Get Started Optimizing Your Performance
HomeCleanse Athletics partners with sports facilities, gyms and other commercial indoor spaces to scientifically measure and improve the quality of air for athletes so they can perform at their highest potential.
If you've already had an inspection, and have laboratory data with reports and recommendations to review at your home, we recommend a Healthy Home Survey.
Your next step in this process is to conduct a Healthy Home Survey. During this survey, an expert from HomeCleanse will visit your home to conduct a thorough analysis of the various factors that can impact your home's health. This includes evaluating the air quality, looking for potential sources of indoor pollution, and identifying any areas of your home that may be particularly susceptible to contamination.
Creating a healthy home starts with evaluating all the different aspects that can impact the overall health of the environment.
HomeCleanse's Home Health Advisors are trained to conduct a thorough virtual analysis of your home and identify potential issues that negatively impact the health and well-being of the people living there. A consultation with a Home Health Advisor from HomeCleanse is the first step in creating a truly healthy home.
If you're fairly confident mold is causing an issue in your home but not sure what to do next, you'll want to look into our Healthy Home Analysis+ bundle.
You'll receive a consultation with our Healthy Home Advisors and The Dust Test.
The Dust Test is a DNA-based PCR test that tests the dust inside of your home to help us understand if you’re being exposed to hidden sources of mold inside the home. Learning what is in your air and how its affecting you is of utmost importance.
Athletes constantly deal with injuries, inflammation, illness, and cognitive stress, but there’s a hidden threat that often goes unnoticed: poor air quality. This issue can quietly reduce performance and slow down recovery, yet many sports facilities are unaware of the toxins in their indoor environments that impact player readiness and recovery.
While sports have advanced in areas like nutrition, mental health, and wearable technology, air quality is still largely overlooked despite its significant effect on performance. Breathing polluted air daily can lead to chronic inflammation, increased illness, and decreased lung function, wearing down even the most elite athletes over time.
“Inhalation is the major route of entry. Once inhaled, chemicals are either exhaled or deposited in the respiratory tract...Upon contact with tissue in the upper respiratory tract or lungs, chemicals may cause health effects ranging from simple irritation to severe tissue destruction”.

“Individuals who spend time in moldy buildings report numerous adverse health effects, including respiratory problems, chronic fatigue, muscle/joint pain, anxiety, and cognitive problems”

"The people who manage your building have a greater impact on your health than your doctor"
The average person takes 20,000 breaths a day. For athletes, this number can skyrocket, as they inhale up to 20 times more air during training. This means they’re also inhaling up to 20 times more pollutants.
Yet our indoor environments are often the last place we consider as an element of healthy living.
Indoor environments like gyms and sports facilities often get overlooked when it comes to health. The air you breathe plays a crucial role in your performance. In training, competition, and recovery, clean air can make all the difference.
By scientifically measuring and improving indoor air quality, athletes can reduce the risk of respiratory issues, enhance recovery times, and perform at their highest potential. Focusing on the quality of the air you breathe ensures that your environment is supporting, not hindering, your ability to excel. When the air is optimized, so is your performance.
Poor indoor air quality can hinder recovery, reduce performance, and even affect lung capacity. It also increases the risk of illnesses, impacting team readiness and rehabilitation.
"Training and competing at consistently higher levels of air pollution, even below the EPA’s threshold for good air quality and among high-caliber athletes, was associated with slower race times.*"
In the NFL. studies have shown an increase in interception rate and a decrease in QBR due to competing in poor air quality.*
