Why Indoor Air Quality Drops in Dallas Winter
Heating systems recirculate indoor air, which can accumulate:
- Dust and pet dander
- Allergens from windows kept closed
- Mold or mildew in humidifiers or vents
Poor air quality can trigger allergies, worsen respiratory issues, and leave your home feeling stuffy.
Signs You Might Have Poor Indoor Air
- Frequent sneezing, coughing, or itchy eyes
- Dust settling quickly on surfaces
- Musty or stale odors
- Dry, irritated skin
Tips to Improve Air Quality in January
- Change HVAC Filters: Do this monthly for clean airflow.
- Add Air Purifiers: Portable or whole-home systems help reduce allergens.
- Schedule Duct Cleaning: Removes hidden dust and debris.
- Maintain Humidifiers: Prevent mold buildup by cleaning regularly.
- Ventilate When Possible: Even brief window openings help circulation.
