Easy Ways to Improve Indoor Air Quality

Indoor air quality refers to the air quality within and around buildings and structures, especially as it relates to the health and comfort of building occupants. And it’s worth remembering that most of us spend 90% of our time indoors.

So what’s more important than the air you’re breathing in your indoor environment? It affects your day-to-day comfort as well as your short and long-term health.

Dangerous Indoor Air Quality

In fact, indoor air pollution — which can be up to 5 times worse than outdoors — is ranked by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as one of the top five environmental risks to public health. And children specifically are more susceptible to the risks of indoor air contaminants. Their bodies are still developing, making it physically more difficult for them to process toxins like adults do.

All of which highlights the importance of controlling indoor air quality. Keeping the air in your environment fresh and clean is an essential part of staying healthy. Not just from infection but also from allergens and other particles that can cause adverse reactions.

Let’s check out some easy ways to improve your indoor air quality, while also living a green life and reducing your carbon footprint.

How Can Your HVAC System Protect You, Your Family, and Your Co-workers?

The air you inhale at your home or workplace is filtered through an HVAC system, which brings in air from the outside. This means that your HVAC system is introducing outdoor pollutants inside — and if it isn’t functioning properly or regularly serviced, those unwanted contaminants can stay inside.

While no single technology can reduce air contamination in the many forms and sizes in which it exists, Air Control Heating and Air offers a range of indoor air quality solutions to suit the unique characteristics of your home or business and protect those that you care about.

High Performance Filters

Most HVAC filters carry MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) ratings, and filters with higher MERV ratings will improve your home’s indoor air quality. In fact, the correct air filter can prevent asthma or allergy symptoms, eye irritation, sore throats, headaches, fatigue, and many other health problems — in addition to reducing indoor dust and preventing biological growth from damaging your walls, ceilings, floors, or furniture. Filters with high ratings can even keep the flu, colds, and other illnesses from spreading through your indoor environment. The highest MERV ratings are especially useful for people with allergies, or weak immune systems from injuries or diseases, and are often used in hospitals and nursing homes.

• Ultraviolet Lights

While filters alone can be an effective line of defense against indoor air pollutants, HVAC Ultraviolet (UV) lights do a better job at disinfecting and sterilizing the air in your home. These lights, which are normally installed within the HVAC system’s air handler, produce the same kind of ultraviolet light present in sunshine — but at a much higher intensity than the sunlight reaching the earth. They are proven effective at destroying very specific types of air contaminants — including microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and mold spores — by damaging their DNA and either killing them or leaving them unable to reproduce.

• Air Purifiers

Installed in your ductwork, central air purification systems, or “air purifiers”, remove dust, mold, bacteria and viruses from the air circulated throughout your environment at a molecular level — beyond the reach of traditional air filters or UV lights installed at the air handler. Air Control offers a range of central air purification systems, including the industry-leading Solaris PCO Air Purifier, which combines the technologies of germicidal UV light, photocatalytic oxidation, and ionization to break down and kill airborne microbes and disinfect your HVAC air stream. The result is a reduction in the chance of colds, flu, or worse.

• Dehumidifiers

Many of the pollutants responsible for poor indoor air quality are directly affected by increased moisture levels in your home’s or business’s air. Bacteria, viruses and volatile organic compounds tend to increase in humid environments, and any humidity level above 50% supports the growth of mold and helps dust mites thrive. And while modern air conditioning systems are designed to pull moisture out of the air, most (especially in the south) fail to reduce humidity levels to within the ideal range of 30% to 50%. Dehumidifiers not only work to lower moisture to these levels — and improve indoor air quality — they also reduce the strain on your air conditioner and lower your electric bills.

• Preventive Maintenance

In addition to increasing your energy and HVAC repair bills, lack of routine HVAC maintenance can cause pollutants to become trapped inside your equipment and ductwork, lead to the growth of dangerous mold and mildew, and encourage the spread of bacteria and viruses. Air Control offers a range of preventive maintenance programs for your home and business that, in addition to enhancing the performance of your system and lowering your energy bills, can reduce the presence of harmful particles and allergens in your indoor air.

• Duct Cleaning

With limited fresh air coming in, indoor air must recycle through the HVAC system, spreading germs, dust, mold, and allergens. This recycled air moves through duct systems, adhering to the interior of the ductwork, especially in ducts with fiber linings. And when it comes to air ducts, prevention is the best medicine. The way you maintain your ducts can minimize contamination and reduce the need for costly repairs down the road.
