Indoor allergies can turn your relaxing home into an unpleasant and uncomfortable place. The area you once found relief from outdoor allergies has turned against you. Fortunately, improving your home’s HVAC system can help eliminate indoor allergy flare-ups, improve the overall quality of your indoor air, and give back your comfortable home.
Duct Sealing
Ducts transport the warmed or cooled air from the HVAC system through your home. If these ducts develop holes, cracks or other damage, airborne particles in places where ducts run through unconditioned spaces can enter the ducts and contaminate the air. These contaminants will lead to an increase in indoor allergies and poor air quality. Fortunately, your trusted HVAC contractor can professionally seal your ductwork and help protect your indoor air.
Air Filter
The air filter equipped on your heating and cooling system helps keep your indoor air clean and healthy. Since the air filter traps airborne particles, it eventually will become dirty and clogged. This decreases the filter’s ability to keep the air clean, and the particles it’s supposed to be catching can enter your home’s air and aggravate indoor allergies. Fortunately, regular replacement of the air filter will protect your indoor air quality and improve your overall health, in addition to having other major benefits for your HVAC system.
Annual HVAC Service
Heating and cooling systems of all types, sizes and brands require annual tune-ups to keep them running smoothly and safely. If the system is not well maintained, it cannot function efficiently or prevent contaminants from entering your air. Fortunately, annual HVAC service will help prolong the life of your equipment, keep them running at the highest efficiency and correct small problems before they become big ones.
