Why is Indoor Air Quality so Essential?

Because Americans spend more time inside than ever before, Indoor Air Quality is a topic we need to take seriously. IAQ has far more of an impact on health and well-being than most of us realize. And, if indoor air quality is polluted or poor, it can also negatively affects the home itself and some of the woodwork and electronics. Experts say some homes have air quality issues that are five times worse than polluted air in major cities.  When you find out how your indoor air is constantly getting recycled and how most modern homes are made air-tight to save on heating and cooling bills, it becomes obvious why health experts recommend using indoor air quality systems and devices. These products include humidity control systems and air purification devices. Used in conjunction with their residential HVAC equipment, they go a long way to help. Additionally, we at Bridgetown Heating & Cooling offer ductwork UV Lights or ultraviolet lamps and air filtration systems and HEPA filters that benefit you in a variety of ways.

4 Benefits of Improving Indoor Air Quality

As we have discussed, indoor air quality is an essential part of home comfort and HVAC systems. While most homeowners make their indoor comfort a high priority, far too few realize the importance of their Indoor Air Quality. The good news is that more and more residents are catching on and beginning to see the importance of air quality. In the following, your local air quality control specialists here at Bridgetown Heating & Cooling explain a few of the benefits of improving residential air quality. 

BREATHE EASIER

The more indoor air pollution you have in your home, the more likely you are to develop breathing-related problems. Allergy symptoms and asthma worsens when indoor air is threatened. Even if you have trace amounts of indoor pollution, it can affect your stress levels and your health and well-being. Additionally, indoor air purity influences your ability to heal and recover from sickness. Indoor air quality affects energy levels. Your household air quality control experts here at Bridgetown Heating & Cooling offer a line of air conditioners, humidity control units, air purifiers and air filtration systems (HEPA filters and media cleaners) that make breathing conditions optimal all year long.

BETTER SLEEPING ENVIRONMENT

When indoor air quality is improved, it can help you avoid a wide range of health problems often caused by air pollution. When our indoor air quality is optimal, it also helps people sleep better. This minimizes stress by making sleep deeper and more restful. Additionally, cooler temperatures are also said to help you sleep better. Your body is able rest more and relax deeper in cooler environments. This is correlated with lower levels of humidity. In this situation, owning a newer air conditioner or air conditioning unit improves indoor air quality significantly during the summer.

REDUCES HEATING & A/C COSTS

Sometimes people try to lower their air conditioning costs during the summer by turning off the unit and turning it back on when things heat up. This doesn’t help do anything. It’s hard on your equipment. Turning an air conditioner off is much less efficient and makes the machinery work harder. However, if you upgrade to a newer, more energy-efficient central a/c, it will enable you to keep your home cooler at a much lower cost because our newer air conditioners are far more efficient. Our Amana air conditioners are so much cheaper to use it would behoove a homeowner not to at least consider the cost savings. This equipment often pays for itself in a short span of time. Our upgraded air conditioners also improve air quality and offer superior humidity control during the most hot and humid times of the years.

FEWER ALLERGY SYMPTOMS & BETTER HEALTH

If you are allergic to something in your air supply, allergy symptoms are your body’s way of telling you that you might have something in the air and your body doesn’t agree with it. Breathing issues are nature’s way of telling us it doesn’t like something we are breathing into our lungs. The things we breathe in the air eventually make its way into the bloodstream. From the bloodstream, this stuff is carried to the body’s vital organs and various tissues. The more you are exposed to air pollution, the more likely you are to get sick or have an allergic reaction. Optimal indoor air quality gives the body time to recover and stay healthy so you are at your best when you go outdoors.

Signs You Have Air Quality Problems

In addition to health issues, the house or the building itself can often give warning signs that indoor air quality needs to be taken care of. Our all-round air care specialists here at Bridgetown Heating & Cooling explain a few of these signs in the following:

Dusty Surfaces, Vents & Registers

If you have dust in your home, on surfaces and around air vents, it might be air pollution causing the problem. Air goes around air vents the most, so if there’s something in the air, it’s likely to deposit itself around them. If you’re finding dust building up here, an air filter upgrade, media air cleaner or HEPA filter will help. A HEPA filter will also help with other types of pollution such as particles, smoke, mold, pollen, pet dander, dust mites and more.

