Home Air Check™
Simply the best test you can take to ensure the air you breathe at home is safe.
Home Air Check™ is simply the most powerful analysis technology ever developed for monitoring home air quality. Home Air Check monitors for hundreds of airborne chemicals, called VOCs, or Volatile Organic Compounds, that may be present in your home. In fact, Home Air Check is so advanced that it can measure the presence of MVOCs (Microbial Volatile Organic Compounds), otherwise known as mold, within the walls of your home – even if the mold is not visible. The Home Air Check technology is the convergence of multiple methodologies developed by Prism Analytical Technologies, Inc. (PATI) for the monitoring of airborne chemical contaminants. These technologies have been used for over a decade by Fortune 100 companies to evaluate the indoor air quality of their industrial and corporate buildings. Through extensive method development and automation, PATI can now offer this same type of service to homeowners or home buyers with Home Air Check.
The average person spends more time in their home than at work or school, so it is extremely important to know the quality of the home air. With just one inexpensive test, homeowners and potential home buyers have the ability to monitor and assess the levels of air pollutants within the home. Even low levels of VOCs and mold can cause serious health effects, particularly to children and those who suffer from allergies and asthma.
Test for healthy indoor air!
Performing the test is simple. After placing your order, you will receive a Home Air Check test kit from PATI, complete with sample tubes for collecting the air sample and detailed instructions. One test will cover a 2,000 sq. ft. area. After collecting the air sample, you simply return the entire kit to PATI in the pre-paid, pre-addressed shipping container. Once your sample is received by PATI, an analysis will be performed in the PATI laboratory.
After the analysis has been completed, you will receive a report describing the total amount of VOCs and MVOCs (mold) present in your home air. If the total VOC levels are shown to be excessive, you will also receive at no extra charge a half-hour phone consultation with an independent Home Air Quality Specialist. In addition, you’ll receive more information on the type of contamination that is suspected and the potential source of contamination.

Formaldehyde
Home Air Check can also test for the presence of Formaldehyde in your home air. Formaldehyde is a common chemical classified as a Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP) by the Environmental Protection Agency. Because of the unique and precise method in which Formaldehyde is analyzed from the home air sample, a second sampling tube is required to test for this chemical. The price for this separate test is $65. If you would like to test for the presence of Formaldehyde in your home, in addition to testing for TVOC and mold levels, please indicate this on your order form.
Home Air Check is one of the best investments you can make for your health and safety, as well as for those you love most. It provides you with the information you need to know about the air in your home, or in your potential new home, and gives you peace-of-mind that if problems are found, you have resources available to resolve them in a timely manner.
