Prioritizing Indoor Air Quality in the Post-COVID Era

The significance of indoor air quality (IAQ) has gained prominence as more Americans recognize the impact of poor IAQ, and the focus on improving indoor air quality has become crucial. In our region, people are sealing their homes to conserve energy, inadvertently trapping contaminants. While this may be cost-effective, it can adversely affect your health, exposing you to dust mites, pet dander, mold, mildew, formaldehyde, toluene, bacteria, and carbon monoxide.

Have You Assessed the Quality of the Air You Breathe Indoors?

IAQ pertains to the quality of air inside and around buildings, directly influencing the health and comfort of occupants. Contaminants affecting indoor air quality can vary, and the primary methods for improvement involve ventilation and air filtration.


Indoor air may be arid, dusty, or contain elevated pollutant levels, contributing to health symptoms and discomfort. Poor IAQ poses health risks and results in a less comfortable living environment.

Indoor Air Quality Products and Services

Purify fresh air through efficient air purifiers, media air cleaners, electronic air cleaners, dehumidifiers, whole-home humidifiers, and UV treatment systems before passing through the home's furnace or air conditioner.

  • Whole-House Ventilation Systems

    Energy-efficient ERV and HRV ventilation systems exchange indoor air for outdoor air while preserving most energy used for heating or cooling.

  • Why Is Indoor Air Quality Critical?

    According to the EPA, indoor air can be up to five times more polluted than outdoor air, ranking air pollutants among the top five environmental risks to public health. Poor IAQ elevates the risk of various health issues, including asthma, pulmonary infections, allergies, headaches, nausea, fatigue, and eye irritation. The average American spends up to 90% of their time indoors, so most of the day, this means the potential of inhaling harmful contaminants.

  • Understanding a Healthy Indoor AQI

    A healthy indoor air quality index (AQI) typically falls within the "good" range (0 to 50 on the AQI scale), indicating little or no risk to health. Higher AQI levels, particularly in the "moderate" range (51–100), are generally acceptable but may cause minor health issues for individuals sensitive to air quality. Regular monitoring and measures such as air purifiers, proper ventilation, and minimizing indoor pollutants are crucial for maintaining a healthy indoor environment.

  • Identifying the Four Major Indoor Air Pollutants

    Referred to as the "indoor air quality quartet," the four major indoor air pollutants include:

    1. Particulate Matter (PM): Tiny airborne particles like dust, pollen, and pet dander that worsen allergies and respiratory conditions.
    2. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Chemicals released from household products like paints, cleaning agents, and furniture cause health issues when inhaled.
    3. Carbon Monoxide (CO): Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas produced by incomplete combustion, potentially life-threatening, and often associated with gas stoves or furnaces.
    4. Radon: A naturally occurring radioactive gas that can seep into homes from the ground, increasing the risk of lung cancer.

    Addressing these pollutants is imperative for maintaining a healthy indoor air quality environment.
