With everybody spending more time inside of their homes in recent months, indoor air quality has become more important than ever. One of the biggest factors that contributes to the comfort and health inside of your home is indoor air quality (IAQ). Though we like to think of our house as a safe haven for us, the fact is that sometimes your indoor air is more polluted than the air outside.  

Here at Craig’s Services, one of the specialties of our team of HVAC professionals is improving indoor air quality for families in the greater Bountiful area. Here are some of the ways in which you can improve the indoor air quality of your home.

 

  • Maintain Cleanliness

 

The first way in which you can improve the air quality of your home is by keeping it clean. Removing excess dirt, debris, and dust from floors and surfaces will help prevent it from being picked up off the floor and transferred through the air. Home cleanliness can also be extended to keeping your HVAC ducts free of dust and debris. If it has been a while since you hired an HVAC contractor to check your system, contact Craig’s Services for a checkup to ensure that your air conditioning and heating systems are working at maximum efficiency.

 

  • Humidity Control

 

In an ideal situation, your home’s humidity will be around 30 to 50 percent. While some homes maintain this range as a default, others may need to install a humidifier or dehumidifier in order to reach it. The right amount of humidity helps keep allergens under control.

 

  • Houseplants

 

Besides adding some beauty and green to your home, houseplants can also act as natural air purifiers. Some varieties of common houseplants that have detoxifying properties include English ivy, peace lilies, and chrysanthemums.

 

  • Install an Air Filter

 

One of the ways in which our technicians help improve indoor air quality is by installing air filtration systems. First, we’ll do an indoor air quality testing procedure in order to see what type of filter is right for your particular situation. We have a number of different equipment protection and performance packages that include dynamic air cleaners, REME HALO in-duct air purifiers, and the Healthy Climate Bypass Humidifier by Lennox. Our Optimum package includes the dynamic air cleaner, air purifier, and the Honeywell Steam Humidifier, which gives you precise humidity levels and protects your home and health by minimizing problems associated with dry air.
