Indoor Air Quality Concerns?

8/7/2020 (Permalink)

Indoor air quality can vary for many different reasons depending on your climate and geographical location. If you are concerned about your indoor air quality there are a few things you can do to improve the situation.

A dirty ventilation system is most likely the main reason causing bad indoor air quality. A ventilation system is also known as an HVAC system (which stands for heating, ventilation and air conditioning) and helps air circulate through a home or business. The HVAC is responsible for moving all the air throughout your building whether it’s for heating or cooling purposes. As all of the air constantly moves through a structure it collects pollutants that can build up over time. If your HVAC system has been running for a while with little to no attention placed on it could be circulating one or more of the following: Dust, Pollen, Odors, Dirt or other contaminants.

Make sure to pay attention to your HVAC system and if you start to notice worse air quality, then it should be a priority to get it inspected and cleaned.
