We use Low VOC Products & HEPA Filtered Vacuums to build a healthy home – Here’s why
We understand that a home renovation or construction project can be disruptive and stressful. That’s why we make it a priority to use low-VOC, low-odor products, HEPA-filtered vacuums, and other similar protections to ensure the health and safety within your home.
What are VOCs and why we avoid them
VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) are chemicals that are commonly found in many household and construction products, such as paints, adhesives, and cleaning products. They can also be emitted by some building materials and furniture. VOCs can cause indoor air pollution and have a variety of negative health effects, including eye, nose, and throat irritation, headaches, dizziness, and even long-term damage to the liver, kidney, and central nervous system.
Low VOC products are those that emit fewer harmful chemicals into the air, making them a safer choice for both you and the True South team. By using these products, we can reduce the amount of indoor air pollution caused by traditional building materials and paints. This not only benefits those living in the home during the renovation but also our team working on the site.
In addition to using low VOC products, we also use HEPA-filtered vacuums during the build process. HEPA filters are able to capture particles as small as 0.3 microns, including dust, allergens, and other pollutants. This helps to keep the air inside the home clean and safe.
We also take other steps to value customer health, such as properly sealing off the work area to prevent dust and debris from spreading throughout the home and providing our team with the appropriate personal protective equipment. We know how important your home is and we take the proper steps to ensure you stay healthy and completely satisfied.
