Air & Water Testing
Your indoor air and water play a central role in your long-term health, comfort, and resilience. Modern homes often trap pollutants inside and supply water through aging or chemically treated systems—creating invisible exposures that may contribute to fatigue, inflammation, allergies, respiratory irritation, skin issues, and general environmental stress. Our Indoor Air & Water Quality Testing service provides a complete, science-based evaluation of both systems through the lens of Building Biology principles, giving you clarity, actionable guidance, and a healthier foundation for daily living.
​
Indoor Air Quality Assessment
Indoor air can be significantly more polluted than outdoor air—even in clean or rural environments—due to off-gassing building materials, poor ventilation, microbial contamination, and everyday household activities.
We perform a detailed inspection and testing protocol designed to reveal the full picture of your indoor air health.
​
Water Quality Testing
Water that appears clean can still contain disinfectants, heavy metals, sediments, microplastics, or aging infrastructure byproducts. We evaluate both municipal and well-water systems through a Building Biology lens, focusing on contaminants that impact health and household function.
​
​
After the assessment, you’ll receive a detailed but easy-to-understand report that outlines:
-
Your air and water test results with Building Biology benchmarks
-
Photos, data logs, and clear explanations of findings
-
Sources contributing to pollution or contamination
-
A prioritized list of improvements (from simple steps to larger upgrades)
-
Recommendations for filtration, ventilation, humidity control, and plumbing improvements
-
Guidance on safer materials, appliances, and
maintenance routines
A healthy home starts with clean air and clean water. Our assessment gives you the insight and confidence to make upgrades that truly matter for your family’s well-being.
​
This service helps you:
-
Improve daily breathing and respiratory comfort
-
Reduce exposure to chemicals, particulates, and microbial irritants
-
Correct humidity, ventilation, and airflow patterns
-
Ensure your drinking water is clean, safe, and pleasant
-
Choose effective filtration systems based on
data—not guesswork -
Understand how your home’s environmental systems
affect long-term health -
Support children, sensitive individuals, or anyone
prioritizing wellness​
​​
We focus on practical solutions tailored to your lifestyle—no unnecessary products or fear-based recommendations.

​Our air evaluation may include:
-
VOC & Chemical Screening: Identifying gases from paints, flooring, cabinetry, cleaners, adhesives, plastics, and new furnishings.
-
Particulate Assessment: Measuring airborne particles (PM2.5 and PM10) from combustion, dust, cooking, smoke, mold fragments, and outdoor infiltration.
-
Humidity & Moisture Balance: Ensuring your indoor humidity supports a healthy home (ideally 40–60%) and does not promote mold or dust mite growth.
-
Carbon Dioxide & Stale Air Levels: Checking ventilation quality, fresh air intake, and occupant load on the indoor environment.
-
Ventilation & Filtration Review: Evaluating ERVs/HRVs, exhaust fans, HVAC filters, and natural ventilation efficiency.
-
Moisture & Microbial Risk Indicators: Identifying patterns that could contribute to mold or bacteria (without duplicating full mold testing unless needed).
Optional or targeted sampling may be used when appropriate to verify microbial activity or chemical contaminants—but only when it provides meaningful value.

Our water assessment may include testing for:
-
Chlorine & Chloramines
-
Heavy Metals (lead, copper, etc.)
-
Hardness & Mineral Balance
-
pH & Alkalinity
-
Sediment & Turbidity
-
Fluoride (if applicable)
-
PFAS/PFOS concerns (as needed or lab-based)
-
Taste, odor, plumbing, and delivery-system issues
We also assess water quality at:
-
The point of entry (main supply)
-
Points of use (kitchen sink, bathroom taps, shower,
refrigerator lines) -
Any existing filtration or softening systems
Instead of pushing a specific product, we provide independent guidance based on your unique water chemistry and health goals.
