Indoor Air Quality For Your Home
The air quality in our homes has become a point of emphasis for homeowners. In recent years, we’ve been reminded how crucial breathing clean air is to our health. Seeing as we spend most of our time in our homes, it’s important to make sure you are breathing clean, healthy air.
In the past, opening the windows for some fresh air was the best solution to clean the air. Today, there are different ways to clean the air in your home, including air purifiers, ERV systems, filters, and more. It’s still nice to open the windows, but that’s no longer the best or only option to make sure you breathe clean air at home.

From Marion to Abingdon and all around the surrounding neighborhoods, we have worked all over the area. From installing an air purifier to changing a filter, we can help you with the solutions that keep the air in your home clean!
Why Should You Improve Indoor Air Quality?
Until recently, indoor air quality was never at the front of anyone’s mind. Today, we all know a bit more about the importance of indoor air quality, but here are some of the highlights and benefits of breathing clean, healthy air:
- Easier Breathing
- Less Sickness (Colds, Coughs, Etc.)
- Smells Fresher (Reduced Odors)
- Cleaner Home (Less Dust, Mold, Must, Etc.)
Indoor Air Quality Facts
Not every home is the same, and not every home is going to have the same indoor air quality issues. Depending on the climate and the environment, each home can be a bit different. We are going to give you a few facts from the EPA that broadly address air quality, and how it impacts all of us.
Air Quality Facts
- Air Indoors Is Often Dirtier - Americans, on average, spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, where the concentrations of some pollutants are often 2 to 5 times higher than typical outdoor concentrations.
- IAQ Impacts Sick, Elderly, Babies, Even More - People who are often most at risk to the adverse effects of pollution (e.g., the very young, older adults, people with cardiovascular or respiratory disease) are often indoors more than those without the same issues.
- Air Quality Has Gotten Worse With Time - Over the years, indoor concentrations of some pollutants have increased due to such factors as energy-efficient building construction (when it lacks sufficient mechanical ventilation to ensure adequate air exchange) and increased use of synthetic building materials, furnishings, personal care products, pesticides, and household cleaners.
