Here's How to Maintain Good Indoor Air Quality

Exposure to daily sources of pollution is nearly unavoidable. However, when it comes to indoor air pollution in your home there are ways to avoid getting more than your share. The first way to maintain good indoor air quality is to identify all the ways that your home may be compromising it. 

If you or your family is suffering from health effects after moving to a new home, renovating your home, or treating your home with pesticides, discuss your symptoms with a health professional to find out if they could be the result of indoor air pollution.

You can also identify any possible sources of indoor air pollution, which may include:

  • combustion sources: oil, gas, kerosene, coal, wood, and tobacco products
  • building materials and furnishings: asbestos-containing insulation, wet or damp carpet, and cabinetry or furniture made of certain pressed wood products
  • products: chemical containing products used to clean and maintain households, as well as those used for hobbies
  • central heating and cooling systems and humidification devices
  • outdoor sources: radon and pesticides
  • outdoor air pollution: can leak into poorly insulated homes

In order to maintain good indoor air quality and eliminate sources of pollution, be aware of your activities and work to control their impact:

  • Improve your ventilation: increase the amount of outdoor air to bring fresh air into the house.
  • Open windows and doors when weather allows, because most heating and cooling units do not bring outdoor air inside.
  • Use exhaust fans found in kitchens and bathrooms; they directly remove contaminants to the outdoors.
  • Ventilate when possible: whenever doing short-term activities (including painting and maintenance as well as cooking) that generate lots of pollution, make sure to ventilate by opening doors and windows and using exhaust fans.
  • Take it outdoors: weather permitting, you may also want to do pollution generating activities outdoors in order to maintain your indoor air quality.

Our goal is to help educate our customers about energy and home comfort issues (specific to HVAC systems).  For more information about indoor air quality and other HVAC topics, download our free Home Comfort Solutions Guide.
