What Affects Your Indoor Air Quality?

We believe it’s important to educate homeowners on ways to improve their home. An issue we feel very strongly about is indoor air quality. Ninety percent of our time is spent indoors, which is why it’s imperative to make sure we’re breathing in healthy air at home.

Indoor Air Versus Outdoor Air

You may be surprised to learn that the air inside your home is between two to five times more harmful than the air outside. A simple task like opening windows, even if only for a few minutes every day, can make a huge difference in the quality of your indoor air. As a result, you’ll breathe easier and live a healthier life.

Keep Your HVAC System Clean

A mucky HVAC system allows air-polluting substances to cling to your home and spread. Dirty filters not only spread dust and other unclean particles but they also reduce the airflow in your home.

It’s essential to maintain your HVAC system and make sure you’re regularly replacing air filters when the dirt builds up. If you aren’t sure when your HVAC may need servicing, look for signs such as bad odors or inconsistent temperatures.

Purify Your Home’s Air

An air purifier can increase the quality of your indoor air significantly. Not only does it help you breathe easier by cleaning your home’s air but it’s also useful for easing severe allergy symptoms. If you don’t already own an air purifier, consider investing in one to improve your IAQ.

Improve Health Care

Poor indoor air quality can have detrimental long-term health effects, such as increasing the risk of heart disease and cancer. Cleaner indoor air quality not only improves comfort but also your health and quality of life.
