Internet Air Testing Companies

Are They Real Air Testing Experts or Just Air Testing Con Artists Out To Bilk Consumers?

Lately, there seems to be a lot of advertising on the Internet for Air Testing of people's homes. Most of these companies have great advertising on their websites but are they really worth the money the consumer is paying for their so-called Air Testing Services. If we look at one of these sites, you will see a disclaimer they put in their reports for their air testing services after you have paid them your hard-earned money. "Read The Next Paragraph"

"The results contained in this report are dependent upon a number of factors over which (Internet Name Removed), Inc. has no control, which may include, but are not limited to, the sampling technique utilized, the size or source of sample, the ability of the sampler to collect proper or suitable sample, the compounds which make up the TVOC, and/or the type of mold(s) present. Therefore, the opinions contained in

this report may be invalid and cannot be considered or construed as definitive and neither (Internet Air Testing Companies Name Removed), nor its agents, officers, directors, employees, or successors shall be liable for any claims, actions, causes of action, costs, loss of service, medical or other expenses or any compensation whatsoever which may now or hereafter occur or accrue based upon the information or opinions contained herein."

Wow, this is really something, on their front page of their website site, they make the following claim which is contradictory to the above statement "Read The Next Paragraph".

"(Internet Name Removed) is the advanced, accurate test kit that identifies over 400 VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds, i.e., airborne chemicals), formaldehyde, growing mold, secondhand smoke and more that may be lurking in your home's air. Only (Internet Air Testing Name Removed) offers an easy-to-use test kit, an accredited laboratory, and easy-to-understand results you can act on for cleaner, healthier air".

This Internet Company is basically saying in their advertising that the average consumer with no training in Air Testing techniques or investigation skills can solve their own Indoor Air Quality Problems if they use their services. There are a lot of experts in the field that would tend to disagree with the claims being made on this website. People who are experts go to school to learn how to do Air Testing properly to get the best results. They have training on how to do Indoor Air Quality the right way.

The next statement on this site is definitely designed to scare you into buying their product.

"Did you know?

1. 82% of homes tested don't meet recommended safe air quality levels.
2. VOCs can be harmful to health, especially for children, the chemically sensitive, and people with asthma.
3. Most VOCs can't be detected by smell.
4. (Internet Name Removed) is the same quality test used by professionals, now available in an affordable do-it-yourself home kit."

So according to this Internet Company, 82% of all the homes in America are polluted. This is definitely going to motivate you to buy their Testing Kit. If we believe this statement, then 3 out 4 of all Americans need to move out of their current houses and become homeless unless we use their Internet Air Testing Services.

Now, let's move out of fantasy land back to reality. Yes, there are problems in people's home's today. The problems are in homes that have had floods, roof leaks, Chinese Drywall, chemical spills, Radon, Lead Based Paint and many other things that happen to them to make them problem homes. Taking an "Internet Air Testing Sample" in a home that was flooded recently will show up positive for mold from our experience. The point being, why pay these "Internet Air Testing Companies" money when you could spend the money on fixing the problem. Hire a local expert in Air Testing that can help you solve the problem, not get you to buy their Air Testing Services which cannot help you fix anything but empty your bank account out.

In conclusion, Air Testing is a field for experts that are trained, licensed and insured to help you solve your Indoor Air Quality problem in your home or business. Using a so-called "Internet Company" is a waste of your hard-earned money because it is not going to identify the source of the problem. The source of the problem can be only found using an Air Testing expert in your home or office. Remember, common sense always works when it comes to Indoor Air Quality.
