Healthy Home Checkups
Pollutants commonly found in households trigger asthma, allergies, chronic disease and other negative health effects. You can protect your family’s health by adopting healthy practices in your house.
We’ll show you how to improve the air quality in your home, prevent pests, avoid exposure to pollutants that accumulate and contaminate your home.
We’ll help you set goals that you can achieve! Every change you make to promote a healthy home is a good one and every change that endures will benefit your family’s health.
Our approach is based on the Seven Principles of Healthy Homes, which includes keeping the house dry, clean, pest-free, ventilated, safe, contaminant-free and well-maintained.
What Exactly is a Healthy Home Checkup?
Our Healthy Home Evaluation is a cost-effective way to check for 160 critical health and safety risks that are common in many homes. It relies on a science-based protocol that uses a visual assessment plus diagnostic testing to check your home for hazards and deficiencies, and then provides practical recommendations to correct them.
“Poor indoor air quality contributes to cancers, cardiovascular disease, asthma and other illnesses. Poor water quality can lead to gastrointestinal illness and a range of other conditions, including neurological effects and cancer. Some chemicals in and around the home can contribute to acute poisonings and other toxic effects.”
