Indoor Air Quality

Ventilation and Filtration are two of the most important factors for improving or maintaining the quality of air in your home or business.

Identifying the pollutants can start with evaluating your heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems’ (HVAC) performance. 

Indoor air quality problems can be contributed to tobacco smoke, fireplaces, wood burning stoves, products from household cleaning, hobbies, biological contaminants such as mold, pollen, mildew (such as wet or damp carpet), pet dander and dust mites. Outside air pollutants may even be caused by improperly operating HVAC equipment due to poorly designed or maintained equipment.  Even high temperatures and humidity levels can affect the quality of your air.   

Most homes built after 1976 were built tighter and more energy efficient.  This causes the pollutants to be trapped in your home. The amount of ventilation is the key, if you don’t get the proper ventilation going in your home or business; pollutants can accumulate to levels that can pose discomfort or health problems.  If you have asthma or allergies, these pollutants can trigger attacks.  The influenza virus is one of the many infectious illnesses that are transmitted through the air we breathe.

 There are many types and sizes of indoor air quality systems available for residential or commercial use on the market.  The key to finding the right one for you, is contacting a licensed HVAC Contractor to determine what your needs and wants are and they can customize a system for your family or business.
