When you think about high air quality, your mind is likely to conjure up images of fresh outdoor air. However, air quality is even more important in your home. Indoor air quality depends largely on your HVAC system and how well you maintain it. With knowledge and some help from your local, trusted air conditioning service, you can vastly improve the air quality in your home, making it a happier, healthier place for you and your family. 

3 Steps You Can Take Right Now to Improve Your Home’s Indoor Air Quality

1. Duct Cleaning

The air ducts in your HVAC system can become clogged with dust, debris and other allergens over time. While this is certainly nothing to fret about, it’s crucial as a homeowner to take active steps towards clearing it out regularly. Firing up an HVAC system with clean, new filters will ensure you are not pumping out debris particles into your home and will also help keep the machine running as efficiently as possible, which will save you money in the long run. 

2. Invest In A Great Air Filter and/or UV Light

A really great air filter can catch up to .3 microns of airborne particulates (a strand of hair is about 100 microns!). And if you can run your furnace fan continuously, even better as it will filter your air 24/7. A UV Light will help neutralize and eliminate airborne viruses (and more) to freshen your air and help keep your home a healthy oasis for your family all year long.

3. Try Natural Products

In an attempt to keep their home clean, many turn to harsh chemical products for dusting, mopping and even spritzing our furniture. While these items may give off a fresh scent, the reality is you are inhaling dangerous chemicals that are designed to smell like fresh air. Instead of using the same commercial cleaning products and fragrances you always have, try switching over to a natural cleaner. These products are usually just as effective and will work in harmony with your HVAC unit to sustain a healthy indoor air quality.
