If you’re looking for ways to improve your Lenexa, KS, home’s indoor air quality, Air Care Heating & Cooling is here to help. Studies have shown that the air quality inside the average American home is often much worse than the air outside. This is just as true for people who live near Black Hoof Park or Mill Creek as it is for those who live somewhere closer to downtown Kansas City.
While it can be especially problematic for people with asthma or other respiratory issues, poor air quality has the potential to affect everyone. Because of this, indoor air quality testing is something every homeowner should definitely consider.
Mold, dust, humidity, and allergens are just some of the potential issues that can contribute to poor indoor air quality. Any leaks in your ductwork can allow dust, dander, pollen, and other allergens to collect inside the ducts. Whenever you run your heating and cooling system, these allergens are then spread throughout your house.
The humidity level in your home can also impact air quality and potentially exacerbate any respiratory conditions. Too little humidity can dry out your skin, hair, and sinuses while excess humidity worsens allergies. High humidity levels can also allow mold to grow in the home. Not only will this further worsen the air quality, but mold growth can also potentially damage your health.
The good news is that there are a number of steps you can take to improve your home’s air quality. Nonetheless, indoor air quality testing is always the first step in determining what air quality issues you may be facing and how best to resolve them.
Depending on the results of the testing, we may be able to improve your air quality in various ways.
Installing a whole-home humidifier or dehumidifier
Repairing any air leaks in your ductwork
Replacing your air filter
Installing indoor air purifiers
