites, viruses, pet dander and pet hair. These biological contaminants are fostered by excess moisture in the air and household environment. As part of the combustion process, appliances like gas stoves and fireplaces produce gallons of moisture and may produce soot and carbon monoxide. Respirable particles (particulates) result from dust, pollen, cleansers, etc. Radon can enter your home through the basement or crawlspace. All of these contaminants are present in your new home in varying degrees. HomeAire can provide you with the products and the expert know-how to help you deal with all these problems.
