Signs Your Home Deals With Poor Indoor Air Quality
Is your indoor air healthy? It might not be as clean as you think. Pollution is often two to five times more concentrated indoors compared to outdoors, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Indoor air pollution drifting with your home’s air could induce headaches and allergy flareups. And mold and mildew can cause a variety of health issues.
Health Problems
While these types of symptoms may be caused by other issues, they can also be evidence your home has indoor air quality (IAQ) problems. This is especially true if you recover while you’re away from home.
- Dry eyes, nose, throat or skin
- Headaches and sinus pressure
- Fatigue
- Allergies or asthma symptoms that are more severe than usual
- Coughing and sneezing
- Dizziness or nausea
Environmental Problems
A well-worn heating and cooling system can be contributing to indoor air quality problems, particularly if it’s struggling to filter air, control humidity or keep temperatures stable.
Here are some other signs you might need to improve your indoor air:
- Too much static or mold growth
- High quantities of dust
- Stuffy or musty odors
How Can I Avoid Indoor Air Quality Problems?
Avoiding indoor air quality problems should be comparatively easy with these 10 simple tips:
- Request an indoor air quality audit with Cytech Heating & Cooling L.C.. We’ll evaluate areas that affect air quality, like humidity, carbon monoxide and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Then we’ll go over whatever concerns we find and how you can improve them.
- Clean on a regular basis to clear away dust mites, which can exacerbate allergies and asthma.
- Clear your home of secondhand smoke.
- Install a whole-home filtration system to get rid of odors, instead of concealing them with air fresheners or scented candles. The contaminants include chemicals that can lead to headaches or upset respiratory conditions.
- Ventilate gas-burning appliances, such as stoves and water heaters, to the outdoors.
- Keep your home’s humidity levels balanced with a humidifier or dehumidifier, according to your needs. Adjust humidity under 50% to hinder mold and mildew growth.
- Check your home for radon. Long-term exposure to this invisible radioactive gas is the leading cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers, according to the EPA. You can purchase a radon test kit online or reach out to your state radon program for info on discounted or free kits.
- Implement a ventilation system to exchange contaminated indoor air with fresh air from outside.
- Find natural cleaning and painting substances that are low in or free of VOCs. Elevated levels of VOCs can worsen symptoms for family members with respiratory illnesses.
- Place carbon monoxide detectors close to bedrooms.
