We’ve written quite a few articles about how crawl spaces have a lot of input on our homes’ air quality. Unless the crawl space has been encapsulated or built as a “conditioned” area, it will “communicate” with your home’s air:...
A properly sealed, moisture-protected, and insulated crawlspace will increase comfort, save on energy costs, improve the durability of the home, and reduce entry of moisture, radon, and other potential irritants or pollutants into the home. (Technology FactSheet: Crawlspace Insulation) Let’s...
When you’re looking at the systems of a home, some systems are easy to understand and some are not so apparent. Drains: easy, every water appliance has to have a drain. Vents: why do we need a vent system? ...
Anything with the word “tar” behind it gets my immediate skepticism. After all, tar and most of its forms, like roofing tar, have an awful stickiness and smell to them. Coal tar is a known carcinogen, and although it was...
We are all for wildlife–when it stays in the wild. Some critters think they have hit the jackpot when they come into your home, however, and it takes some work to get them out and keep them out. Here are...
† Third-party testing indicates that devices with the Polar Ionization™ technology have proven effective at helping reduce Mold, Bacteria, PM2.5, SARS-CoV-2, E. Coli, MRSA, C. Difficil, VRE, TB (M Terrae), and more. These studies are often in controlled laboratory environments or through commercial 3rd party partners. Results will vary due to many real world variables including humidity, contamination concentrations and types, air flow, altitude, temperature, and more.
†Third-party testing indicates that devices that utilize the Air Oasis® AHPCO® catalyst PCO technology have proven effective at helping reduce, MERS CoV, TVOCs, Mold, Bacteria, Ammonia (NHS), Hydrogen Sulfide (HS2), Respiratory Suspended Particulates, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Aspergillus versicolor, Penicillium chrysogenum, E. Coli, Conidia and Hyphae from Alternaria, spores from Dreschlera, Cladosporium and Stachybotrys chartarum, and more. These studies are often in controlled laboratory environments or through commercial 3rd party partners. Results will vary due to many real world variables including humidity, contamination concentrations and types, air flow, altitude, temperature, and more.
†Coverage estimates are based primarily upon our 15 years of experience with clients and their real world environment and goals. Various lab, third party, and real world studies have shown varying speed and efficacy in different room types and sizes. Recommended coverages are for average contamination levels in residential spaces. Results will vary due to many real world variables including humidity, contamination concentrations and types, air flow, altitude, temperature, and more.
