Enhance Your Indoor Air Quality in Olympia, WA

Do you know that, on average, we spend 90% of our time indoors? Even more surprising is that indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outside air. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), indoor air quality is one of the top five environmental threats to public health.

Stay safe at home with these indoor air quality tips and schedule a service appointment with G & G Heating. We’re expert HVAC contractors ready to improve your indoor air with humidifiers, dehumidifiers, air purifiers, and other cost- and energy-efficient solutions.

Signs of Poor Indoor Air Quality

Poor indoor air quality can lead to various symptoms, such as coughing, sneezing, fatigue, headaches, and more. It can even contribute to more severe health conditions like lung diseases and heart problems.

Many residents don’t even know their indoor air quality is to blame. Many of these symptoms are similar to colds or allergies, so it’s easy to mistake poor air quality for something else. Still, if you and your loved ones keep facing health issues, check your indoor air for pollutants, contaminants, and irritants.

Common Causes of Poor Indoor Air Quality

Many things can worsen the quality of your indoor air. These include combustion, personal-care products, and outdoor air quality. Inadequate ventilation can trap contaminated air, and poorly maintained heating and air conditioning systems may release dust and mites. Also, dampness from floods, leaks, or high humidity levels can cause mold and mildew growth.

Your daily activities can also contribute to indoor air pollution. For instance, certain cleaning products and smoking indoors can release harmful pollutants into the air. Even burning fuel sources indoors releases particles that need proper ventilation to control.

Old or outdated building materials, like asbestos or furniture made with formaldehyde, can further deteriorate indoor air quality.

Improving Your Air Quality

Here are some steps you can take to enhance your air quality:

  1. Ensure proper ventilation around heating and cooling systems.
  2. Use adequate ventilation when using cleaning products.
  3. Replace and maintain air filters regularly.
  4. Test your ductwork for leaks.
  5. Clean your humidifiers and dehumidifiers.
  6. Keep your home clean by vacuuming, washing bedding, and leaving shoes at the door.
  7. Install carbon monoxide detectors and test for radon. Leave asbestos handling to professionals.

Home Dehumidifiers

Consider home dehumidifier installation to remove excess moisture. New and old homes can have humid air, leading to unsafe living conditions. Install a house dehumidifier if you notice condensation on windows, mold spots, and musty odors. You won’t have to worry about indoor humidity again.

Home Humidifiers

Alternatively, dry air can wreak havoc on your health and home. A house humidifier reintroduces moisture into the air. Humidified air relieves chest congestion, sinusitis, dry skin, and more. Maintaining moisture levels also protects your wooden furniture from humid conditions.
