Improving Indoor Air Quality: Filters, Air Scrubbers, and More

Why Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Matters for Your Health and Comfort 🏡💨

Did you know the air inside your home can be up to five times more polluted than outdoor air? Most people spend nearly 90% of their time indoors, making indoor air quality (IAQ) a crucial factor in your family's health and comfort. At Warma Heating & AC, we know that pristine indoor air isn't just a luxury—it's a necessity.

Common Sources of Indoor Air Pollutants

Understanding what affects your IAQ is the first step to breathing cleaner, healthier air. Here are some of the most common sources:

• Dust and Pollen: Tracked in from the outdoors, they accumulate in carpets, ducts, and furniture.
• Pet Dander: Our furry friends shed skin cells that linger in the air.
• Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Released from paints, cleaning products, and furniture.
• Mold and Mildew: Thrive in damp environments and release spores into the air.
• Smoke and Cooking Fumes: Tobacco, fireplaces, and kitchens can all contribute.
• Combustion Byproducts: Gas stoves, furnaces, and water heaters emit gases like carbon monoxide.

The result? Without proper ventilation and filtration, these contaminants can circulate through your HVAC system and impact your entire household.

Health Risks Associated with Poor Indoor Air Quality 🤧🍃

Poor IAQ can trigger or exacerbate a range of health issues, such as:

• Allergies & asthma attacks
• Chronic headaches & fatigue
• Eye, nose & throat irritation
• Respiratory infections
• Heart problems
• Poor sleep quality

Children, seniors, and people with pre-existing health conditions are especially at risk. Proactive IAQ improvements aren't just about comfort—they help protect the ones you love.

Warma Heating & AC’s Solutions for Better Indoor Air Quality 🛠️✨

At Warma Heating & AC, we offer a whole suite of services designed to purify, balance, and optimize your indoor air. Here’s how we can help:

Advanced Filters: Your First Line of Defense 🛡️

What are they?
Advanced air filters capture dust, pollen, pet dander, and even microscopic particles. Options include HEPA filters and high-efficiency pleated filters.

Benefits:

• Trap up to 99.97% of airborne particles
• Reduce allergens and improve respiratory comfort
• Extend the life of your HVAC system

Integration:
We install and maintain filters that fit seamlessly into your existing HVAC system. Monthly checks during HVAC Maintenance or AC Maintenance ensure they’re always performing their best.

Air Scrubbers: Destroy Contaminants at the Source 🦠💥

What are they?
Air scrubbers use advanced UV light or ionization to actively neutralize bacteria, viruses, odors, and VOCs as air circulates through your ducts.

Benefits:

• Continuous, whole-home protection
• Eliminate up to 99% of airborne contaminants
• Remove odors from pets, smoke, and cooking

Integration:
Air scrubbers are professionally installed into your ductwork, working 24/7 alongside your HVAC system for hands-off peace of mind.

Dehumidifiers & Humidifiers: Balance Moisture for Comfort 🌬️🌡️

Why does moisture matter?
Too much humidity breeds mold and dust mites; too little dries out skin and respiratory passages.

Our solutions:

• Dehumidifiers: Remove excess moisture during muggy seasons, preventing mold and making your home more comfortable.
• Humidifiers: Add essential moisture in winter, reducing dry air symptoms.

Both integrate seamlessly into your HVAC system for automatic climate control.
