Understanding Common Indoor Air Quality Issues
Many factors contribute to the quality of the air inside your home. While some pollutants enter from outdoors, others are generated right inside your house. Identifying these sources is the first step toward effective IAQ improvement. Common issues include:
- Dust and Allergens: Dust mites, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores are frequent triggers for allergies and asthma. They circulate through your home's air system and settle on surfaces.
- Mold and Mildew: Excess moisture from leaks or high humidity can lead to mold growth, releasing spores that are harmful when inhaled and can cause structural damage.
- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): These chemicals are emitted from common household items like cleaning products, paints, furnishings, and building materials, contributing to indoor air pollution.
- Poor Ventilation: Modern homes are often built to be airtight for energy efficiency, which can trap pollutants indoors if not properly ventilated.
- Bacteria and Viruses: HVAC systems can sometimes circulate airborne pathogens, contributing to the spread of illness.
- Odors: Lingering smells from cooking, pets, smoke, or mold indicate the presence of airborne particles and VOCs.
Addressing these issues requires a targeted approach, often involving a combination of testing, filtration, purification, and ventilation strategies.

Indoor Air Quality Testing & Assessment
The first step in improving your home's air is understanding what's in it. Our professional IAQ testing and assessment services involve analyzing your indoor air for various pollutants. We can help identify the presence and concentration of allergens, mold spores, VOCs, and other contaminants. This assessment provides a clear picture of your current air quality, allowing us to recommend solutions that precisely target your home's specific issues.
Advanced Air Purification Systems
Standard HVAC filters capture some particles, but often aren't enough to remove the smallest contaminants, bacteria, or viruses. Advanced air purification systems work alongside your existing HVAC system to clean the air as it circulates.
- Air Purifiers: These systems use advanced filtration and sometimes ionization or UV light technology to capture or neutralize microscopic particles, allergens, pathogens, and odors.
- Air Scrubbers (like the Aerus Air Scrubber): These cutting-edge systems utilize ActivePure® technology to not only filter air but also send out purifying agents that seek out and neutralize contaminants on surfaces and in the air throughout your home. This is a proactive approach to air and surface purification. Air Scrubber Installation can significantly reduce viruses, bacteria, odors, and other harmful particles.
Air Filtration & Filter Replacement
Your HVAC system's air filter is the first line of defense against airborne particles. However, not all filters are created equal, and regular replacement is crucial. We can help you select the right filters for your system and needs, including high-efficiency MERV rated filters that capture a greater percentage of smaller particles than standard filters. Our Filter Replacement service ensures your system is always using a clean, effective filter for optimal performance and air cleaning.
Duct Cleaning
Over time, dust, dirt, allergens, pet dander, and even mold can accumulate inside your home's ductwork. Every time your HVAC system runs, these contaminants can be pushed into your living spaces. Duct Cleaning involves thoroughly cleaning the entire duct system to remove this buildup. This process can significantly reduce airborne dust and allergens, improve HVAC efficiency, and eliminate musty odors originating from the ducts.
Ventilation Solutions & Thermostats
Proper ventilation is key to preventing the buildup of stale, polluted air. While traditional ventilation involves opening windows, modern solutions can integrate with your HVAC system. Advanced Thermostats often have features that can help manage ventilation cycles or work with systems like energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) or heat recovery ventilators (HRVs) to bring in fresh outdoor air while managing temperature and humidity.
