Facts about the Quality of Air in your home.
Indoor air is enclosed, which means proper ventilation is essential to keep it circulating. However, pollutants persist because most ventilation systems and filters aren’t effective enough—and if the garden where air exchange occurs is also contaminated, the problem worsens. When we can smell or taste the pollution, it can negatively impact our health. This is especially concerning given what we experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic.
A few companies in the market are attempting to tackle this issue, but they mainly focus on testing or monitoring air quality rather than actually purifying it. HVAC providers typically maintain or install central air systems, but they don’t address deep air-cleaning processes. That was my observation back in 2010, and unfortunately, it still holds true today.
Signs of indoor air quality problems
- Unusual and noticeable odors.
- Stale or stuffy air.
- Noticeable lack of air movement.
- Dirty or faulty central heating or air conditioning equipment.
- Presence of molds and mildew.
- Feeling noticeably healthier outside.
Common Sources of Air Quality Problems
- Moisture and biological pollutants- traces from Covid-19.
- Combustion products.
- Formaldehyde (HCHO) from durable press draperies and other textiles.
- Radon- a radioactive gas from soil and rock beneath and around the home’s foundation, groundwater wells and some building materials.
- Asbestos found in most homes more than 20 years old.
Monitoring devices
To begin, we collect test samples and send them to a laboratory to assess the current air quality in your home. Once the initial analysis is complete, we use electronic monitoring devices to track key environmental parameters. While sensor technology and diagnostic procedures are advancing, current market options still have limitations for certain metrics. That’s why it’s important to be mindful of which parameters you want to monitor and how much you’re willing to invest.
In the meantime, we adapt industrial-grade equipment and modify it for home use. The technology is available—we’re just waiting for it to become more accessible. See our demo some of these products- our trade show.

- The EPA Agency maintains these monitoring with accuracy and everywhere, not surprise as the GPS can help us for the location address. An app is available for free, named AirNow.
- AirNow– Accurate, local, free of charge!
- The EPA’s free AirNow app is easily searchable, delivers air quality readings in every corner of the US, and lets you know in advance of upcoming air quality problems.
Closing thoughts
- A service provider will collect your Home Air Quality lab tests. With the latest technology now accessible and your increased understanding of the results, you’re well-equipped to consider their recommendations. From there, you’ll be able to monitor your air quality indicators in real time independently.
- You might consider checking out this service company- We had a conversation with one of their agents back in 2015, shortly after we purchased our new home, about a proposal to upgrade our HVAC system. The pricing was quite high, so we’d recommend using it for reference rather than as a go-to option. (https://happyhiller.com/hvac/indoor-air-quality)
Methodology to use our trade show- a demo for some of these products.
Air Parameters: Use a single set consisting of two devices to measure air quality in each room sequentially. Only one set is needed, as the devices can be rotated between locations.
- A pair of devices designed for environmental monitoring: one is a comprehensive unit measuring Temperature, Humidity, CO2, CO, particle size PM2.5 & PM10, Formaldehyde (HCOCH), and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), excluding CO2. To complement it, a smaller, budget-friendly device is included to specifically measure Temperature, Humidity, and CO2.
- Microbial Presence Assessment (Bacteria, Fungus, or Virus): No device is available. Collect air and surface samples and submit them to a laboratory for analysis. Should the presence of bacteria, fungus, or virus be confirmed, a specialized contractor will carry out appropriate remediation treatment.
- If your home’s air is noticeably dusty, start by hiring a Professional Contractor to clean the air ducts. Once that’s done, invest in an Air Purifier to supplement your Central Air Conditioning Unit. After installing it, reassess the air quality to ensure improvement. Then simply maintain the purifier’s operation- rotate its use room by room to keep the entire house fresh.
Just like running your vacuum regularly, power on this air purifier every two weeks and schedule a thorough deep-cleaning service every three years.
Summary: We require two categories of devices—two monitoring units and one air purifier. Numerous manufacturers offer products in both groups, and pricing varies based on the specifications and limitations of each device.
