Indoor Air Quality Solutions

February is American Heart Month. This is a great time to raise awareness about heart disease and how to prevent it. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States. One in four deaths is caused by heart disease every year. Indoor air quality solutions can help those with a suppressed immune system or respiratory issues.

So, how can an HVAC company like Nelson Comfort help promote a healthy heart?

Here’s how we try to make a difference in our customers lives every day.

Why is it Important to Keep My Indoor Air Quality Clean?

Everyone knows that pollution comes from sources such as traffic, factories and wildfires. However, inside your home, there are a wide variety of particles that can affect your health as well. Tiny pollution particles in the air can lead to big problems with your heart.

Breathing quality indoor air is critical to maintaining good health. Most Americans spend a large amount of their time being indoors at their home or office. However, this is even more true during the winter months. In addition, poor indoor air quality can cause allergies, eye irritation, headaches, fatigue, asthma and stress on your lungs and heart.

Above all, consider indoor air quality solutions if you or your loved ones have a weakened immune system or respiratory concerns.

What are the Most Important Air Quality Solutions?

1. Change Air Filters

Changing your HVAC air filters often helps to provide healthy indoor air quality that is free of dust, pollen, allergens and other germs. In addition, clogged air filters are also the number one cause of HVAC system failure.

2. Keep Your Ventilation System Clean for Indoor Air Quality Solutions

Having your vents properly cleaned will decrease the spread of dust through your home. This will prevent health problems especially for people with asthma or allergies.

3. Have Air Ducts Cleaned

Debris, dust, pollen and particles can be released into your home through your supply registers. This may lead to health concerns such as potential allergic reactions. Have your air ducts cleaned by a professional service provider. A poorly trained provider can potentially release more dust, dirt and contaminants into the air.

4. Install an Ultraviolet Air Cleaner

Ultraviolet air cleaners use UV energy to kill contaminants and prevent regrowth inside the home, the same way the sun controls pollutants outdoors. In addition, installing an ultraviolet air cleaner can reduce mold, disinfect your air and provide odor control.

5. Install a Whole Home Air Purification System

Whole home air purification systems can remove germs and bacteria, airborne particles and chemical odors and vapors. As a result, you will have clean and odor-free air throughout your home. Lastly, purifiers can remove and prevent mold and other grime from growing on your HVAC system.
