Did you know the air inside your home or business can be making you sick? Indoor air pollution is now considered to be one of the top five environmental health risks in the nation. Poor indoor air quality can be much more than irritating. It can lead to the development of infections or even serious disease.
At Summers™ Plumbing Heating & Cooling (Bloomington-Normal), our knowledgeable technicians are aware of the hidden hazards associated with indoor air pollution. Our highly skilled home and business air quality professionals can evaluate your needs and provide safe and cost-effective options to help you breathe easier. For more than 40 years, we have been offering effective solutions to our customers to achieve comfort in their home.
The average American is spending much more of their time indoors. That’s why it’s more important than ever to pay attention to the indoor air quality inside your home. While new heating and cooling systems are more efficient, they rely on recycled air, which can concentrate particulates to unhealthy levels, making indoor air 2-5 times more polluted than outdoor homes.
If you’re concerned about the indoor air quality in Bloomington-Normal, Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling has the solutions that can help you to breathe easier. We’ve been helping homeowners install air purification and filtration systems for more than 50 years, and we’ve built a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship and customer service.

We hire only fully trained technicians, and we insist that our employees continue to receive training on the latest HVAC technology, to ensure we’re offering our customers only the latest and best in their heating and cooling systems.
Maintaining your home’s indoor air quality isn’t just a matter of feeling more comfortable—it’s about keeping you and your family healthy. Low indoor air quality has a number of negative impacts on your household, especially for sensitive individuals, including:
When these symptoms last for days on end, it’s a good sign that you’re not just suffering from a cold or the flu—you probably have poor indoor air quality. If you think the air inside your home may be making you or your family miserable, contact Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling, and we’ll help you get your indoor air back in shape.
There are several ways you can clean the air in your home and raise your indoor air quality. While each of these solutions will help on their own, you’ll likely find better results when you combine multiple approaches to lowering your indoor air pollution.
Here are some of the indoor air quality services we offer:
At Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling, we can install advanced filtration systems into your HVAC system. Most systems are built to use standard 1” media filters. While these catch most of the larger particles, they still allow many smaller particles to pass into your home’s indoor air.
Our team offers both electrostatic filters and HEPA filtration systems. Both of these filtration systems will catch much smaller particles and help clean your air more effectively. HEPA filters are especially effective, trapping up to 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.
During the winter, the air in your home can get very dry. This leads to the skin, eye, and sinus irritation and it makes it easier for viruses and bacteria to move through the air, which means that you’ll be more likely to catch a cold or the flu.
With a whole-home humidifier, you’ll not only improve your comfort level and decrease the number of germs flying through the air, but you’ll also make your heating more effective since humid air heats more effectively. Even better, these systems work as dehumidifiers during the summer, meaning they’ll help you all year long.
While UV lights don’t physically filter out any particles, they do kill biological material, including viruses, bacteria, and mold spores. When used in conjunction with an advanced filter, UV lights can make your indoor air even cleaner.
Depending on the age of your home, your ductwork may be full of dust and debris, which tends to collect along the walls of your duct to form a thick carpet. This build-up not only reduces the airflow through your ducts but also allows more dust to spread through the air every time the fan comes on.
With a duct cleaning, your HVAC professional will get rid of all of the excess dust in your ductwork, making your air cleaner—and your HVAC system more efficient.
