Indoor Air Quality Inspections Most Overlooked by New Jersey Home Buyers !

NEW JERSEY, N.J. - Nov. 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Many home buyers find out about poor indoor air quality approximately 6 months to year after purchase. Testing of indoor air quality is inexpensive when you compare taking a loss on property sale.. Poor indoor air quality can be caused by Mold, Chenicals in building materials and Vapor Intrusion from chemicals such as cleaning fluids, heating oil and gasoline. The indication of poor indoor air quality can be frequent cold symptoms or headaches. In some cases a occupant can smell something in air but in 99% of  indoor air quality cases no odors are identified. Mold canbe  present from a past or continuous wet basement, pipe leak or roof/window water intrusion problem behind the wall. Once Mold beginns to grow behind a wall the air quality will continually get worse.  Off gasing of chemicals from building materials will diminish after a time but certain chemical may trigger hypersensitive immune body defense systems which can cause headaches and sinus infections like Mold.  Vapor Intrusion Issues are caused by chemicals leaching into the ground water under the basement and releasing chemical vapors  into the air entering the basement. Vapor intrusion has become a widespread issue in the country thet the USEPA and New Jersey departemnt of Environmental Protection( NJDEP) has established indoor air quality action levels. Exceeding one the indoor air quality action levels will require NJDEP management of home with high target chemical levels. The source of Vapor Intrusion chemicals can be from a on site heating oil tank, a neigherbors heating oil tank, a gas station or dry cleaners located a mile away. Once a vaopor intrusion target chemical is identified above the NJDEp Action Level a complete receptor evaluation will habe completed to identify all the possible sources.
