The Environmental TASC Force (ETF) was developed to help you, as a homeowner, assess your environment in a very affordable way. This program is supported by solution-based trainings to environmental professionals in the areas of indoor air quality, power usage, and drinking water anticipating that clients are interested in doing some of the work necessary to provide enough information for the environmental professional to develop specific solutions.

The concept of the Environmental TASC Force is built upon the foundation of assessment BEFORE solutions are offered. TASC stands for Trained Assessment and Screening Certification and the ETF Partner has been trained to assist you in the assessment process and certified to provide solutions using a team approach. We want to successfully improve the health of millions of families across America and we know that there are many solutions offered that simply need to be matched to specific problems.

Indoor Air Quality Survey

When you complete the IAQ Survey, you will then sample your home for indoor air contaminants. In our experience everyone who has filled out the IAQ survey rated the air quality within their homes at less than 10. Many people believe the air in their home is making them, or members of their family, sick. We wish we could tell you that there is a magic wand out there that would make the air in your home perfect. There sure have been a lot of advertising dollars spent on trying to make people believe in magic IAQ wands, but it's just not true. The fact is homes are very complicated environments with many factors contributing to poor indoor air. If you really want to improve your indoor air you have to address all of the contributing factors, not just one. Developing a total solution to your indoor air quality problems is called a wholistic approach and that is what we are prepared to do for you.

Areas assessed will include heating/cooling systems, general living areas, and moisture prone areas. Surface samples will be sent to a laboratory for analysis quantifying common indoor contaminants within your home.

Thank you for participating in the NORMI National IAQ Screening Project. Remember, magic wands are great in fairy tales, but IAQ management systems, time tables and budgets work much better in real life. You have taken a great first step in having your environment assessed. As soon as we receive your survey, assessment and the laboratory report, we will call you to set up a meeting. If you have any questions between now and then please do not hesitate to contact me.
