Air Conditioning Solutions to Improve Indoor Air Quality
Thinking about germs lately??
Not long ago Hot 2 Cold brought on a mechanical engineer, James Thornsberry, to focus on one of our nation’s most prominent and silent killers, poor air quality. According to the EPA the air inside your home is 200%-500% dirtier than the air outside! If you have a young home, built in the year 2000 or later, the problems can be worse!
With strict energy efficiency guidelines homes are tighter than ever. This helps bring down energy consumption, but has a terrible downside… it can make us sick. Inside a tight house, particles get trapped inside, gases from the building materials, carpet, and paint leach into the air (VOCs), and mechanical systems (like the dryer, hood vent, and bathroom fans) suck air out of the house which in turn pulls dirty, unfiltered, air from the attic into the home.
