Recent EPA studies suggest that indoor air quality is 5 times worse than outdoor air quality. Since we spend the majority of our time indoors, it is important to improve air quality. Mike’s Air Conditioning, a New York City based HVAC contracting company, is using new advanced methods to improve indoor air quality.
According to the Committee on the Assessment of Asthma and Indoor Air report published by the Division of Health Promotion and Disease Prevention at the Institute of Medicine, the prevalence of asthma related hospitalizations and deaths have been increasing exponentially since 1980. Children, especially of African American decent, are extremely susceptible to poor indoor air quality. Homes are essentially becoming death traps when indoor air quality is allowed to degrade.
Exposure to dust, cockroaches and bugs in the cockroach family, toxic and non-toxic molds, smoke, and dander from animals, chemical cleaner fumes and air freshener fumes are the top contributors to poor indoor air quality that affects the health of families worldwide. Families in urban dwellings are at especially high risk for health effects caused by poor indoor air quality.
To improve and maintain healthier indoor air quality it is very important to have HVAC contractors inspect HVAC systems in the home. Removing carpets, cleaning frequently and keeping the filters on AC units clean or replacing filters on air conditioners when needed can help improve indoor air quality enormously.
Mike’s Air Conditioning Company of New York City services Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and the tri-state area. They perform AC duct cleaning using new advanced methods. Mike’s Air Conditioning uses the only equipment and correlating method that brushes and cleans on the point of contact. No harsh chemicals that make indoor air quality worse are used or needed. Their HVAC contractors are well educated about the health risks associated with poor indoor air quality and know how to help families improve their indoor environment.
Air conditioners are one of the best methods to improving indoor air quality. When air conditioners are set on “recycle”, the ac units’ filters continuously clean recycled air. Allergens like dust, mold, smoke and more are consistently and effectively pulled from the air and trapped inside the filters of air conditioners or HVAC systems.
