Indoor Air Quality in Carmel, IN

Walk outside and take a deep breath. People often assume that the air they breathe when outdoors is unhealthy when compared to the air in their homes. Nothing is further from the truth. The Environmental Protection Agency warns homeowners that contaminants in the air within their homes may harm their health. Indoor air quality has declined over the years, yet many people aren’t aware of this.

Contact Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling to have the air in your home tested. Many homeowners express shock when they learn the test results and want immediate action taken to improve indoor air quality. Summers can help, as it provides a range of options for achieving this goal. Modern technology is one way to do so.

Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling has been helping residents in and around Carmel for over 50 years and would love to be of service to you. The technicians do the work quickly, correctly, and affordably, so homeowners have peace of mind knowing their HVAC system remains protected and in good working order.

How to Tell if Air Quality is Poor 

When one or more family members have health issues that conventional medicine cannot seem to resolve, the air quality in the home may serve as the underlying problem. Often, the problems involve allergic reactions or infections. Young kids, seniors, individuals with asthma, and those who have a weakened immune system remain more susceptible to health problems related to poor indoor air quality. What symptoms might a person see?

Sinus congestion that never seems to resolve might indicate there is a problem with air quality. A person may sneeze or cough continuously and they might find it hard to breathe. Migraines and fatigue serve as two additional signs that it is time to have the air quality checked. The same holds for dry and cracked skin as well as dry, red, and watery eyes.

The problem people encounter is the symptoms of poor air quality mimic those of many other illnesses. For this reason, doctors rarely think to ask about air quality in the home. When the symptoms persist, however, and standard treatments don’t address them, it is time to look at other potential causes. Contact Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling for an air quality assessment today.

Improving Air Quality

Homeowners find they have many options for improving the air quality in the home. Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling presents these solutions and makes recommendations on which ones will be best for their house. Each element helps improve air quality, but certain homes need a combination of methods to provide the best results. What solutions might Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling recommend?

Duct Cleaning and Inspection

Often, the source of indoor air quality issues lies within the ductwork. Cleaning and maintaining the ducts improves air quality immediately. These ducts collect dust and debris throughout the year, and the pollutants make their way throughout the home when the system is operating. The occupants of the home breathe these pollutants in or they return to the ductwork through the ventilation system.

When cleaning the ducts, Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling technicians examine the ductwork for leaks. Any leak in the system could lead to more pollutants accumulating in the ductwork. Before leaving the home, the technician also cleans and services the dryer vents, as they collect lint, dander, and more during operation.

Humidity Levels

Homeowners need to monitor humidity levels in the home. Too much moisture in the air and mold and mildew may begin to grow. When the air is dry, the skin, eyes, nose, and throat can become irritated. Whole-house humidifiers and dehumidifiers resolve these issues, and Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling works with clients to find the right products for their needs. The company installs these units directly into the HVAC system. This allows the homeowner to control humidity levels using nothing more than the thermostat.

Air Filter Maintenance and Replacement

Homeowners often forget to replace or clean the air filters. However, this is the best way to improve air quality. When a Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling technician visits the home, they will inspect the air filters and provide a maintenance schedule for cleaning and replacing them.

Homeowners turn to Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling because they know the technician coming to the home is licensed and insured. Furthermore, they have the training needed to do the job right. Quality workmanship and excellent customer service ensure customers return to the company when they need future work.
