Whether it's this Virus or the next one, the real question is what are we doing to stay healthy in our homes now?
The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) they are in charge of protecting America for our Air & Water. They say our homes are 5-10 times more polluted than outdoor air, how do we prove that is correct, because most people get sick in the winter cold months, from closing our doors and windows keeping our homes tighter, trapping the bad air in our homes, causing us to get sick.
As I meet with clients everyday and talk about the ways to improve their (Indoor Air Quality) IAQ, most people have no clue that they have the option to breath healthier air in their homes right now, in which doing so will help in preventing asthma, respiratory issues, sleeping issues, skin issues, germs from spreading causing Viruses to spread, better air to breath means better lungs.
If we are not filtering the Air in our homes as much as we can, then our lungs will filter our air for us.
Our region is 6 months heating, which means our homes can get pretty dry, so most of us should have a humidifier on our HVAC system to provide better humidity in our homes, by doing so we decrease the likelihood of viruses spreading in our homes, as well as all the healthy environment changes it provides to us and to the structure of our homes.
By having the proper humidity in your home you can reduce viruses from spreading by 40%.
Also having a Air Purifier installed into your duct system can kill as much as 99% of all viruses.
Please contact me for more information or for a whole house assessment to make sure your home is a healthy home.
