What is Indoor Air Quality?

While a lot of people believe air pollution is strictly an outdoor problem, studies actually indicate the air inside a lot of homes and workplaces can be more polluted and toxic than the air outside, even in bigger cities and towns. To underscore the importance of this matter, the average American spends an estimated 90 percent of their time indoors. Because the air indoors often lacks proper filtration, indoor air pollution is something homeowners should take seriously.

The EPA defines Indoor Air Quality as the quality of air inside a building or home and how it relates to the building or home’s occupants. Indoor Air Quality has a direct and sometimes negative effect on our health in addition to our overall mood, well-being and energy levels.

Why is Indoor Air Quality Important?

All too often, household air pollution can’t get out because modern dwellings are sealed airtight. In the confined spaces of a modern home or work environment, indoor pollutants can get trapped without proper filtration or outdoor air circulation. Even with the HVAC system’s air filter, often these pollutants are merely recirculated. 

If air pollution is present indoors, short-term health implications can surface after a single exposure or multiple times being exposed; it can irritate the nose, the eyes, the throat, and the skin. Or it can cause fatigue, headaches, and dizziness.

In the worst possible situations, officials say, long-term exposure to certain indoor air pollution can cause heart disease, respiratory illness, and even cancer. Because of things like this, testing is important.

How Does it Work?

Although you aren’t able to see them, a home can be overflowing with airborne pollutants — with things like pollen, dander, dust, smoke, and even pathogens like mold, viruses, and bacteria.

The iWave-R utilizes an innovative, patented needlepoint bi-polar ionization (NPBI) technology to produce a balanced and equal amount of negative and positive ions. When these ions are shot up into the passing air stream, they break down pollutants and gases, transforming them into harmless compounds like oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor, as seen below. Because of the iWave-R’s size, price, and unique ion technology, it’s proven to be highly effective in purifying the air in a home. One of the best things about this indoor air quality product is that it doesn’t create any ozone byproducts as a result of the process.

4 Benefits of Air Purifiers

Air purifiers with HEPA technology filters can remove 99.7 percent of the airborne particulate matter (PM) circulating in your home environment. Removing these pollutants can lead to immediate and long-term health benefits such as better sleep quality and increased life expectancy.

Indoor Air Quality

Eliminates Harmful Chemicals from Indoor Environments

Many regular household cleaners contain toxic chemicals such as ammonia, chlorine, and phthalates. Exposure to these chemicals in small quantities may be harmless, but routine exposure can lead to serious health issues like tumors, cancer, cardiovascular, or neurological disorders.

Air purifiers with activated carbon can cleanse these chemical contaminants, avoiding the risk of several health problems. A highly porous form of carbon is used in this carbon filtering method to trap chemicals, recycling fresh air back to the room.

Indoor Air Quality

Improves Sleep

Indoor allergens such as bacteria, fungi, and dust mites can trigger allergies or hay fever. Hay fever causes a runny nose and can last up to several weeks. Frequent sneezing, coughing, nose congestion, watery eyes, or sore throat are some common allergic symptoms disrupting your sleep.

Lack of adequate sleep causes daytime drowsiness, affecting your productivity the next morning. To avoid these sleep disruptions, it’s best to use HEPA air purifiers because they filter out most allergens from your room. Cleaner air gives you a better night’s sleep.

Indoor Air Quality

Relieves Symptoms of Asthma

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1 in 12 people has asthma. Those living with asthma have inflamed bronchial tubes. Pollutants such as pet dander, pollen, or dust mites irritate their airways, causing difficulty breathing. Most household air purifiers contain HEPA filters designed to capture all these pollutants, so you breathe clean air.
Indoor Air Quality

Neutralizes Unpleasant Odors

Some chemicals such as gasoline, benzene, and formaldehyde break down at room temperature causing an off-gassing odor. These chemicals, called Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), are commonly found in paints, aerosol sprays, upholstered furniture, or air fresheners. The odor from VOCs can cause nausea, breathlessness, and even affect your cognitive functions.

Studies show low VOC levels in ambient air improves productivity and performance. Air purifiers with HEPA and activated carbon filters are effective in trapping gases as well as particles, reducing pollutants in the indoor environment.

4 Ways to Improve Indoor Air Quality

These tips will help Loveland, OH homeowners improve their Indoor Air Quality right away:

"No Smoking Zone"

Cigarette smoke indoors can linger for a long time, causing harm to all who breathe the air. Not to mention the smell and stained walls and furniture. We recommend designating a smoking area outdoors only.

Use Proper Ventilation

Kitchens and bathrooms especially need proper ventilation. Gas stoves are known to release dangerous gases such as nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide. Electric burners and stoves are no exception.

Vacuum Regularly

Carpets and rugs act somewhat like an air filter by capturing tiny particles like dirt and dust and other impurities such as dander and things brought into the home from the outside. Because they tend to trap all these particles in their fibers, vacuuming once a week will improve the indoor air.

Preventative Maintenance

Our certified technicians perform an extensive list of procedures that include cleanings and examinations; they carefully analyze your HVAC system and conduct a list of system checks and inspections; they analyze the condition of your air ducts and check your system’s air filters and look for any other area that merits attention.
