If your home or business has poor Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) you and your family or employees may suffer from health problems. At H2 Environmental Consulting Services we have an experienced staff that can survey, test, and work to remediate IAQ problems in both residential and commercial buildings. There are many things that impact IAQ, and in order to determine the best course of action, proper testing must be conducted by experienced professionals.

Effects of Indoor Air Pollution
The effects of poor IAQ may be felt immediately or may not surface for many years. Some of the effects that are more immediate include nose, throat, or eye irritation, dizziness, headache, and lack of energy. Often, these immediate effects are short-lived and relatively easy to treat. One treatment is to eliminate the source of the problem. Some of the long-term effects may include heart disease, respiratory diseases, and even cancer. As you can see, working to improve your IAQ may help to prevent certain health problems.

When you suspect that you are having Indoor Air Quality issues, H2 Environmental Consulting Services has the expertise required to make an accurate assessment and assist you through the necessary process to improve your IAQ. We can sample for such substances as carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, ozone, Volatile Organic Compounds (Vocs) and more.
