As the temperature drops and the weather gets harsher, we are driven indoors to the comfort of our heating systems. Unfortunately, running your heating systems with the windows all shut for winter can degrade air quality and cause your home to be stuffy and dusty. Luckily, there are some simple ways you can help improve your home’s air quality during the winter. Absolute Supply and Services’ HVAC services include installation, preventative maintenance, repair services, and replacement services.

Turn On the Fan

One simple way to increase the air filtration in your home is to run the fan in your HVAC system. This may increase the wear on your heating system, though, so running the fan should be used as just one way to filter your indoor air. To have a serious impact on your air quality, your HVAC system should be inspected and deeply cleaned.

Clean Out Your HVAC System

A deep cleaning is a great place to start for improving your indoor air quality this winter. By making sure the system is clear of dust and debris, you can eliminate much of the dust, animal dander, and other contaminants impacting your home’s air quality. Flexible wand or dusting attachments can help you clean out the system, while changing your air filter can help your system run clean and efficient. This can make a big difference for your home in the winter.

Call a Professional

A surefire way to improve your indoor air quality and make sure your HVAC system is up to the task of heating your home through the winter is to have a professional inspect your system. In addition to making sure your heating system is safe and efficient, a professional can get into especially hard-to-reach areas to clean out the ductwork and keep dust and debris from circulating throughout your home. A professional may even suggest installing a new air filtration system in order to ensure improved indoor air quality.
