Indoor Air Quality Testing and Filtration Systems
We work so hard to keep our hands clean, cover our mouths and wipe down all surfaces in our home. But did you know that the air you breathe inside your home can actually be extremely polluted? It is important to make sure the air filtration system in your home is functioning properly at all times to prevent air contaminants from being circulated.
Luckily, Air Tech of Pasadena provides indoor air quality testing as one of their many services in Texas. Our team is dedicated to making your indoor air cleaner and healthier for you and your family. We also want to keep you informed so that you can take extra precautions for your home air quality.
What is Indoor Air Quality?
Indoor air quality is the condition of the air within and around a building or structure. It’s essential inside your home because it’s where you spend the majority of your time. We monitor the air quality outside because we know how important it is to breathe clean air. For the same reason, it’s crucial to work towards keeping the air in your home clean.
What Contaminants Are In My Air?
It is natural for air to carry debris and dust, but you should be able to count on your whole-home filtration system to keep harmful things from endlessly circulating into the air you breathe. Some common things found in your air are:
- Dust
- Pet Dander and Hair
- Pollen
- Viruses
- Bacteria
- Moisture Levels
Consequences of Poor Air Quality
Poor IAQ can have a wide range of short-term and long-term effects on you, your family and even pets. Short-term exposure to poor IAQ can cause irritation of the eyes, nose and throat; headaches; dizziness and fatigue. If you have allergies that tend to flare up indoors, poor IAQ could be the cause. Long-term exposure to allergens can develop respiratory diseases such as asthma, heart disease and even cancer.
How Does an IAQ Test Work?
In three simple steps, our air quality specialist will be able to share information about your air quality and the possible solutions that are available.
- Testing – Our IAQ expert will start by meeting with you to learn more about your home and if your family has anyone with breathing difficulties. We’ll then take samples and measurements of your indoor air. This will then be evaluated to determine what’s actually in your home’s air.
- Results – With the test results back, our technician will meet with you again and discuss what the test results mean.
- Solutions – Our team can help implement air quality improvement solutions based on the results of your test. This includes installing filters, repairing air duct issues or adding dehumidifiers. With our indoor air quality treatment, you and your family will soon be breathing easier.
Improve Your Indoor Air Quality
Air purification systems are often the best way to improve your home’s air quality, but there are some simple things you can do on your own to help. The best way to improve air quality without an air purifier is to change your air filters regularly. This will prevent debris buildup that can make its way into your ductwork and be distributed throughout your home. In addition, clean your home regularly, especially if you have pets that shed. This will help keep dust and dander out of your air.
Pasadena Indoor Air Quality Solutions
If you suspect that your home’s air quality isn’t at its best, Air Tech of Pasadena has several air quality products available to restore clean air to your home. We offer indoor air cleaners, which are portable and perfect for apartments and target specific rooms in your house. They are a cost-effective but high-quality solution to air quality issues.
We also offer whole-home air filtration systems for a more comprehensive approach and the highest quality of air throughout your entire home. Rather than targeting a specific room, these systems are installed directly into your central AC system and filter out pollutants like dust and mold before they get to the rest of your home.
