Indoor Air Quality Assessments in Charlottesville, VA
Air quality complaints arrive as symptoms: the house smells musty, the dust returns two days after cleaning, allergies flare indoors, winter dries everyone out, sleep is worse in one bedroom than another. Each symptom has several possible causes, and equipment bought against the wrong one solves nothing at full price. An indoor air quality assessment from Robertson Electric measures the air in your Charlottesville-area home before anything is recommended, which is the order the purchase deserves.
Charlottesville’s seasons take turns supplying different problems: pollen in spring, humidity in summer, dryness through the long heating season, and a sealed house concentrating everything in between. A single symptom can have opposite causes by season, and the same house can genuinely need a humidifier and a dehumidifier, each running its own months. Measurement is what guides the best decision for your space’s comfort.
Schedule an assessment with Robertson Electric by phone, online, or 24/7 chat, and let the numbers pick the fix.
Indoor Air Quality Inspections
The technician measures relative humidity through the house, including basements and crawl spaces where this region’s moisture problems live; particulate levels that quantify dust and allergen load; temperature and airflow patterns that reveal duct and distribution problems; and ventilation performance, meaning how much fresh air the house actually exchanges, a number modern tight construction can fail in one direction and leaky older homes in the other. Visual inspection covers the duct system, filtration, condensate handling, and the moisture evidence walls and windows record. Findings are photographed and assembled into a report you keep.
Additional Services
The report ranks causes and prices options, and the mapping is direct. Humidity high in summer points to our dehumidifier services, and low in winter to our humidifier services. Particulates and odors that persist after source control point to filtration upgrades or our air scrubber services. Duct leakage pulling attic or crawl space air into the system is a delivery repair that beats any treatment device, and combustion equipment questions route to safety checks and our smoke and CO detection services. Sometimes the finding is that the air is fine and a filter habit fixes everything, and the report says so with integrity.

FAQs
What does an indoor air quality assessment include?
Humidity, particulate, temperature, and ventilation measurements through the house, plus inspection of ducts, filtration, and moisture evidence, delivered as a photographed report with ranked findings and priced options.
How long does the assessment take?
A few hours for a typical home, longer with basements and crawl spaces worth examining, which in this region they usually are. The report follows shortly after.
Can the assessment find the cause of one bad room?
That is one of its best uses. A bedroom that sleeps stuffy or a den that smells different has a measurable difference, in airflow, humidity, or particulates, and the room-by-room readings expose it.
Do I need an assessment before buying an air purifier?
It is the cheaper order of operations. The assessment either confirms the purifier and sizes it correctly, or reveals that the real problem is moisture or duct leakage, in which case the purifier money was about to be misspent.
Will the assessment tell me if my house has a mold problem?
It identifies the conditions and evidence, moisture levels, visible growth, and musty signatures, and directs remediation where growth exists. Preventing recurrence is then a moisture-control plan, which the same report scopes.

Robertson Electric is the very best. I highly recommend you buy their service agreement, too - that way you get priority service if you ever get in a jam. They do top-notch work and all of their people are very courteous and a pleasure to deal with.
Dede Haverstick
Robertson has been doing routine service on my two systems for almost 30 years. I believe I have only had to call them out three or four times over the years for emergency service, which is why I continue to keep the service contract. Service techs are always prompt and professional and explain things!

Robertson Electric was able to come on very short notice and fix our HVAC unit quickly just as the weather was getting hot. The serviceman was polite, explained the fix and recommended actions we could take to prevent future problems. Fees were reasonable. We highly recommend this company!
