Good indoor air quality is critical to a healthy living environment, but detecting when it’s compromised can be challenging. Poor air quality can have subtle yet significant impacts on your health and comfort. At LC Myers Environmental, we are experienced in improving indoor air quality. Here are key signs that your indoor air may need attention.
- Persistent Allergies or Respiratory Issues – It could indicate poor indoor air quality if you or your family are experiencing ongoing allergies, asthma flare-ups, or other respiratory issues, especially at home.
- Unusual Odors – Persistent musty or stale odors can indicate mold growth or stagnant air, which are both detrimental to air quality. A professional inspection can identify and help resolve the underlying causes.
- Increased Dust Accumulation – Even after regular cleaning, excessive dust around your home suggests that indoor air may contain high particulates, which can degrade air quality.
- Humidity Issues – Too much or too little humidity can affect air quality. Excessive humidity fosters mold growth and mites, while dry air can cause respiratory discomfort and skin irritation.
- Visible Mold Growth – Visible mold or mildew in your home indicates poor indoor air quality. Mold spores can significantly affect the air you breathe and require professional remediation.
- Fatigue and Headaches – Chronic fatigue, headaches, or lethargy, especially during long periods at home, can be symptomatic of poor indoor air quality.
Recognizing these signs is the first step toward addressing indoor air quality issues. If you’re experiencing these signs, it’s time to act—contact us for a professional evaluation.
