Six things we measure in every home

Wellness by Home looks at a house as the place people live, not just a set of equipment. Six things decide how a home feels to live in. Each can be measured, and the measurements decide what to do first.

What How we measure it What the readings tell us
Air CO₂, particles and how air moves Whether rooms get fresh air, and whether the filter is doing its job
Water Hardness, and a look at the supply, heater and fixtures Whether a softener or drinking-water tap is worth it, and where leaks could start
Humidity Logged over a night in the bedroom and a day in the main rooms Whether winter air is too dry, and whether a humidifier is set up right
Temperature Room by room, against the thermostat Which rooms run hot or cold, and whether balancing will fix it
Light Levels at the places you work and read Where task lighting or a different fixture would help
Sound Where noise comes in and where it carries What a door sweep, a quieter fan or soft surfaces would change

The Guardian review

A Home Wellness Guardian review takes the six measurements in one visit, with a logger left overnight for humidity and temperature. You get the readings in a short written report.

The priority plan

The report ends with a plan in three parts:

  1. Quick wins. Small, cheap changes that the readings justify. Often done the same week.
  2. Bigger work, in order. The one or two things worth doing properly, and which comes first.
  3. Leave alone. The things that measured fine. We say so, and we don’t sell them.

Three levels

  • Essential: the Guardian review, the priority plan, and the quick wins.
  • Enhanced: a Guardian-led package of the priority improvements: air, water, lighting, comfort or safety.
  • Optimum: a phased plan across all six, with upgrades coordinated so nothing is done twice.

Why measure before recommending

Equipment that passes its checks can still sit in a home that doesn’t feel right. The readings find the gap between “working” and “working for you”. They also stop us from selling something the house doesn’t need.
