While hygiene is at the forefront of everybody’s concern, let’s talk about the pollution inside your home and how you can reduce it. Your HVAC system plays a crucial role in maintaining indoor air quality by providing heating or cooling, humidification or removal of excess humidity and controlling airborne contaminants. Properly maintained HVAC systems improve air quality inside your house, and keep the units running at peak efficiency. In addition to installing HVAC units and many other services, we here at Lenegan Plumbing & Heating LLC also make sure your equipment is running properly with a preventative maintenance check.

So what is indoor air pollution? It’s mold, pet hair, dander, dust, bacteria or pathogens that migrate inside- contributing to indoor air pollution that can effect people with allergies or chronic illnesses. In addition to keeping the temperature inside your home comfortable, your HVAC system can cut down on the amount of pollution entering inside your home… as long as its running efficiently.

We recommend scheduling to have your heating and cooling equipment checked at least twice a year- once in the Spring to ensure you’re ready for Summer and once in the Fall to get ready for Winter. Our professionals also inspect your unit with an extensive checklist, you can see the full list here.

In addition to having your HVAC unit checked over, our professionals will also take a look at your ventilation system. A properly designed ventilation system reduces indoor air pollution by providing fresh air, controlling odors, and removing contaminants. For instance, exhaust fans can help to remove fumes from manufacturing activities and the use of chemicals or other materials.
