The thermostat is set at 68 degrees Fahrenheit and it feels like 80, the outdoor unit is louder than ever, the utility bills continue to go up – these are the more obvious signs that an HVAC system should be replaced. Yet there’s another indicator just as important, but invisible to the naked eye: indoor air quality (IAQ). In a recent article from ACH&R News, “Making the Case for Healthier Homes,” contributing editor Kimberly Schwartz brings to light this sightless aspect of a cooling and heating system that is often overlooked by homeowners.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the air within our homes can be 100 times more polluted than outdoor pollutant levels. If not properly addressed, contaminated air can have profound effects on overall health and comfort. Eye, nose and throat irritation, headaches, dizziness and fatigue are some of the more obvious signs of poor IAQ. Over time, this exposure can lead to more serious health concerns such as asthma, respiratory and cardiovascular disease, and even cancer. So how can homeowners breathe the cleanest air possible? Here’s what you can tell them:
Once homeowners are aware of IAQ and its consequences to their health and comfort, they’ll be motivated to take action. And when they do, let’s be there to ensure that the air they’re breathing is the cleanest possible.
