You might ponder it when you\u2019re in traffic and you can smell gas fumes through your car\u2019s air conditioning system, or if there\u2019s a pollen count warning in spring. But what about the everyday health hazards you\u2019re already breathing in?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"\/services\/indoor-air-quality\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Air quality systems<\/a> show us just what we\u2019re breathing in on a daily basis, and the results are staggering. We believe that every home in America should install an air quality control system, and there\u2019s more than a handful of good reasons for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SBS is a Growing Problem<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As we spend more time indoors, sick building syndrome becomes an ever-growing issue. It\u2019s already estimated that the average American home\u2019s indoor air quality is 4-9x worse than the quality of air directly outside their front door.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It makes sense\u2013we\u2019re constantly breathing in the same recycled air, creating dust, breathing it in, then there\u2019s airborne mold (which is more common than you think), carcinogens, aerosols, the list goes on and on. SBS is a growing concern, and IAQ systems are the remedy for those problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Longevity May Depend on Air Quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We breathe more times than we could keep track of throughout any given day, not to mention how we breathe while we sleep. There\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/aqli.epic.uchicago.edu\/news\/the-link-between-air-quality-and-your-longevity\/#:~:text=Most%20of%20us%20know%20that,for%20dementia%20and%20other%20conditions.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">information that correlates the quality of your indoor air to your longevity<\/a>, and it\u2019s just one bit of evidence that surmounts every single year in favor of improving your indoor air quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indoor air quality also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dyson.com\/discover\/insights\/air-quality\/indoor\/how-does-indoor-air-quality-affect-sleep#:~:text=Effects%20of%20indoor%20air%20quality,breathing%20during%20sleep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">impacts your ability to sleep soundly<\/a>, so poor quality air will reduce your quality of sleep, which reduces your quality of life and longevity all at the same time. We all know how important sleep is\u2013why run the risk of poor quality sleep when you could tackle your indoor air quality issue?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reduce Inflammation, Asthma, and Allergies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have allergies, or your child does, you\u2019ll be happy to know that an indoor air quality system is a direct answer to those problems. While it can\u2019t make them go away, an IAQ system can greatly improve the quality of the air you breathe in by catching more dander, dust mites, and allergens every single day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you don\u2019t have asthma, allergies, or any other problem that can impact your respiratory system, the excess particulate matter you breathe in is still bad for you. Breathing in mold spores, dust, and pet dander can all inflame your lungs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your respiratory system has a natural waste system: it captures foreign particulate matter in your lungs, uses mucus to carry it through the waste systems of your body, and helps prevent all that horrible stuff from passing into your blood. But that waste system requires energy, and it\u2019s not guaranteed to help against 100% of everything you could breathe in. Why strain your lungs when you could give them relief?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let\u2019s Upgrade Your Air Quality<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know what you have to look out for in your own air quality, it\u2019s time to take it seriously. You can\u2019t defend against your home\u2019s poor indoor air quality unless you get the right machine that works around the clock to keep you safe, and your air clean\u2013we can help with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"\/contact\/send-a-message\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Contact us today<\/strong><\/a><strong> to schedule your indoor air quality system repairs and replacements today.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your indoor air quality is likely much, much worse than you realize.
