    Conditions in Home

    The conditions listed here are things to consider when determining if an indoor air quality investigation is needed. If two or more of these conditions exist, an indoor air investigation should seriously be considered before anyone's health is affected.

  • High moisture or humidity in the home.
  • Previous or recent water damage.
  • Visible mold growth.
  • Musty odors.
  • An air-conditioner or heating system that runs all the time.
  • Dirt in the air ducts.
  • An HVAC (Heating, Ventilation & Air-Conditioning) System that has not had regular maintenance.
  • An HVAC that is in the crawl space or attic.
  • Water drainage from outside to under the crawl space.
  • Windows or siding that is peeling from water damage.
  • Peeling wallpaper or buckled paneling.
  • Must or moldy carpet.
  • Chemical smells (sewer gas, gas leak).
  • Water damage from gray or black water.
