Keeping Your Home's Optimal Air Quality
From playing with your pets, sweeping up some clutter, wiping down countertops, and everything in between, the air we breathe will always contain more than just oxygen. It is far too easy to breathe in foreign particles, including potentially toxic chemicals that may have found shelter in your household’s ventilation system.
Volatile organic compounds, dust mites and a multitude of other contaminates are not something to ignore. This is why Service Patriots provides all the indoor air quality services you need to keep you and your family healthy.
Do You Need an Air Quality Assessment?
We need to be certain that we are breathing the best possible air.
Breathing air that is less than satisfactory can lead to many health and quality of life problems. The majority of issues regarding air quality can be traced back to the ductwork and filters of your HVAC system. However, the source of the problem could possibly be linked to something else. Look for these signs to decide if your air quality could be improved:
Possible Pests
Most households have experienced an invasion of pests at one point or another. Insects and rodents can make our lovely home feel far less enjoyable. We tend to think these critters are attracted to leftover food and nothing else. While this might be the case, there is a strong possibility they have found shelter within your air ducts. If this is the case, there are far worse particles floating around your house than dust.
Higher Energy Bills
If you have recently experienced a spike in your energy bill over the last few months, there could be an issue with your air quality. If the weather has been relatively steady yet you have noticed a higher than average energy bill, it is likely that your HVAC system is experiencing some inefficiency and poor air quality. It is important to get this fixed to save your health and money!
Thoroughly Examine Your Household
Something every homeowner should be checking regularly are their air filters and air vents. It is extremely important to check these since debris forming at these points can almost guarantee a much larger build up within the system. If the surface shows build up, just imagine how full it is on the inside! It is crucial to do these checks often and clean up around the vents and filters when applicable. A build up within the ventilation system will cause breathing issues and a decreased quality of life. It is very important to remove these potential dangers.
The Unmatched Expertise
Being able to prevent these issues is much easier after knowing what may be causing them. Maintaining your system will help improve your quality of life while putting some money back in your pocket. Our experts at Service Patriots will be able to diagnose the problem and give you peace of mind.
Air Filtration Services
- Larger than normal amount of debris
- Decrease in air flow
- Unpleasant smell from ventilation
There is much more to being a homeowner than just the title. Homeowner’s have a lot of responsibilities. It is easy to make mistakes when there is a lot to look after. Poorly constructed ventilation systems can let pollutants into your home far too easily. This is where Service Patriots comes to the rescue. Each kind of air filtration system is built to manage different issues. Below are different choices of filtration systems that you can consider depending on what you are looking for.
- Fiberglass Air Filters—used for homes that already have clean air. They don’t clean polluted air but if your home shows little to know signs of pollution, this option can be effective and cheap.
- Polyester and Pleated Air Filters—used for homes experiencing pollution such as dust mites and other contaminates. Great for homes that are experiencing severe allergies. Polyester and pleated air filters are able to remove almost half (45%) of existing home pollutants. This can effectively cut your allergy severity in half and make you breathe twice as well!
Duct Cleaning Services
These problems are often caused by unwanted vermin making a house out of your air ducts or a large build up of dust and debris within them.
