The goal of any indoor air quality assessment is to provide the customer with information and knowledge specific to their home that will assist them in maintaining the highest quality air inside their home.  Armed with this knowledge, the homeowner can make decisions to improve their indoor air quality in the most cost effective manner. 

The EPA has commissioned studies that prove indoor air pollution can be two to five times higher (and up to as high as 100 times higher) than the outdoor air. Additional studies have linked indoor air quality to a wide range of short and long-term health problems such as headaches, rashes, and a whole host of respiratory ailments.  Currently over 60 million Americans have symptoms related to allergies and asthma. 

Several factors are involved with the deterioration of the quality of the indoor air American’s have in the home.  These factors all relate to the inability of home professionals to see the home as a collection of systems operating as one system (similar to the human body) or the improper operation of the house by the homeowner. 

Several factors need to be assessed to determine the indoor air quality of the building, such as the following:

ALL INDOOR AIR QUALITY INSPECTIONS SHOULD START HERE

• Interviews with occupants

• Visual inspection of building 

Some of the items we may sample for and evaluate (this list is not exhaustive)

• Volatile organic compounds

• Mold

• Carbon monoxide

• Carbon dioxide

• Formaldehyde

• OxygenHydrogen sulfide

• Dusts

• Temperature and humidity

• Radon

• Asbestos 

These items (all or only part) need to be assessed to determine the cause of the poor indoor air quality and allow Diamond Environmental Solutions, Inc. to provide solutions that improve the indoor air quality and provide a health, safe, and comfortable living environment.
