Air Quality

DANWAY can help analyze the air quality in your home and provide a remediation plan to improve the environment in you house.

We analyze particulate matter to find out what types of pollution may be occuring. Particulates are tiny particles of solid or liquid suspended in a gas. In contrast, aerosol refers to particles and the gas together.

Sources of particulate matter can be man made or natural. Some particulates occur naturally, originating from volcanoes, dust storms, forest fires, etc. Human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels in vehicles, power plants and various industrial processes also generate significant amounts of aerosols. Averaged over the globe, human activities currently account for about 10 percent of the total amount of aerosols in our atmosphere. Increased levels of fine particles in the air are linked to health hazards such as heart disease, altered lung function and lung cancer.

DANWAY can help to analyze your situation today.

Quote from ewg.org, " A hotel at O'Hare International Airport recently began offering special "enviro-rooms" for guests suffering from asthma or allergies to give them relief from coughing, sneezing, wheezing, headaches, chest tightness and nasal congestion.

Enhancing air quality in just two of the hotel's 858 rooms cost thousands of dollars. Hilton wants to assess guest response to the new rooms for a month before deciding whether to expand the pilot program to 300 rooms at a cost of $7,000 to $15,000 per room.

The "environ-rooms" have air purifiers, air-quality monitors, new hardwood flooring, non-vinyl wallpaper, wood furniture, all-cotton bedding and wooden blinds. The rooms are continuously monitored for temperature, relative humidity, odor, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and other gasses." <for more information please click here>
