4 Home Upgrades for Better Indoor Air Quality
-
Ventilation
Whole-home ventilation with an energy recovery ventilator (ERV) replaces stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air.
-
Dehumidification
A whole-home dehumidifier reduces humidity to comfortable levels and prevents allergy-causing mold growth.
-
Duct Cleaning & Sealing
Duct cleaning removes dust, dirt, and debris from your air ducts, while duct sealing prevents contaminants from entering.
-
Radon Testing
Radon, an invisible gas, is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. and can enter the home via the crawlspace.
