Rock Hill Indoor Air Quality
If you live in a Rock Hill neighborhood with active construction, have a home that’s near an airport or busy freeway, or have indoor pets, your indoor air quality is likely poor. Factors like these fill homes with dust, dirt, dander, pollen, and other allergens. Although even standard HVAC air filters can pick up many of these contaminants, micro-fine particulates pass right through them.
Homes that have sump pumps or slab leaks often have higher-than-healthy levels of radon and other subterranean gases. Rock Hill properties that house fuel-burning appliances such as natural gas furnaces, oil-fired furnaces, or gas water heaters may have small amounts of carbon monoxide (CO) that remain undetectable to certain CO alarms. Even if exposure to these gases doesn’t cause immediate symptoms, ongoing exposure can take a critical health toll.
There are also many residential building materials that regularly off-gas harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
- Flooring
- Flooring adhesives
- Paints and varnishes
- Unsealed particle board and composite wood
If you use nail polish and nail polish remover indoors, plug-in air fresheners, or room-freshening sprays, these products also release VOCs. Worse still, HVAC air filters don’t extract these gaseous contaminants.
With professional indoor air quality service, you can test your home for all of the most common contaminants. IAQ testing determines which allergens, gaseous chemicals, and pathogens are present and lists their concentrations. This way, homeowners can address fixable IAQ concerns like slow, hidden leaks and poorly capped sump pumps. They can also find and install the right integrated HVAC accessories to address everything else.
Our HVAC technicians install integrated accessories on or in HVAC air ducts. Whole-house air purification deactivates germs, viruses, mold, and other pathogens as air passes through ducting. It also neutralizes VOCs and other gaseous chemical contaminants while picking up micro-fine particulates. Many air purifiers additionally release negative ions that offer air-cleaning outside of ductwork.
Whole-house air filtration sieves out all of the micro-fine debris that passes through standard filter mesh. Much like air purifiers, some advanced whole-house air filters can also deactivate dangerous pathogens and chemicals.
