Indoor Air Pollution

Do you have an indoor air pollution problem?

The Environmental Protection Agency claims that indoor air is more polluted than outdoor air. Considering that on average people spend 90% of their time indoors, this is quite alarming!

"The EPA ranks poor indoor air quality among the top five environmental risks to public health."
American Lung Association

"Those who are most susceptible to indoor air pollution are children, pregnant women, and the elderly."
National Safety Council

"Contaminated central air handling systems can become breeding grounds for mold, mildew, and other sources of biological contaminates."
Environmental Protection Agency

"Fifty percent of all illness is aggravated or caused by polluted indoor air."
American College of Allergies

"Levels of air pollution inside the home can be two to five times higher than outdoor levels."
Environmental Protection Agency

If you answer yes to any of the following questions, your home may suffer from "indoor air pollution".

• Do you have an air circulating system that utilizes a standard fiberglass filter?
• Do you have pets?
• Are there smokers in the house?
• Does anyone in your house suffer from allergies, asthma, or other respiratory problems?
• Do you regularly clean excessive dust accumulations from your household furniture?
• Do you experience headaches, nausea, burning sensations in the nose, throat, or eyes when inside the home?
• Do you have "dust trails" or discoloring coming out of your air duct registers?
• When you last changed your furnace filter, did you see dust and dirt inside the filter housing?

Dirt, dust, mold, pollen, and animal dander are recirculated through our air ducts every time we turn on our heat or air conditioning. When combined with moisture, the ideal breeding ground for fungi, germs, and household mold is created. Studies have confirmed that some diseases, including salmonella, strep, and legionnaires disease are spread by contaminated air ducts.

Improve the quality of your indoor air with air duct cleaning.
