What Is Indoor Air Quality?

Indoor air quality describes the cleanliness of the air inside your Fairfax home. It can significantly impact your health, comfort, and overall well-being. Particulates like dust and pollen can exacerbate allergies and asthma, biological pollutants like bacteria and viruses can lead to illness, and humidity issues can lead to everything from dry skin to mold growth.

Benefits of Indoor Air Quality Services

Professional indoor air quality solutions offer products and services that can make the air you breathe fresher and cleaner. Benefits of these services include:

• Allergy symptom relief: Removing dust, pollen, and more can reduce your allergy and asthma symptoms.
• Improved energy efficiency: Clean air filters and ductwork will reduce strain on your HVAC system, leading to less energy usage and lower bills.
• Less dust: Purifiers that attract and trap dust can result in a cleaner home and less dust on indoor surfaces.
• Fewer odors: Odors from pets, cooking, and smoke can all be eliminated by the right indoor air quality solutions.
• Mold prevention: Excess moisture in the air can lead to dangerous mold and mildew growth which can impact your property and your health.

Air Scrubbers & Purifiers

Air purifiers and scrubbers are effective tools for improving the quality of your air, thanks to their powerful filtration. These systems use filtration, UV-C light, and ionization to trap particles and pollutants. As a result, these systems remove contaminants from the air, allow for maximum HVAC efficiency, and lead to greater health and comfort.

Humidifiers & Dehumidifiers

Moisture balance is also key for your total comfort. A home that struggles with dry air can cause chapped lips, irritated nasal passages, and sleep issues, while too much moisture can lead to mold growth, structural damage, and a greater chance of illness. That’s why C.B. Lucas offers installation of both humidifiers and dehumidifiers to help you achieve the optimal humidity in your home.

Duct Cleaning, Repair & Maintenance

Dust and dirt in your home’s ductwork can be distributed throughout your home along with your heated and cooled air. By scheduling duct cleaning with our team, you can ensure that your ducts are free of any particles or pollutants that will impact your health or limit your overall comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are other ways to improve my IAQ?

Besides installing IAQ products, you should also vacuum regularly, use low-VOC household chemicals, and keep your space well-ventilated.

How often should I change my HVAC filters?

Homeowners should change their HVAC filters every one to three months. Those with pets, allergies, or excess dust should opt for every month to improve health and air quality.

What are the best HVAC options for indoor air quality?

The best HVAC options for indoor air quality will have high-efficiency filtration and built-in air purifiers. Ductless mini-splits are an especially good option as there is no ductwork that can become dusty or dirty to then spread contaminants in the air.
