It has the potential to provide an environment that fosters mold spores.  We are happy to offer duct cleaning and Aeroseal to provide you with cleaner air in your home and work space to keep you healthier.​​​​​​​​​

 

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, indoor air pollution levels can be as much as 100 times more than outdoor air. Since most people are indoors up to 90% of their time indoors, it is important to reduce indoor contaminated air and protect the health of you and your family.

Polluted indoor air is the cause or aggravation of 50% of illnesses, according to the American College of Allergists, contributing to fatigue, lung irritation and headaches as well as allergies and infectious diseases.

Indoor Air Quality Facts

• People spend 75-90% of their time indoors

• Exposure to airborne contamination is considerable.

• 50% of all major office buildings have contaminated heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems (HVAC). If not properly maintained, they are a hotbed for growth of molds and bacteria.

• Each person inhales over 3,500 gallons of air each day. Children inhale more particles for their size then adolescents or adults.

• Polluted air causes 94% of all respiratory problems.

• More than 31 million Americans have been diagnosed with asthma, about 1/3 are children under 18.

• About 40,000 dust mites, a common household allergen, can live in one ounce of dust.

• An estimated 10-15% of the entire population may be allergic to cat or dog dander.

• A person sheds up to 700,000 skin flakes per day.

Indoor Air Pollutants

There are 3 types of indoor air pollutants – Particulates, Microbials and Gases. Therefore, in order to make an apples-to-apples comparison, we must compare what each type of indoor air quality product is attempting to do. There is an industry rule of thumb:

“If it is alive you have to kill it.”
“If it is dead you have to trap it.”

​

Particulates

Particulates are tiny particles suspended in the air. Common particulates include residential pollen, dust mites, dust, smoke and dander (skin flakes). Particulate diameters are measured in microns and range from .001 to 1,000 microns. These dimensions represent the continuum from a few molecules up to the size where particles can no longer be airborne.

​

Microbials

These are bacteria, germs, viruses, fungi, spores and mold. Although bacteria are small in size and usually microscopic, they have an amazing ability to do damage to all living organisms including humans. Many everyday illnesses are also caused by viruses like the common cold or the flu. Mold can be a dangerous allergen, cause infections, and destroy property requiring extensive repair and rebuilding.

​

Gases

Indoor odors are caused by things like pets, cooking, garbage exist in every home and office. Gases, such as benzene, formaldehyde, chloroform, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, etc., are released from furniture, cabinets, carpets, cleaning chemicals, insulation, insect sprays, hair sprays, etc. Manufactures use chemicals to make these products and they off gas, or evaporate, these chemicals into the air in your home.
