VOC & MVOC Testing
Testing for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and Mold Volatile Organic Compounds (MVOCs) in a home can help identify potential causes for sudden illness. VOCs refer to a wide range of airborne pollutants that can adversely affect human health, while MVOCs are compounds produced by mold during growth.
By conducting these tests, we can assess various factors that may contribute to an individual’s illness, such as household cleaning products, paint, actively growing mold, and other pollutants that could compromise the indoor air quality of a building.
The testing process typically takes approximately two hours to complete. Once the test is finished, the samples are shipped to a trusted third-party laboratory. The laboratory will analyze the samples and provide a comprehensive report of their findings. This report includes detailed information, recommendations, a remediation protocol, and documentation of the inspection.
Upon receiving the results, you will be presented with a thorough report outlining the identified compounds, their concentrations, and their potential health implications. The report will also offer recommendations on how to address any identified issues, including steps for remediation and improving the indoor air quality of your home.
Please note that testing for VOCs and MVOCs is a valuable tool in identifying potential causes of illness in a home. However, it is always advisable to consult with a medical professional to determine the exact cause of any health issues.
