How We Solve Problems with Indoor Air Quality
Today’s building standards are great because they ensure your home is sealed and energy efficient. However, airtight homes also make it much more difficult for stale or polluted air to escape—thus contributing to poor indoor air quality.
Good indoor air quality starts with a sealed duct system and proper filtration. In addition, there are numerous products to increase the air quality in your home, such as UV lights and whole house air purification systems.
If you have concerns about the quality of the air in your home or are suffering from allergies, asthma or any other respiratory issues, our indoor air quality services can help.
The team at Complete Care Heating and Air Conditioning can conduct an analysis of your heating and air conditioning system and discuss the best option to resolve your indoor air quality concerns.
