3 Steps To Help Improve Your Air Quality

Have you ever thought how good or bad the air is in your home? When you spend most of your time indoors, the air quality is of vital importance to your health and comfort. To help with improving the air quality in your home or business, follow these three simple steps:

1. Change your HVAC system air filter regularly. Similar to changing the air filter on your car, your air conditioner needs as much free air to help circulate fresh air and push it through your vents. In return this will help optimize your indoor air quality and keep your unit clean of debris. Consult with your a/c technician for questions on air filter size and replacement frequency.
2. Keep your vents and air returns dusted. Always helpful to keep your vents clean to help avoid floating dust circulating back into the air. If you start to see more dust than usual that is a sign to clean your vents and check your air filter.
3. Avoid paints and solvents with high Volatile Organic Compounds and add plants. If you have a paint project throughout the house, never place the paint cans or anything under your air conditioner unit to help prevent issues with VOC’s. Plants help remove carbon dioxide out of the air and provide oxygen in return which helps improve your indoor air quality.
