Indoor Air Quality
According to the EPA, indoor air pollution is one of the top 5 urgent envrionmental risks to public health. Since many people spend up to 90% of their time indoors, this is a big concern. Why has this happened? Since the 1980s, we have been making our homes more airtight. As we have been doing this, we have also increased our use of chemicals in household cleaners, construction materials, and pest control products.
The sources of our indoor air quality problems are airborne particles, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), extreme temperature changes, humidity, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and radon. To improve our indoor air quality, we can do three things. First, identify the the pollution; second, improve ventilation; and third, improve filtration.
Olson Heating, Cooling, and Appliance LLC can help you determine if you have an indoor air quality problem by placing an AirAdvice IAQ monitor in your home. At the end of the test period (a minimum of 3 days), we will collect the monitor, and provide you with a report of the readings. This report will show you what the pollutant levels were in your home, as well as offer solutions to the problems. This is a service that we offer to you at no cost. Call us today at (608) 437-3666 or complete our online form to schedule your test!
