Welcome to CreateHealthyHomes.com Oram Miller, BBEI, Certified Building BiologyTM Environmental Inspector You have reached the website for Environmental Design and Inspection Services, dedicated to improving the impact that buildings have on the health of your family and employees. Use this site to find ways to make your home and office more healthy. We offer environmental home and office inspections. We also consult on ways to design and build a healthy new home and office or remodel an exisiting one. Telephone consultations for all services are available throughout North America. On-site evaluations are available for those living in Minnesota, northwestern Wisconsin and surrounding states. "EMF" (electric and magnetic field) evaluation and mitigation is our specialty, although all Building BiologyTM services are available, including the detection of chemical outgassing and leaks of natural gas and carbon monoxide, and screening for mold, lead, radon and asbestos. We also specialize in providing consultations for healthy new home design and construction. Click on Services for the full range of the services that we offer. To learn about programs that certify your new or remodeled home as "green" and sustainable, click here. Our healthy building evaluations identify and reduce household causes of fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue and chemical sensitivities. Over sixty percent of our clients already have these symptoms. Almost all clients report improvement once the environmental sources of their ill health have been identified and reduced. The remaining forty percent of our clients are those who recognize the risks of an ill house and consult with us to keep these problems from developing in the first place. Click on Comments from Clients to read unsolicited reports from people whose health has improved due to correction of environmental problems identified through one of our healthy home evaluations. Click on Tips for a Healthy Home to read and print out a handout that provides useful information on the Building BiologyTM approach to such topics as eliminating EMFs in your home and office, improving air quality, and reducing chemical sensitivities and mold. These same topics are discussed in more detail in several Articles about each of these subjects. Click here to see the schedule of upcoming healthy home lectures presented by Oram in the Twin Cities and surrounding areas. This schedule is updated regularly as new lectures and workshops are added. Learn all about Building BiologyTM in the About section. This page informs readers about its history, what it provides, and why people choose Building BiologyTM to create a healthier home and office. Check back to this website from time to time as the material contained within it is revised and updated as new products and knowledge become available. To substantiate our position that human exposure to Electro-Magnetic Fields (EMFs) is harmful and that currently accepted levels of exposure are too high, click on research citations. There you will find links to numerous websites where you can find documentation of these effects. A companion page is just below it, including links to websites with research citations on the adverse health effects of wireless communications and information-carrying radio frequencies from such devices as cell phones and wireless internet routers (Wi-Fi). These two pages are updated regularly as new information is released on the harmful effects of exposure to EMFs, primarily in the European and Canadian press. Oram Miller, BBEI, who personally conducts these on-site and telephone consultations, is available as a speaker and writer on the topic of healthy homes. Click on Lecture Schedule to see the schedule of upcoming presentations. Click here to see articles written by Oram. We also offer a healthy new building manual, compiled by Oram Miller, BBEI in collaboration with George Swanson, BBEI, builder and Building BiologistTM in Austin, Texas, and Wayne Federer of Wisconsin. The manual is currently under revision and should be available by the end of this year or early next year. It will provide healthy protocols for the design and construction of new buildings and the healthy remodeling of existing ones. It is based upon protocols taught by the International Institute for Bau-biologieTM and Ecology (IBE) in Clearwater, Florida. You can be notified when the New Building Manual is published by clicking here. If you are in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota and are interested in learning more about healthy houses, you are welcome to attend a study group called the Mid-West Building Ecology Coalition. We are an open forum that meets monthly to discuss the knowledge of Building BiologyTM. For more information, click here. The meetings are free and open to all. All services are based upon the twenty-five Principles of Bau-biologieTM, the German words for "Building BiologyTM." There is also a page with links to a report and letter written by Oram Miller, BBEI to the Saint Louis Park, Minnesota, City Council concerning the potential dangers of a Wireless Internet (Wi-Fi) system that is being deployed throughout this suburb of Minneapolis.
