How To Improve Your Indoor Air Quality

If you have ever wondered about the indoor air quality within your Coral Springs home and how to improve your indoor air quality, we at Art Plumbing and Air Conditioning are here to help by sharing a few basic tips on making sure you and your loved ones are breathing in only the healthiest, cleanest air possible.

When it comes to Coral Springs indoor air quality there are a few things you need to think about. For example, did you know that there are quite a few contaminants that could be trapped inside your home, causing your indoor air quality to decline quite severely? By cutting off the natural ventilation filtering into your home (this is a home that is referred to as a “Tight Home”) you are keeping contaminants inside, thereby lowering your indoor air quality level in your home. Furthermore there are many different things that could be floating in the air you are breathing in your homes such as bacteria, viruses, mould spores and pollutant particles.

With all that in mind, here are our top 3 basic tips that you can make use of right now to improve your indoor air quality:

3. Clean sweep:
Clean sweep is a three-stage process to improving your indoor air quality. First stage is to vacuum your floors using a vacuum with a HEPA filter or central vacuum system. Not only will vacuuming get rid of the general dust and dirt but also by using a HEPA filter you will also significantly reduce any lead concentrations in your home. The second stage is mop. Mopping with microfiber mops picks up the dust that vacuuming leaves behind. The third and final stage of the process is matting. All you need to do is place a strong, durable, large mat at the entrances to your home in order to trap any dirt and particles trying to make their way into your home.

2. No smoking zone:
Cigarette smoke contains more than 4,000 chemicals and pollutants. Simply put, by making your home a no smoking zone you will vastly improve your indoor air quality.

1. De-humidify:
As we all know dust mites and mold love moisture but by adjusting the humidity level of your home to around 30%-50% will keep dust mites, mould and other allergens under control. An air conditioner will help reduce moisture in your indoor air. This should effectively control allergens as well as reduce indoor pollen count.

Indoor air pollution can be a serious problem, and making sure your Coral Springs indoor air quality is as safe, clean and comfortable as possible should be a top priority.
