We want you to have the most informed insights on topics such as Indoor Air Quality Products & Solutions, ensuring a comfortable and healthy living environment. Let’s get started.

Myth Number 1: Air Inside the Home is Cleaner than Air Outside

Contrary to popular belief, indoor air can be more polluted than outdoor air. The reason is the lack of ventilation can lead to an accumulation of pollutants such as pet dander, dust mites, and cigarette smoke, among others. These can trigger allergies and other health issues. Our extensive range of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) products allows you to monitor and control air quality, improving the overall health of your household.

Myth Number 2: Indoor Plants Can Clean the Air

While indoor plants can brighten up a space, they are inadequate in purifying the air. Large numbers of plants would be needed to make a significant difference, and frankly, that’s unrealistic in most homes. This is where air purifiers come into play. A good purifier can remove a host of floating pollutants providing a healthier environment for you and your loved ones.

Myth Number 3: Opening Windows Can Always Improve Indoor Air Quality

Although cracking open a window can allow fresh air in, it can also bring in outdoor pollutants such as pollen and dust. This can exacerbate allergy symptoms. Using a mechanical ventilator with your HVAC system can regulate indoor air quality without the risk of outside allergens and is a more effective solution.
