Indoor Air Quality Services
The building-science side of the air you breathe indoors.
Short answer
Indoor air-quality (IAQ) services evaluate the building conditions that affect indoor air — humidity, ventilation, moisture, and mold-related concerns. Sterling focuses on the building-science side: measuring humidity and moisture, evaluating HVAC-related conditions, and sampling when useful. IAQ findings are informational and are not a medical or health diagnosis.

Thermal imaging reveals hidden moisture.
Drag the slider — infrared exposes the cold signature of moisture behind a wall that looks perfectly normal. It's the difference between guessing and knowing.
