Autumn brings seasonal allergies, dust, shifting temperatures, and increased exposure to germs. These variables can compromise your building’s indoor air quality (IAQ).
As we head indoors, it’s important to stay healthy, comfortable, and productive. That starts with the air we breathe. Your HVAC system and your service provider have a critical role in maintaining fresh, clean, healthy air.
HVAC maintenance is crucial to optimizing your IAQ. There’s no better time than now to review our indoor air quality health checklist and ensure you’re ready for whatever the changing seasons bring.
- Make Sure Your Building Is Properly Ventilated
Verify that your HVAC system is supplying sufficient outside air for the building. When your building is at full capacity, it’s important to make sure your system can provide proper circulation and ventilation.
- Use the Best Air Filters
Using the best air filters for your building and regularly replacing them is essential. Dirty filters restrict air flow and make your HVAC system work harder.
- Use Air Quality Technology
Installing IAQ technologies help to mitigate airborne germs & allergens, mold spores, harmful gases, and dust particles in real time. Keeping the air safer and more comfortable for everyone.
- Evaluate the Trouble Spots in Your Building
Some areas tend to have poorer air quality than others. For example, bathrooms, locker rooms, storage spaces can be musty, while kitchens, production plants, warehouses may have other IAQ nuisances that need to be resolved. These trouble areas can be remedied by installing IAQ Technologies.
- Keep Up with Regular HVAC Preventative Maintenance
Routine cleaning and inspections of your system’s coils, diffusers, and air dampers are essential to keep everything running smoothly. Don’t wait for the equipment to break down, act now. Preventative maintenance improves air quality, reduces costly repairs, and lowers energy bills.
By staying proactive with maintenance, you’re on the right track to achieve improved HVAC performance, cleaner air and better energy efficiency. Our team is ready to take this work and worry off your hands.
