Indoor Air Quality Assessment
Schedule an Indoor Air Quality Assessment with Thomas Hoffmann Air Conditioning & Heating to get clear answers and a straightforward plan tailored to your home.
If your home feels dusty, smells “off,” triggers allergies, or you’re dealing with humidity problems, an Indoor Air Quality Assessment helps identify what’s really going on and what to do next.
Our team evaluates the key factors that impact your air every day, including filter setup, airflow, humidity control, and ventilation, then recommends solutions that make sense for your home and budget.
What Is an Indoor Air Quality Assessment?
An IAQ Assessment is a whole-home evaluation of the airflow, filtration, humidity, ventilation, and common sources of indoor pollutants—paired with practical recommendations tailored to your home and HVAC system.
You’ll get:
- Clarity on likely causes (not just “maybe it’s allergies”)
- Options to improve comfort and air quality
- Straightforward next steps, with costs explained before any work begins
Signs You Should Schedule an IAQ Assessment
If any of these sound familiar, an assessment is a smart first step:
- Allergies acting up indoors more than outdoors
- Dust buildup shortly after cleaning
- Musty odors or lingering smells from cooking/pets
- Humidity issues (too dry in winter, sticky in summer)
- Condensation on windows or around vents
- Stuffy rooms or uneven airflow
- New baby, elderly family members, or asthma/respiratory concerns
- You recently renovated or installed new flooring/paint (possible VOC concerns)
- You’re unsure whether you need air purification, a humidifier/dehumidifier, or duct cleaning
What’s Included in the Assessment
Your IAQ Assessment is focused on real-world performance—how your home and HVAC system behave day-to-day.
We typically evaluate:
- Airflow & comfort patterns (hot/cold rooms, weak returns, pressure issues)
- Filtration setup (filter type, fit, bypass air, replacement habits)
- Humidity (comfort, static, dry skin, condensation, mold risk factors)
- Ventilation (fresh-air needs, bathroom/kitchen exhaust performance)
- HVAC system cleanliness & air movement (blower compartment condition, common dust pathways)
- Duct system considerations (obvious leaks, poor returns, restrictive designs)
- Home factors that affect air quality (pets, basement moisture, attic leakage, fireplace use, remodel history)
If testing (like particulate or VOC measurements) is appropriate for your situation, we’ll explain the options and whether it’s worth doing—no pressure.
IAQ Solutions We Can Recommend (If Needed)
Not every home needs every upgrade. When improvements are recommended, they may include:
- High-performance filtration (done the right way so your system can breathe)
- Whole-home humidifiers (for winter dryness and comfort)
- Whole-home dehumidifiers (for summer humidity or basement moisture)
- Ventilation solutions (fresh-air strategies that fit your home)
- Air purification options (based on your goals and sensitivities)
- Airflow and duct improvements (especially if some rooms never feel right)
