Air Quality Testing: The First Step

When you take a deep breath inside your home, how do you feel? Here are just a few examples.

Some people say their air feels “stuffy” which is usually synonymous with the word “dusty.” Dust has a way of making the air feel dry and stale, which is why the word stuffy makes sense. Other people might say that their air is “musty” which can be a sign that there’s some slightly foul odor permeating through the air of your home. This can be due to something like mold or stagnant water.

Why are we talking about this today? That’s a good question! Before you can make noticeable changes to your home’s indoor air quality, investing in air quality testing in Belgrade, MT is a smart first step. This gives you a clear understanding of what contaminants are present, so you can focus on solutions.

Different Solutions for Different Problems

The truth is that no air cleaning solution is going to deal with 100% of all the contaminants in our indoor air. While you can get a combination air cleaner, with an air filter and air purifier in place, this is essentially two systems in one and it still might not address everything.

Not only that, but trying to address everything that could be wrong with your indoor air can be an expensive endeavor. You might start spending the same amount of money that a hospital or hotel spends, and that’s usually way out of the budget of a residential customer.

So, invest in air quality testing so you can actually see which contaminant is going to require the most attention and go from there!

Stuffy Air

If your home feels inundated with dust and stuffy air, an air filtration system can help remove dust particles, pet dander, and other debris from the air. For more guidance on maintaining comfort year-round, explore our tips on keeping your building comfortable with proper air quality management. These systems simply filter out any contaminants from your indoor air that are above a certain size. Dust particles, pet dander, dirt, debris, and even hair can get trapped in the filter and removed from your air completely!

Foul Odors

Foul odors can be a sign that mold or mildew is starting to grow somewhere in your home. It could be in a basement, crawlspace, or even in one of the rooms of your home.

Finding the location of the mold infestation is something that mold experts can handle, but our team can help you combat this problem by removing the spores from the air. With an air purifier, mold spores can be eliminated and your home can go back to smelling fresh and clean, while you locate and terminate any mold in your home.

Biological Contaminants

Biological contaminants such as viruses and bacteria require more specialized solutions. In this case, a UV air purifier can help eliminate these hazards. You could also combine a UV air purifier with an air filtration system to tackle both biological and inorganic contaminants effectively.
