Indoor Air Quality Facts – GQ AIR CONDITIONING & HEATING

Could the air in your home be causing health issues?

Your home should be a sanctuary—a place where you and your family feel comfortable, healthy, and safe. However, the air circulating through your HVAC system may be working against you. Dust, dirt, pollen, animal dander, and other airborne contaminants are pulled into your duct system every time your furnace or air conditioner runs. Over time, these particles accumulate, creating the perfect breeding ground for mold spores, bacteria, fungus, and mildew. These hidden culprits can cause musty smells, attract viruses, and compromise your indoor air quality.

The Health Risks of Polluted Air

When an inefficient HVAC system operates, it can spew contaminants throughout your home, affecting everyone inside—especially children, the elderly, and family members with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions. In fact, according to the American Lung Association, people spend 60% to 90% of their time indoors, making indoor air quality a critical component of overall health. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has found that levels of hazardous pollutants can be up to 70 times higher indoors than outdoors. This underscores the importance of maintaining a clean and efficient HVAC system.

Why Duct Cleaning Matters

The most effective way to eliminate air duct pollutants is through professional duct cleaning using the “source removal” method. This comprehensive approach removes contaminants from your entire HVAC system, preventing them from circulating in your home. Not only does this method significantly improve your indoor air quality, but it also helps:

Alleviate allergy and asthma symptoms
Eliminate musty odors and improve overall comfort
Maintain a cleaner living space by reducing dust buildup
Enhance HVAC efficiency, restoring system capacity and reducing energy bills

Enhance Air Quality with UV Light Technology

In addition to duct cleaning, we offer UV light installations to further protect your home’s air. UV lights are designed to neutralize airborne pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria, and mold, that thrive in your ductwork. By disrupting their growth, UV lights provide an added layer of defense, ensuring your HVAC system continuously delivers clean, fresh air.

Long-Lasting Benefits for Your Home

Investing in professional duct cleaning is not just a short-term fix—it’s a long-term solution for a healthier home. With cleaner ducts and enhanced air purification, you’ll notice fewer allergens in the air, a reduction in unpleasant odors, and improved overall comfort for years to come. Plus, the energy efficiency gains can translate into significant savings on your heating and cooling bills.
