Do you think your home is affecting your health?

Hayward Score will help you find out. Your answers to the questionnaire will help us understand the important characteristics of your home and how you live in your home. From there we will generate a detailed report that will help you understand your indoor air quality and how you can improve your air and your health!

"I hope others find out their score because I don’t want others to experience the health issues I have had from the mold in my home. It is not fun to constantly be sick!"

Let's get started!

Outdoor conditions can have a powerful influence on the inside of your house. Your climate – whether it is hot, humid, cool, or dry and how it changes seasonally - makes a big difference in how your home handles everything from excess moisture and dust to pets and pests, so it is important for us to know where you live. U.S. and Canada only, please.

How many people currently live in your household?

Although climate affects your home from the outside, you might be surprised how many other factors can affect your home from the inside. For example, the number of people and pets in a house, combined with the size of the house can make a difference in your indoor air quality!

Renovations
Is your house currently being remodelled or renovated?*

When you renovate, you make more than cosmetic changes, you also change your indoor air. Even small projects can have a big impact by increasing dust throughout the house as well as off-gassing of new building materials, paint, furniture, and carpet. An energy retrofit, while cutting your power bill, tightens up your house, so less fresh air is available. Let us know how your home has changed over the years.

Moisture
How many meals do you or your family typically cook at home per week?*

Excess or uncontrolled moisture is one of the most ignored and damaging events that can happen to your home – causing odors, mold, and structural damage, sometimes in as little as 24 hours.

Moisture can also accumulate from routine, everyday activities - like cooking, bathing, even breathing - and combine with other factors in your home in surprising ways. Knowing how you use your home is really important.

Moisture
Have you had any leaks/water damage in your house?

Leaks are common sources of moisture. Some, like broken pipes, leaky roofs, and flooded basements, are obvious and typically fixed quickly. 


Others are not as noticeable or small enough to be considered a nuisance and ignored. However, if left unfixed, these sources can be even more destructive to house and health over time. Help us understand the “leak” history of your house.
