SERVPRO professional cleaning services can help improve indoor air quality during the winter

12/9/2021 (Permalink)

Ventilation, cleaning, and circulation are keys to a healthy indoor environment, indoor air contaminants can include moisture, dust, pollen and mold.

As fall fades into winter and temperatures get colder and colder, shutting the windows, closing the doors, and minimizing heat loss from air leaks becomes a priority to avoid higher heating costs. The key to a healthy indoor environment is a balance between insulation and ventilation. Modern improvements in building and maintenance practices have made buildings increasingly airtight with various types of insulation and high-efficiency windows and doors. Reducing the amount of warm air escaping to the outdoors and the amount of cold outside air coming in means building occupants are breathing more recirculated air. Ventilation, cleaning, and circulation are keys to a healthy indoor environment, indoor air contaminants can include moisture, dust, pollen, mold spores, pollutants, and odors. If your building is too tight, with poor ventilation indoor air becomes trapped and gets more and more contaminated.

DIY Tips to Improve Indoor Air Quality:

• Use bathroom and kitchen exhaust fans to help ventilate the air
• Inspect for moisture-related concerns (mold, mildew, etc.) and fix water damage problems quickly
• Consider opening a window to introduce fresh air on a mild day
• Install and maintain smoke and carbon monoxide detectors on every level and outside sleeping areas

Air Duct and Vent Cleaning
HVAC systems are often the biggest culprit in poor indoor air quality and a leading cause in increased allergy symptoms. The air inside your home/business is full of tiny particles like dust, pollen, and debris. When your furnace or air conditioner draws air, it also pulls in airborne particles. Over time, these contaminants can build up inside the ducts, reducing airflow and re-circulating allergens throughout your living/working space. Keeping dust, pollen, pet dander, and other irritants out of the air you breathe involves more than changing the air filter, proper HVAC unit and air duct maintenance is essential to reducing allergens inside your commercial or residential property and improve air quality. Our trained professionals at SERVPRO of East Windsor use commercial-grade, duct-cleaning equipment, brushes, and air whips, that remove dust and debris trapped inside your duct system and leave your property with optimal indoor air quality.

Intensive Upholstery, Carpet and Floor Cleaning

SERVPRO of East Windsor utilizes the best technology and highest-quality equipment that effectively removes dust, pollen, and other allergens to keep your home or business allergen free and your carpets and flooring looking like new. Our professional cleaning will address moderate and heavy soil conditions in your carpets, dirt builds up in layers, and when a carpet looks dirty you are only seeing the dirt at the tips of the fibers. More dirt is hiding below the surface down near the base of the pile, causing damage to the carpet.
