Know What You're Breathing.
State-of-the-art air quality testing, and fixes that actually work.
We measure particles, chemicals, CO₂, humidity, mold risk and duct leakage room by room, then hand you a plain-English report and a prioritized plan. No guesswork. No pressure.

Most Comfort Problems Are Air Problems.
Allergies that never quit, dust that comes right back, a musty closet, a bedroom that always feels clammy. These are almost always measurable, and almost always fixable once you know the cause.

A Complete Look, Not a Quick Glance.
Professional-grade instruments, used room by room and at the equipment, so the recommendations are based on your home and not on a sales script.
Fine particles (PM2.5)
Dust, smoke, pollen and dander small enough to reach deep into the lungs.
Target: under 12 µg/m³VOCs & formaldehyde
Chemical off-gassing from cleaners, furniture, paint and new construction.
Target: low & fallingCarbon dioxide (CO₂)
The best everyday signal of whether your home is getting enough fresh air.
Target: under 1,000 ppmHumidity & dew point
The single biggest driver of mold, dust mites and that sticky Louisiana feel.
Target: 40–55% RHCarbon monoxide
A safety check on every gas appliance, furnace and attached garage.
Target: zeroMold risk
Moisture readings, surface checks and coil inspection where mold likes to hide.
Target: no active growthDuct leakage & blower door
How much air your ducts and house leak, and where the attic air is getting in.
Target: under 10% duct leakageStatic pressure & airflow
Whether your system can actually move the air it was designed to move.
Target: within equipment ratingFrom First Visit to Fresh Air.
A clear, repeatable process, with a written report you keep either way.
- 01
Listen & walk through
We start with your concerns: allergies, odors, hot rooms, dust. Then we walk the home, attic and equipment.
- 02
Measure room by room
Particles, VOCs, CO₂, humidity, temperature and CO in every main living space, plus optional 48-hour logging.
- 03
Test the system
Static pressure, airflow, duct leakage and, where useful, a blower door test to find where outside air gets in.
- 04
Your air quality report
Plain-English results, scored and color-coded, with photos and the likely cause of each problem.
- 05
Options, never pressure
A prioritized plan with good, better and best choices. Start with the biggest win, or do nothing yet.
- 06
Re-test to prove it
After any work, we measure again so you can see the improvement in real numbers.
Your Results, in Plain English.
Every assessment ends with a report like this one. Each reading is compared to a healthy range, marked Good, Watch or Action, and tied to a specific fix.

Fixes That Move the Numbers.
We only recommend what your results call for, and we re-test to prove it worked.
High-efficiency filtration
MERV 13 media cabinets and properly sized returns that capture fine particles without choking airflow.
UV-C & PCO purification
Coil and in-duct UV to keep the cooling coil clean, and photocatalytic purifiers to reduce odors and VOCs.
Whole-home dehumidification
Dedicated dehumidifiers that hold every room at 45 to 50 percent humidity, even in shoulder seasons.
Fresh-air ventilation (ERV)
Energy recovery ventilators that bring in fresh air, lower CO₂ and VOCs, and do not add humidity.
Duct cleaning & sealing
Cleaning where it helps, and sealing leaky ducts so attic dust and humid air stay out of your living space.
Humidity-smart controls
Thermostats and equipment settings tuned to remove moisture, not just lower the temperature.
Continuous air monitoring
Optional smart monitors so you can see your air quality, and so we can spot problems early.
Coil & drain remediation
Cleaning and treating coils, drain pans and condensate lines where musty odors usually start.
Northshore Homes Have Unique Air.
Our climate makes air quality a year-round issue. Testing is how you know which of these is affecting your home.
- Relentless humidity. Oversized or poorly tuned systems cool fast but leave moisture behind.
- Long pollen seasons. Pine and oak pollen find every leak in your ductwork.
- Storm and flood seasons. Water intrusion can leave hidden mold behind for months.
- Ducts in hot attics. Small leaks pull hot, dusty, humid attic air straight into living spaces.
Especially Worth It If...
- Someone has allergies or asthma
- You have a new baby or aging parents at home
- You work from home
- You just renovated or moved in
- You have had water or storm damage
- Your home smells musty or feels sticky

Air quality questions, answered.
How long does an air quality assessment take?
The in-home visit typically takes two to three hours. For a fuller picture, we can leave data loggers in place for 48 hours to capture humidity and CO₂ swings overnight. (Demo copy: timing to be confirmed.)
Is there a charge for testing?
The assessment is a paid diagnostic service because it involves specialized instruments and a written report. Pricing will be listed here at launch. (Demo copy: pricing to be confirmed.)
Will you try to sell me equipment?
We show you the numbers, explain what they mean and give you options, including low-cost fixes and "keep an eye on it" when that is the honest answer. You decide. No pressure.
Do I need an air purifier?
Maybe not. Many homes improve more from humidity control and duct sealing than from a purifier. Testing tells us which fix will make the biggest difference for your money.
Can you test after water damage or a renovation?
Yes. Post-flood, post-storm and post-renovation testing are common requests, and a good way to confirm your air is back to normal.
