Home Indoor Air Quality Solutions

American families spend approximately 90% of their time indoors, and indoor air can be 2-5 times—even up to 100 times—more polluted than outdoor air, according to the American Lung Association.

Modern homes are airtight, which is beneficial for keeping your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter. However, this design traps allergens and pollutants inside, negatively impacting your family’s health.

How Indoor Air Quality Impacts Your Health

Indoor air quality can be affected by temperature, humidity, ventilation, and indoor pollutants like cleaning products, paint, and other unseen toxins. But #DYK human skin cells, dust mites, and dust mite feces often comprise a significant percentage of household dust?

These indoor air contaminants get trapped indoors and settle into carpeting, bedding, and other soft furnishings, as well as behind walls or under floors with cracks or gaps.

Furthermore, combustion appliances like heaters, stoves, and dryers can produce dangerous indoor pollutants like carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide. Contact your local Aire Serv for professional carbon monoxide detector installation or replacement.

Signs of Indoor Air Pollution

How do you know if you have indoor air quality issues? Musty odors in your home can be a sign of mold, which can be caused by excess moisture from improper ventilation, high humidity levels, and unaddressed water damage.

If you suspect mold is present in your home, contact your local Aire Serv for a professional evaluation immediately.

You can also look for other common signs of poor indoor air quality, which include:

  • Lingering, unpleasant odors
  • Excess dust buildup, especially around air vents and ducts
  • High humidity levels
  • Discolored fabrics and furniture
  • Visible mold growth
  • Poor ventilation

In addition, compromised indoor air quality can contribute to or exacerbate respiratory symptoms and other health issues, including:

  • Headaches
  • Congestion
  • Fatigue

Poor indoor air quality can cause eye and throat irritation, headaches, irritability, fatigue, congestion, nausea and dizziness. In addition to these symptoms, indoor air pollution can worsen allergies, asthma and other respiratory issues while putting undue stress on the heart and lungs.

Human skin cells, dust mites and dust mite feces often comprise a significant percentage of household dust. In addition, tobacco and vaping products, pets, combustion appliances, carpet/upholstery and excess moisture can all contribute to air quality issues.

However, a lack of appropriate ventilation is a common culprit behind indoor air quality issues. When air can’t circulate properly, allergens, dust and other pollutants build up in your home.

Fresh air can significantly improve air quality, so selecting a fresh air ventilation system is an excellent option for long-term improvement. Investing in an air purification system to help remove contaminants from the air is also a smart choice.

Avoid smoking indoors, use cooking vents, and be sure to change out your air filters regularly. You can also request UV lamp installation to rid your air conditioner of contaminants before they circulate in your home.

A well-maintained HVAC system is essential to improving indoor air quality, but you help keep it running optimally by performing simple DIY checks.
