Improve Indoor Air Quality

Align With Nature

Breathing clean air is critical to good health, brain function, blood pressure, stress management and host of other health benefits. It’s vital and since we spend over 90% of our time indoors, it seems reasonable to ensure our indoor air is healthy, but  it’s not! The EPA reports that indoor air is 10x more polluted than outdoors. Let’s work to improve indoor air where you live, work and play.

Indoor Air Pollution

Are the buildings your live, work and play in making you sick? Do you have frequent headaches? Do you know about Sick Building Syndrome? From mild symptoms to more severe illnesses, indoor air pollution is a major health hazard. Check out the indoor air sources and common health symptoms uncovered from over 20 years of research on invisible health hazards.

Improve Indoor Air Services

Buildings are a system, much like the human body. The different components that make up the building system operate in correlation with each other to create the indoor environments. We identify and where applicable, measure pollutants from the building’s air, water, energy and interior circulations, as well as any system failures. We offer Good-Better-Best remediation options to improve indoor air for healthier buildings and healthier people.

The

Assessment

Process

Discovery

Let’s get on the same page!

  • We’ll start by talking about your indoor air concerns, interests, and questions, as well as what you’d like to accomplish.
  • From there, we go over current health symptoms or preexisting health conditions, if any, and what you’ve tried.
  • Next, Lynne will propose an Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Assessment for you to review and decide what you’d like to do.

During this step, Lynne will educate you on how the building systems work together and some easy tips for improving indoor air quality.

Assessment

Using the 38-year proven Building Biology Institute’s (BBI) building science and physics approach, Lynne gets to work on:

  • assessing your space (i.e., building) by identifying and recording observational findings, and testing indoor air, as necessary;
  • comparing those findings and measurements against Building Biology’s No-Slight-Severe-Extreme Concern Health Guidelines that are far lower than big regulatory agencies like the EPA; and
  • indicating what needs No-Recommended-Definite-Immediate Action, so you can easily prioritize.

During the Assessment step, education and tips continue.

Findings & Suggestions

In this final step, Lynne makes a determination of up to three tiered Good-Better-Best Options for improving indoor air, as best as possible. These suggestions are done verbally and/or in a handwritten report packed with a hefty Appendix of Information and Resources. Need a more formal report? Just ask.

You choose what to implement or not, and to what degree and when. If you need assistance from Lynne in implementing any suggestions, that may be explored here, or at a later date – call anytime.

Client Testimonials

“Lynne is very knowledgeable, thorough, and helpful for someone like me. As a MCAS patient, I have to look under every rock and consider all options with regard to what could be causing me to react. Lynne has helped me to do just that, and she made me aware of a lot of new resources and insights. She also gives me good actionable advice on how to clean up our home. I have been living with this condition for a while, and many consultants charge for their time on the call. I was blown away when Lynne followed up a detailed email with recommendations and resources. Even days after our call, she will email me when she thinks of something new. She has been a true help!”

– Brent Croxton

“Lynne provided her services to my family at a time when all four of us were dreadfully sick. Humans and animals, and all sick in different ways, but it was a clue that something environmental was going on because all of us were sick with something all the time, and the common denominator was our living space. You can eat organic and exercise every day and do all the right things…but If your home is not safe, your family and health won’t be either.

Lynne was a great help for us in wrapping up a mold problem in my condo building. And gave me quite the education on EMF. I had never even thought about such a thing, or how that could be impacting everyone’s health. She may have been onto something because one of my dogs developed a brain tumor. His favorite spot to sleep coincided with the highest EMF levels detected in our living space. 

We also intermittently smelled gas/chemicals in our living space for reasons we couldn’t figure out. Lynne conducted an air quality test that showed high combustion gases. She went hunting and found sources of constant outside automobile traffic, swirling wind patterns near our windows, an underground parking garage ventilation into the building and building stack effect. We never would have figured that out on our own. She also found that our drinking water was contaminated. 

While it was a lot to uncover and a bit overwhelming at times, knowing was such a huge relief and critical for us to be better informed to make the changes needed.

Through my experience with Lynne and her skill set, I will never again move into a new space and assume that everything is healthy and safe. Everything in our “luxury” building was not, and we could’ve prevented needless suffering for years had we done this type of thorough testing upon first moving in.”

“When we bought our house, it was under construction so we could make several changes within the builder’s options.  We tried to minimize off gassing material and EMF issues but it was hard since most of the builder’s options were not ‘happy home’ friendly and the builder would not offer any other choices. But Lynne gave us very detailed advice under the limitation with the option–best, better, good so that we did not feel overwhelmed. (There are lots of varieties we need to think of and the remediation would depend on how much we expected and takes time.)

She kindly answered our questions and told us the resources. Lynne helped us and we were happy with the advice she gave us.  Thank you very much!”

“Lynne White, thank you! Our son has been plagued with illness for years with no meaningful respite. After reading about the effects of mold contamination and EMF exposure we set out to study the possibilities and how to do that. Retain a Building Biologist and see their guidance – Lynne White!

Lynne came to our rescue and undertook an exhaustive mold and EMF study of our home and relevant neighborhood surroundings. She clearly focused our attention on matters which needed to be addressed, (even immediately remediating a highly elevated area in our son’s room.) Lynne walked us through her findings and provided an extensive report on those findings with guidance on actions we should take. Lynne has remained available for questions and guidance as issues come up and is always professional and friendly in providing us help. Again, thank you, Lynne!”
