Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Pro-labs test kits have proven reliable and accurate within the constraints of discovering what may or may not be present in an enclosed living space. Just pour the liquid into the cup, close it, and place it in front of the vent.

I bought nine kits for about $10 each so i could get wide coverage around the house.


I didn't send any to the $40/sample lab.


The lab test being a separate $40 fee is clearly stated online for those willing to actually read.

Shipping


I had a question or two about my specific results so i called customer service, a representative named kyle hyde took the call ...  Read More
