What is Healthy Housing / Business services
A Healthy building / Housing inspection is like a home or commercial building inspection, but instead of finding material defects like roof leaks, Electrical problems, plumbing issues we are looking for real health hazards or safety hazards. Pacwest Innovations uses hi-tech equipment to test the air quality, Radon levels, PM1 levels, VOCs, PM1,2.5 and 10, down to Humidity. We Also test Electromagnetic fields levels also known as EMP.
We all face a variety of risks to our health as we go about our day-to-day lives. Driving in cars, flying in airplanes, engaging in recreational activities, and being exposed to environmental pollutants all pose varying degrees of risk. Some risks are simply unavoidable. Some we choose to accept because to do otherwise would restrict our ability to lead our lives the way we want. Some are risks we might decide to avoid if we had the opportunity to make informed choices. Indoor air pollution and exposure to hazardous substances in the home are risks we can do something about.
In the last several years, a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people spend approximately 90% of their time indoors. Thus, for many people, the risks to health from exposure to indoor air pollution may be greater than risks from outdoor pollution.
In addition, people exposed to indoor air pollutants for the longest periods are often those most susceptible to their effects. Such groups include the young, the elderly, and the chronically ill, especially those suffering from respiratory or cardiovascular disease.
