You likely spend time throughout the week cleaning your home to keep it free of clutter, germs, and messes. Maintaining a clean home can reduce stress, reduce the spread of germs, and improve the overall appearance of your home. However, even spending hours cleaning your home every day may not be enough to affect your indoor air quality. The cleanliness of your air will be affected by dust and other allergens or contaminants built up in your air vents, HVAC ducts, and air filters. Here are three signs you need to improve your indoor air quality.
- Frequent buildup of dust: If you have dust building up regularly around your home even after you carefully clear away all the dust, it’s likely due to poor indoor air quality. This could be caused by a buildup of dust inside your air filters or air ducts that is filtering into the air around your home.
- Respiratory discomfort: If you experience regular respiratory discomfort, including coughing, congestion, or regular illnesses, this may be a sign of poor indoor air quality. Contaminants inside your air ducts, HVAC system, and air filters, such as dust, pollen, or pet dander, can irritate the lungs and cause more frequent illnesses when these contaminants filter into the air in your home. This can be resolved by improving your indoor air quality.
- Persistent musty odors: If you have a persistent and seemingly unexplained musty odor in your home, it could be due to dust or even mold spores that are constantly being blown through the air vents and clogged air ducts any time you use your HVAC system. Improving your indoor air quality can resolve this issue.
