Microscopic particles float around your home and get recirculated by your HVAC system. The most common pollutants in most homes include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Mold and mildew<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pet hair and dander<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pollen and other allergens<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Household cleaning products and chemicals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Smoke and air pollution<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pests<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dust and dust mites<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Humidity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Signs You Need to Test Your Air Quality<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While most airborne contaminants go unnoticed, there are some signs that your indoor air quality is suffering. Your health is a key indicator. If you don\u2019t feel your best for an extended period, consider if you have frequent headaches, fatigue, chest tightness, and cold-like symptoms including scratchy throat, stuffy nose, irritated sinuses, cough, and congestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to Fix Poor Air Quality<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indoor air quality shows significant improvement with some simple solutions. The first is ensuring your HVAC air filter is clean and changed regularly, ideally every 30-90 days. Controlling the humidity is another way to have healthier air in your home. Adding an air purifier or filtration system is another option for cleaning your indoor air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Air quality testing is a great way to find out if the air you and your family breathe is clean.
