We spend more time indoors when the weather gets chilly. We seal cracks that allow cold drafts, close windows, and turn off air conditioners and fans, reducing the amount of ventilation and inadvertently raising the concentration of pollutants and allergens in our home. Read this to learn how to improve air quality in the winter. https://buff.ly/4bbn8UX

Houses act like vacuums. Hot, humid air escapes through the attic sucking new air up from the crawl space or basement. This air circulation is good to some extent, as it helps keep the air fresh. But it can also disperse mold spores, dander, and other allergens all throughout your home if your crawl space or basement has them. This phenomenon is known as the Stack Effect.

When indoor air isn’t cleaned properly, over time it can set the conditions for even more toxic spores to develop in the form of mildew and mold spots throughout your home. In other words, the more toxins you allow into your home, the easier it is for even more toxins to develop, thereby creating a vicious cycle of even worse indoor air quality. And who wants that?

It is important to regularly clean or replace your air filter to ensure that it is effectively capturing dirt, dust, and allergens. A dirty filter will not only fail to trap these particles, but it will also allow them to circulate throughout your home, leading to poor indoor air quality and increased dust accumulation. By maintaining a clean air filter, you can help improve the air quality in your home and keep it free from pollutants.

It’s Air Quality Awareness Week! Checking air quality and limiting time outside when air quality is poor due to wildfire smoke and other pollutants can protect your health. Wildfires are becoming larger and more frequent in the U.S. and Canada, in part due to climate change. Smoke from wildfires can travel thousands of miles and produce poor air quality, like we experienced last summer in Minnesota. Breathing wildfire smoke can make anyone sick, but children, older adults, and those with chronic conditions like asthma and heart disease are at greater risk. Go to AirNow.gov for air quality conditions where you are, and for steps to protect your health. More information at https://lnkd.in/gYmUzdZ9

When I think of spring I often think of FRESH AIR! 💨 Something that often goes overlooked is the quality of air in your home. From duct cleanings to HEPA filters, there are a lot of things you can do to make sure the air circulating your home is nice and fresh. :) HEPA filters (high efficiency particulate air filters) may catch up to 99% of dust, pollen, mold, and bacteria, making them a great choice to ensure the air you're breathing is clean! Duct cleanings go through all your duct work in your home, and your indoor unit, making sure any dander, dust, and allergens aren't polluting your air!

You know how fresh the air smells after a storm. Lightning changes the oxygen in the air to ozone – one of the strongest sanitizers known to man. Ozone kills bacteria up to 3200 times faster than chlorine bleach. We use the SAN-O3-WASH process – just like the best hotels and hospitals – to give you that same fresh smell in your laundry by injecting ozone into the water. Come see how clean your laundry can be. https://bit.ly/3bpD1XK
