Indoor Air Quality

Indoor Air Quality is among the top five environmental health risks to the population according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Harmful particles in homes include dust mites, pet dander, mold spores and pollen, all of which can incite allergic reactions in many people. Some allergic reactions are severe, such as asthma; while other reactions can be more subtle like runny nose, watery eyes, headaches, lethargy, and even snoring. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are another worry. VOCs are gases released into the air from cleaning solutions, carpets, building materials, and chemicals found in the home. Formaldehyde is widely used and can cause itching of the eyes, ears and throat.

CLEAN YOUR AIR CONDITIONER FILTER REGULARLY

Almost every air conditioning system has a filter upstream of the evaporator coil.This filter removes particles from the air stream to both keep the air conditioning system clean and to remove particles from the air.As the filter does its job, it gets loaded with more and more particles. This actually has the effect of making it more efficient, but it also increases resistance and reducing airflow. When this happens, it is time to clean the filter.If you don’t clean the filter, the air flow will go down, and the system will not perform well. Not only that, but if the filter is too dirty, it starts to become a source or air pollution itself..

Ductless Air Conditioning Systems

A ductless sysem also known as a mini split would be a solution if theres a room or rooms in your home where it’s basically impossible to install ductwork for a central air conditioning system? These systems are perfect where there is no overhead attic or crawl space. Good examples would be a “Florida room,” garage or even a basement.

This is a better alterative than room air conditioner hanging out a window, or even yet you do not have a window in the room to set one?

They are typically attractive looking, unobtrusive, quiet and super efficient.

There are several types of systems:

• Central air conditioning

• Portable air conditioners

• Room air conditioners

• Ductless or mini-splits

Depending upon your needs and size of the structure determines the appropriate system type. For large areas, central air conditioning is the best. But for smaller areas, a ductless or room air conditioning unit can be used. When temporary or additional cooling is needed, a portable air conditioner is sufficient.

Choosing the right system is important for overall indoor air quality and your home’s comfort!

Air Conditioning Systems

Air conditioning systems were once considered a luxury item in the old days! It wasn’t until the 1950’s that they became more common in homes. Today, it’s hard to image living without a comfort system of some sort in your house.

Over the decades, air conditioners have changed to become more efficient and environmentally friendly. But, they still have the same basic components (compressor, evaporator coil, condenser coil, and a metering device) from decades past.
