Indoor air quality (IAQ) refers to the cleanliness and healthfulness of the air inside your home or workplace. Since we spend up to 90% of our time indoors, the quality of indoor air has a significant impact on our health, comfort, and overall wellbeing.
At Air Con Cares, we understand the importance of maintaining excellent indoor air quality to protect your family or employees from harmful pollutants and allergens. Here’s everything you need to know about IAQ and how professional HVAC services can help improve it.
Indoor air can contain a variety of pollutants, including:
Dust and dirt
Allergens like pollen, pet dander, and mold spores
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from paints, cleaners, and building materials
Carbon monoxide and other gases from heating systems or appliances
Bacteria and viruses circulating through HVAC systems
Humidity and moisture that encourage mold growth
Poor ventilation, lack of maintenance, and pollution sources inside the building can all worsen IAQ.
Poor indoor air quality can lead to:
Respiratory issues such as asthma, allergies, and irritation
Headaches, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating
Increased risk of infections and illnesses
Worsening of chronic conditions like COPD
Unpleasant odors and stuffy environments
Maintaining good IAQ promotes healthier living and working spaces, boosting comfort and productivity.
Cleaning air ducts, filters, and vents removes dust, mold, and allergens that accumulate over time.
Use high-quality air filters and replace them regularly to trap airborne particles effectively.
Ensure your space has adequate ventilation to exchange stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air.
Use dehumidifiers or humidifiers to maintain balanced moisture levels and prevent mold growth.
Installing advanced air purifiers or UV systems can reduce bacteria, viruses, and VOCs.
Our team offers comprehensive services focused on improving IAQ, including:
Air duct cleaning and sanitizing to remove contaminants
