Air Quality Inspection
At BPHomes, we understand that clean air is the foundation of a healthy home. Our Air Quality Inspection goes beyond just comfort—it safeguards your well-being. Using advanced testing protocols, we assess everything from ventilation and pollutants to allergens and humidity to ensure your indoor air is fresh, safe, and breathable.
Overview Service
Why Air Quality Inspection Matters
Indoor spaces can harbor hidden pollutants like VOCs, mold spores, carbon monoxide, and allergens.
Poor airflow, blocked vents, or old HVAC systems can contribute to stale, unhealthy environments.
Inadequate ventilation can lead to conditions such as asthma, fatigue, and Sick Building Syndrome.
High dust levels and pet dander accumulation—especially in older homes—pose serious health risks.
