Indoor Air Quality Technology Helps You Stay Healthy
In recent weeks, Southern California has seen stretches of poor air quality due to particle pollution caused by winds blowing dust through the area. These unfavorable conditions led to local advisories, with experts recommending residents, particularly those with health concerns, stay home in an effort to avoid breathing in the unhealthy air.
Pollution and other air quality issues are not uncommon, and it’s important to be prepared at home, especially if you or your family are considered members of at-risk groups. But, it’s not only the air outside you should be monitoring. Are you doing enough to keep the air in your home clear of possible irritants?
When air quality in the Coachella Valley drops, indoor air quality (IAQ) solutions can help safeguard your home—filtering out harmful pollutants and creating a healthier space for you and your family. Based on the results of an air quality test, expert technicians can recommend the system—or combination of systems—that will best suit your home.
Take Your Indoor Air Quality Seriously
Do you know if you or your family are at risk for health issues connected to air quality? If you fall into one of the following groups, you should take the steps to test your air and determine if you should invest in IAQ equipment:
- Severe allergy & asthma sufferers
- Immuno-compromised people
- Individuals with heart or lung disease
- Elderly people and children
These groups and other at-risk individuals may be more severely affected by poor air quality. As well as avoiding the outdoors during advisories, it may be beneficial for these homeowners to invest in IAQ equipment, to ensure they are breathing the healthiest possible air.
Solutions for a Healthier Home
There are a variety of upgrades homeowners can make to their heating and cooling systems to improve their indoor air quality. Based on your home, health, and budget, a trained technician can help you determine what the best fit is for your lifestyle.
Indoor air quality equipment options include:
- Indoor air cleaners
- Air purifiers
- Ultraviolet (UV) lamps & purifiers
- Indoor air filters & filtration systems
In addition to living in areas with poor air quality, regular day-to-day life can also affect your IAQ. Most homeowners could benefit from investing in products for cleaner air! Common indoor irritants include pet dander, secondhand smoke, mold and bacteria, and other allergens. These can also affect your wellbeing if not treated!
