Indoor Air Quality Services To Help You Breathe Easy!

Indoor air quality (IAQ) can be the difference between a comfortable room and annoying flu-like symptoms. It can even cause itchy skin, asthma attacks, or fatigue, which no home or business owner wants to happen. Chilly Ben’s Heating and AC technicians have state-approved licenses and insurance to help you improve your indoor air quality. We know some of the best systems and methods for you to regain control over your building’s quality and comfort.

What Can Affect Indoor Air Quality In Bowling Green, KY?

Many people tend to think that our most common allergic reactions come from outdoor sources, which can be true. However, we spend most of our time inside buildings, and indoor air pollution can affect skin conditions, breathing, and other health conditions. Did you know that indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor air due to lack of ventilation? Below are some common indoor air pollutants that can affect your home’s air quality:

• Mold
• Radon
• Mildew
• Pet dander
• Cooking fumes
• Carbon monoxide
• Organic volatile compounds (VOCs)

Some of these pollutants may develop due to poor ventilation through your HVAC system, like a dirty air filter. Other times, the particles spread naturally from your household cleaners, paints, and other human-made products. Too much internal moisture can also create a good environment for mold and mildew development.

Ways We Can Help You Improve Your IAQ

Chilly Ben’s Heating and AC specializes in installing and maintaining systems that can improve your indoor air quality. We review your property’s condition and present various customized solutions. Our tools may include specialized appliances and machines to tackle a specific kind of pollution, such as:

• Air Filters
• UV Light Filtration Systems
• Electronic Air Cleaners
• Humidifiers

Air Filters

Air filters prevent pollutants from clogging the inside of the system. While clog prevention is their main purpose, a good quality air filter also helps prevent pollutant recirculation, helping you and your building occupants breathe easier.

Some air filters work better than others based on your HVAC system. For example, some stores give filters performance ratings, but the highest rating may not be the best for your unit. You can review the information in your system instruction manual or call an HVAC professional to find the right filter.

UV Light Filtration Systems

UV lights can help identify stains, but some wavelengths of UV lighting can destroy microbes, mold spores, and other pollutants. Germicidal lights do not harm humans but work hard on contaminants. This air purification method doesn’t use harsh chemicals. We can place them in the system ductwork, where the lamp silently improves your indoor air quality.

Electronic Air Cleaners

Electronic air cleaners use various filters and electricity to remove harmful particles from the air. Most sit outside the system in a room or on a wall, while others can connect to your HVAC system. These machines collect nearby air and trap large particles in the first series of filters. Electrically charged filters trap smaller particles that continue through the first series using a magnetizing force. These systems can efficiently pick up most pollutants, from dust and dander to mold and bacteria.

Humidifiers

All properties have a certain level of water in the air traveling through their building. Some air moisture is necessary to stay comfortable, but too much or not enough causes problems. Depending on your property’s conditions and traits, you may need a humidifier or dehumidifier.

Because Kentucky’s temperate climate can get very cold, we often suffer from dry air. Dry air can cause more dander and dead skin to circulate through the air system and can also dry out our mucous membranes, causing nosebleeds, headaches, or dehydration. Humidifiers can increase the moisture in the air to comfortable humidity levels of between 30 to 50%, reducing the amount of skin cells and hair circulating in your building.
