A Breath Of Fresh Air In Your Home

posted by home in Air Duct Cleaning

The word “pollutants” often evokes images of dirty factories or exhaust pouring out of cars and buses. But pollutants aren’t just limited to the outdoors. In reality, indoor air is often more contaminated than the air outside — five times more polluted according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Whether it’s at home, the office or the grocery store, the EPA estimates that most people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, being exposed to air that can be filled with pollen, mold spores, dust, dirt and other allergens, which can act as triggers for asthma, allergy attacks or other breathing-related ailments.

This is a serious concern for a growing population — the American Academy of Asthma, Allergy and Immunology estimates that allergies affect as many as 40 million to 50 million people in the United States. Allergies are the sixth leading cause of chronic disease.

The good news is that there are ways to effectively remove many potentially harmful airborne particles, improve overall air quality inside the home and cut down on dust circulated throughout the home. Eliminating or controlling sources of pollutants in the home and improving ventilation to reduce humidity levels are simple ways to increase indoor air quality and deter mold growth. One of the most effective ways to remove airborne particles is to invest in a quality air purifying unit that treats 100 percent of a heating and cooling system’s airflow, like Bryant’s Evolution System Perfect Air Purifier.

“Consumers should look for products that can treat air throughout the home and kill airborne germs, not just trap them,” says Kevin Dudash of Bryant Heating & Cooling Systems. “Ordinary filtration products don’t cut it when allergens and pollen are at their peak.”

Homeowners concerned about their indoor air quality should find a trusted reliable heating and cooling systems dealer in their area. Visitors to www.bryant.com can even search by zip code for a qualified dealer in their area.

With proper home maintenance and the right air purification system, homeowners can breathe easy, knowing that their indoor air is clean.
