Why Indoor Air Quality & Mold Testing Matters
Testing is especially important if:
- You or your family experience unexplained allergy or respiratory symptoms
- There is a musty odor or history of water intrusion
- You are buying or selling a home
- Your home has a crawl space, basement, or past moisture issues
- You want peace of mind about the air you breathe every day.
Testing provides objective data, not guesswork.
How Indoor Air Quality, Mold & Radon Are Connected
Radon, mold, and poor indoor air quality often stem from airflow and pressure differences within a home — especially in basements and crawl spaces. Addressing IAQ alongside radon testing provides a more complete picture of your home’s environmental health.
Many homeowners choose to bundle radon testing and IAQ/mold testing for a comprehensive assessment.
Our Testing Method: Breeze® ET Mold Sampling
We use Breeze® ET air sampling cassettes, an industry-recognized and laboratory-analyzed testing method used by professionals across the U.S.
What is Breeze ET?
Breeze ET is a spore trap air sampling cassette designed to capture airborne mold spores efficiently and accurately. Samples are collected using calibrated professional air pumps and then analyzed by an accredited laboratory.
Why We Use Breeze ET:
- Highly accurate and reliable results
- Industry-standard method used by inspectors and environmental professionals
- Identifies mold types and spore concentrations
- Provides clear, lab-backed reporting
This method allows us to compare indoor air samples to outdoor baseline samples, helping determine whether mold levels inside the home are elevated or abnormal.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Testing
Indoor air quality testing goes beyond mold alone.
The air inside your home can contain a wide range of microscopic particles that impact comfort, allergies, and overall health — even when the home appears clean.
Our indoor air quality testing analyzes airborne particulate matter and can identify up to 42 different particle types, including:
- Pollen
- Fiberglass particles
- Skin cells
- Pet dander
- Dust and debris
- Other common indoor and outdoor particulates
Ready to Get Started?
Samples are collected using professional-grade air sampling equipment and analyzed by an accredited laboratory. This allows us to evaluate what is present in the air you breathe and whether particle levels are elevated compared to normal background conditions.
IAQ testing is especially valuable for homeowners experiencing allergy symptoms, irritation, or unexplained discomfort, as well as for those who want a clearer understanding of their home’s air quality. The results provide objective, lab-backed data to help guide next steps — whether that means improving ventilation, addressing moisture concerns, or simply gaining peace of mind.
