Our Air Quality Solutions
Proper Environmental provides air quality solutions to eliminate these dangerous compounds from your home so you can breathe easily. Our team customizes your indoor air quality services to address the specific issues you’re experiencing.
Our products include:
Energy Recovery Ventilator
An Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) reduces radon levels in your home or business by adding fresh air and creating positive air pressure. Negative air pressure creates a force that pulls gasses, like radon, into the lower level of your home.
Proper Environmental often recommends ERVs when traditional radon mitigation solutions aren’t effective. Our ventilation systems remove pollutants while simultaneously moderating temperature extremes and humidity levels.
Breathe EZ Air Cleaner
The Breathe EZ Air Cleaner is a whole-house air filtration system. It attaches to your forced-air HVAC system and resolves indoor air quality issues. Unlike typical HVAC filters, the Breathe EZ Air Cleaner filtered 98% of airborne radioactive elements in clinical trials.
We recommend a radon mitigation system as your first line of defense, but the Breathe EZ Air Cleaner is an excellent option for further protection. Its ability to electronically charge air particles such as mold, dust and pollen significantly reduces the risk of negative health effects.
Dehumidification Systems
Pollutants such as mold thrive in warm, damp environments and can cause upper respiratory issues, among other health problems. Our dehumidifiers protect your basement or crawl space against excess moisture and create a clean, dry environment. When facing a dehumidification system’s powerful blowing motor, mold spores can’t grow or populate.
It circulates dry air throughout the space and collects water and excess moisture to drain away from your home. Eliminating dust and mold is simple with a dehumidifier from Proper Environmental.
Breathe EZ UVC Light
The condensation on an air conditioning unit’s evaporator coils can attract mold and mildew. Proper Environmental recommends the Breathe EZ UVC Light to resolve air quality problems from a moldy HVAC system. In just a hundredths of a second after coming in contact with UV-C wavelengths, mold and mildew cells die or become unable to replicate.
No extra chemicals or systems are required to eliminate mold and mildew within seconds. Once our team installs the Breathe EZ UVC Light, you’ll notice the difference immediately. Better air quality and circulation mean a healthier environment.
Air Purifiers
Our air purifying systems remove pollutants 10,000 times smaller than human hair. Three distinct stages battle against mold, pet dander, viruses, allergens, smoke, and more:
Indoor Air Pollution Dangers
Any particle or allergen in your home’s air can cause adverse health effects. Our goal is to inform you about the EPA’s indoor air pollution danger levels so you can identify which impacts your family.
Danger Level 5: Dangerous Gasses
Radon and carbon monoxide (CO) are potentially deadly gasses in many homes across the U.S. Approximately one in fifteen homes has high levels of radon gas. Their odorless, tasteless, and invisible nature makes them particularly concerning.
Radon gas occurs naturally as uranium in soil and rock decays. It may enter the home through cracks and penetrations in slabs and foundations. Malfunctioning fuel-burning appliances, such as furnaces, boilers, water heaters, and wood stoves, produce carbon monoxide. Idling automobiles and outdoor power equipment also make CO.
Together, radon and carbon monoxide are responsible for thousands of deaths yearly in the United States and Canada. Further, lung cancer caused by radon kills 15,000 to 21,000 people annually in the U.S. alone.
Danger Level 4: Microbial Growth
Fungus, such as mold and mildew, can cause various ailments. When these microorganisms grow, they produce microscopic spores that can travel on air currents throughout the home. They can quickly enter your lungs as you inhale due to their small size.
Sensitive individuals’ reactions range from mild to severe. Symptoms include:
Danger Level 3: Allergens & Particulates
Common allergens and particulates include:
Danger Level 2: Infectious Illnesses
Indoor air pollution includes airborne bacteria and viruses. Family members and pets carry these contaminants into the home. Infectious disease can include bacterial infections such as:
Danger Level 1: Toxic Compounds
As homes become tighter and more energy efficient, toxic compound concentrations can build up, causing adverse health effects. Items such as building materials, furniture, carpets, paints, solvents, cleaning chemicals, and personal care products can generate toxic compounds inside the home. Conversely, pesticides and dry-cleaned clothing can transport toxic compounds into the house.
Toxic compounds include:
