Coughing, Wheezing, and Sneezing? Get an Air Duct Cleaning

Something as simple as duct cleaning can improve your HVAC efficiency, home comfort, and personal health. If you need duct cleaning in Boerne, TX then you should contact our team today.

How to Tell If You Have Low Indoor Air Quality

So, how can you tell if you have low indoor air quality in your home?

Bad Allergies: Don’t write off all your symptoms as fall allergies. If you have headaches, sneezing, watery eyes, coughing, or any of these symptoms, it’s a sign that you have low indoor air quality in your home.

Hot and Cold Spots: Notice that some parts of your home stay freezing all day long while others always seem to remain stuffy. Contaminants accumulating in your ductwork obstructing the flow of air often causes this.

Lots of Dust: Do you dust off all the surfaces in your home, come back a few days later, and notice that all the dust has settled on these surfaces yet again? It’s a frustrating problem that seems like it can’t be solved.

Causes of Low Indoor Air Quality

So now you know how to tell if you have low indoor air quality in your home, but how did this low indoor air quality happen? Your air quality didn’t just become poor overnight, it was a gradual decline caused by a multitude of factors. We’ve listed some of the biggest culprits below:

  • Inadequate fresh air supply or poor ventilation (a major problem in new, energy-efficient homes)
  • Pollutants from cleaning products, microorganisms, cigarette smoke
  • Pet dander
  • Dust mites, dirt, and grime
  • Mold and mildew

Some of these contaminants are hard to avoid, so it’s important to have cleaning services provided by a professional team like ours. If you allow these contaminants to remain in your home endlessly and cycle through your HVAC system then you’ll experience uncomfortable home conditions, bad allergies, worsened colds, and many other symptoms.