Strange Odors Inside

If you notice any strange odors that you suspect might be from mold, chemicals, mildew, pests or anything else, it’s an indication your air quality is compromised. Even chemicals from air fresheners and cleaning products can be an issue in addition to excessive dust, dirt and debris on surfaces in the home, which indicate indoor air quality issues and can cause odors.

High or Low Humidity Levels

Humidity levels are an essential air quality issue in their own right. The relative level of humidity of a house or a work place should always be kept between 35% and 50% to ensure optimal comfort levels in addition to preventing microorganisms. Low levels of humidity cause damage to the woodwork in a home or commercial building, in addition to all the health issues it can cause. High levels of humidity make the place uncomfortable and they can create a breeding ground for mold, mildew, and other microbes that thrive in moisture-rich environments. These types of problems can be resolved effectivly with the use of a humidity control product, such as the humidifiers and dehumidifiers we at Bridgetown Heating & Cooling sell and install at reduced prices.

Air Distribution & Regulation Problems

Uneven temperatures aren’t a good sign indoors. Hot and cool areas with uneven temps are usually caused because of poor air distribution. This usually causes or is a result of an indoor air quality issue. If your home comfort system isn’t sustaining proper temperature and humidity levels, your indoor air quality is likely suffering the effects of this.

Air Quality FAQ

How does air quality affect health?

If you are inhaling polluted air, harmful toxins are able to get into your lungs. Once inside the lungs, it goes to the bloodstream where they end up getting transported to internal organs and vital tissues. Serious pollution can cause all sorts of health problems. It causes asthma problems, cardiovascular diseases, other breathing-related conditions and even cancer. In extreme cases, it can cause death. While some types of air pollution aren’t very harmful, other types of pollution (like gases) are bad for health and wellbeing.

What is Indoor Air Quality?

Studies indicate Indoor Air Quality plays a vital role in health and well-being. Neglecting your indoor air quality comes with great cost and one that is usually paid with one’s health and well-being. Why is this the case? It turns out that the air in most dwellings, offices and other places of work is often more polluted than the air outside of these buildings. To make matters worse, most Americans spend about 90 percent of their day inside. Because dwellings usually lack sufficient filtration and ventilation, the air quality levels in our homes is something we need to take far more seriously. Experts at the EPA define the term “Indoor Air Quality” as the quality of air inside a building or home and how it affects the people inside the building or home. They warn that indoor air quality problems (or IAQ problems) can have a serious impact on health and well-being. We offer a wide range of different air quality control systems, cutting-edge air purification products, humidity control systems, air filtration devices, ventilation systems, Germicidal UV Lights, ionization products and more. We offer wifi thermostats and smart thermostats that enable you to monitor your air quality as well as your temperature and control it all from your phone. We also offer air duct cleaning (with limited availability) and maintenance services that are sure to keep your systems running smoothly to help improve air quality in your home or building.

With indoor air pollution being such a widespread health hazard in homes today, we encourage you to safeguard your dwelling against household pollution by identifying the various sources of it and utilizing high-tech air filtration, ventilation, and air purification products you can afford. In addition to keeping home humidity levels inside the recommended range of 35% and 50%, we also strongly urge you to keep up with having seasonal maintenance performed on your home heating and cooling equipment. Our preventative maintenance services help with indoor air quality as well HVAC equipment longevity and overall efficiency.

What are the signs of poor air quality?

Many of the signs of poor air quality are health-related problems. Poor quality air can cause headaches, dry skin, dizziness, fatigue, shortness of breath, sinus problems, irritation to the eyes, nose and skin and other issues. If you notice unusual odors, it should be taken as a sign that something is likely compromising your house’s indoor air quality. If you’re finding you’re having to replace your HVAC systems’ air filters more frequently because they are getting dirty faster than normal, it’s another sign. Other symptoms include high levels of humidity or even low levels of humidity. Low humidity causes dry air, excessive static electricity in the home and sleep problems.

How do I improve my indoor air quality?

To promote optimal air quality in your home or business, you need to test for sources of indoor air pollution first. Based on the results of an air quality test, you will then remove sources of air pollution and reduce emissions. Some sources of air pollution contain harmful toxins like asbestos, gases or radon. These need to be addressed immediately. Other sources can be adjusted to reduce their emissions. If necessary, appliances can be replaced, building materials removed and certain chemical products can be substituted.
