Lead Surface Test Kit
Lead Test Kit by PRO-LAB is a simple and reliable method to test
for lead and get instant results.
Lead poisoning causes brain
damage to children from birth to 8 years old. Test your home or office for lead.
The PRO-LABŪ Professional Lead Surface Test Kit is the most accurate instant
lead test kit available to the consumer. The NON-TOXIC chemically impregnated
test pads, when moistened with water, provide the most effective and reliable
results possible. The test pads detect the presence of lead to as little as 5
parts per million, (as documented by tests conducted the Midwest Research
Institute).

Microwave Leakage Detector
When a microwave is turned on, microwave radiation is present.
Microwave radiation is good for cooking food, very bad and harmful for your
health. Microwave radiation disappears once the oven is turned off, but until
then, you may be exposing yourself and your family to dangerous levels of
radiation.
What causes microwave ovens to leak? Basic wear and tear,
slamming the door, food particles in the seal or hinge will cause a slight
separation between the door and the housing. Once this happens the radiation
leaks out. An independent survey conducted among the Professional Service
Associates indicated that over 56% of ovens over 2 years old leaked at levels of
10% or higher than the safety standards set by the FDA.
Our microwave oven leak detector is safe and easy to use,
reliable results instantly and reusable. Protect Your Family!

We
know that man-made chemicals, the majority of which were introduced into
society after World War II, have been poisoning our surface drinking water
supplies for years. Over the decades they have filtered down and
contaminated our vital underground drinking sources as well.
Some experts believe the toxins in our drinking
water are the number one health threat causing cancer, heart disease and
lead poisoning. Such chronic illnesses are brought on by the
body's absorption. Water contaminants not only affect our health, but they
can also corrode fixtures, stain and deteriorate clothing and household
surfaces, alter the taste of food and drinking water, and slowly turn hair
orange.

Chlorine
Chlorinating water is necessary for disinfecting; however,
over-chlorination produces by-products known as trihalomethanes. One
trihalomethane, chloroform, is a known carcinogen.
Nitrate/Nitrite
Nitrate/Nitrite is a chemical that seeps our drinking water from
fertilizer, sewage, feed lots and other geological elements. Nitrate over
10 ppm reduces the amount of oxygen available to the fetus in pregnant
women causing "Blue Baby Syndrome" (methemoglobulinemia). It is
also considered an immediate threat to children 6 months to 1 year old,
and is a major health threat to adults.
Iron
Iron is a mineral found in the ground that leaches into drinking water.
Although a certain amount of iron is essential to good health, iron levels
above .3 ppm cause water to taste bitter, stain and discolor our laundry,
fixtures and hair. It is listed under the secondary standards for water.
Water Hardness
Water hardness is a measure of calcium and magnesium in water, neither
of which are potential health risks in and of themselves. But hard water
above 125 ppm tends to form scales inside pipes that, over time, can
actually help to form a barrier from a dangerous lead contaminating
drinking water from surrounding lead pipes. However, too much hard
water buildup can clog pipes and heaters making cleaning operations much
more difficult.
Water Acidity (pH)
Measurements below 7 indicate that the water is corrosive to plumbing,
resulting in lead leaching into your tap water.
With PRO-LAB's kit you can easily test
for all of these water quality problems. All five tests should take less
than 5 minutes and will provide
accurate and reliable results.

Mold & Mildew Test Kit
Medical studies have found that mold & mildew are the
#1 cause of allergic symptoms. The black mold Stachybotrys found in home, office
and school environments has been linked to fatal pulmonary disorders.
Our simple
do-it-yourself test identifies dangerous molds & mildew within 48 hours. Optional lab
analysis is available, which indicates the exact count and type of mold &
mildew present.
PRO-LAB's Mold & Mildew Test Kit utilizes patented laboratory analytical method for
accuracy and reliability.

Radon Gas Test Kit
What is Radon?
Radon is an invisible and odorless radioactive gas which occurs natur ally from
decaying uranium underneath the earth's surface. Though you cannot see, smell, or taste
radon, it is there and may be a problem in your home or office. Radon gas rises through
the soil and seeps through cracks, holes, and drain pipes in the foundation or basements
of buildings. Radon gas can be found all over the United States, and according to the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 1 out of every 15 homes in the United States has
high levels of radon gas.
What can Radon do to you?
Radon gas contains radioactive particles which get trapped in your lungs
every time you take a breath. As these particles break down, they release bursts of
radiation that damage or destroy lung tissue and cause lung cancer, and long-term exposure
may even cause death. The EPA has estimated that there are between 5,000 and 30,000
radon-related lung cancer deaths per year. Two detectors per kit.
All you have to pay is the
$15 lab fee when you return your detectors to Pro-Lab with the pre-paid postage
envelope included in your kit.And you will receive your results within one
week from when we receive your detectors.

Carbon Monoxide Test Kit
What is Carbon Monoxide?
Carbon monoxide is an odorless, tasteless, and colorless
gas which is caused by
incomplete combustion of fossil fuels from
- Gasoline
- Kerosene
- Natural Gas
- Butane
- Propane
- Fuel oil, wood or coal and any other type of fuel.
|
It is estimated that carbon monoxide causes as many as 1,000 deaths per
year in the United States.
Carbon monoxide gas can be emitted by
-
Generators
-
Fire places
-
Gas heaters
-
Gas stoves
-
Gas or oil furnaces
-
Wood, coal or gas dryers
-
Gas barbeques
Recommended test areas are: homes, kitchens, furnace areas,
garages, cars, RVs, campers, boats, airplanes, wood stoves, fireplaces, space heaters and
water heaters.
How fast does the sensor work?
CONCENTRATION |
REACTION TIME |
| 600 ppm (.060%) |
1-2 minutes |
| 400 ppm (.040%) |
2-4 minutes |
| 200 ppm (.020%) |
4-15 minutes |
| 100 ppm (.010%) |
15-30 minutes |
| 50 ppm (.005%) |
30-45 minutes |
Note: Reaction time is slightly faster when damp,
and slightly slower when dry.
Caution: The sensor button will be damaged by halogens, ammoniac
and nitrous gases. Keep away from cleaners, solvents and other contaminants. Harsh direct
sunlight will bleach out sensor button and shorten useful life.
