The Importance of Indoor Air Quality
At Dry Air Systems, we understand the crucial role that indoor air quality plays in the health, comfort, and well-being of our customers. As a family-owned and operated business since 1989, we have built a stellar reputation for delivering expert HVAC services to residential and commercial customers throughout Massachusetts North Shore, Southern New Hampshire, and surrounding areas, always on time and within budget.
Poor indoor air quality can lead to a host of health issues, including respiratory problems, allergies, and even more severe conditions like heart disease and cancer. In fact, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has ranked indoor air pollution among the top five environmental risks to public health. With Americans spending an average of 90% of their time indoors, it’s essential to ensure that the air we breathe in our homes and workplaces is clean and healthy.
Common Indoor Air Pollutants
There are numerous sources of indoor air pollution, including:
- Biological contaminants: Mold, dust mites, pet dander, and pollen
- Chemical pollutants: Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from cleaning products, paints, and furniture
- Combustion byproducts: Carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide from gas stoves, fireplaces, and tobacco smoke
- Outdoor pollutants: Vehicle exhaust, pesticides, and industrial emissions that enter through windows and doors
These pollutants can accumulate in poorly ventilated spaces, leading to a phenomenon known as “sick building syndrome,” where occupants experience acute health effects that seem to be linked to time spent in a particular building.
Improving Indoor Air Quality
At Dry Air Systems, we offer a range of solutions to help our customers in Newburyport, Haverhill, Salisbury, Amesbury, Ipswich, and Hampton, NH improve their indoor air quality. Our expert HVAC technicians are thoroughly trained, prompt, and courteous, and your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. Here are some of the ways we can help:
- HVAC system maintenance: Regular maintenance of your heating and cooling systems ensures that they are operating efficiently and not contributing to indoor air pollution. Our technicians can inspect, clean, and tune-up your HVAC units to optimize their performance and air filtration capabilities.
- Air filtration and purification: We offer a variety of air filtration and purification systems that can remove pollutants, allergens, and odors from your indoor air. From high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters to ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) systems, we can recommend the best solution for your specific needs.
- Ventilation improvements: Proper ventilation is key to maintaining good indoor air quality. Our team can assess your building’s ventilation system and make recommendations for improvements, such as installing energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) or heat recovery ventilators (HRVs) to bring in fresh air while minimizing energy loss.
- Humidity control: Excessive humidity can promote the growth of mold and dust mites, while overly dry air can irritate respiratory systems and cause discomfort. We offer humidification and dehumidification solutions to maintain optimal humidity levels in your home or workplace.
