How to Improve Indoor Air Quality in Winter

Winter is when we spend the most time indoors, with the windows closed and the heat running. That traps dust, allergens and dry air inside the home.

“Keeping indoor humidity between 30% and 40% makes a home feel warmer at a lower thermostat setting.”

A few upgrades to your heating system make a noticeable difference.

  • Upgrade to a high-MERV or HEPA filter.
  • Add a whole-home humidifier for dry winter air.
  • Install an ERV for fresh air without losing heat.
  • Have your ducts cleaned and sealed every five to seven years.

Our indoor air quality specialists can measure your home’s air and recommend only what will make a real difference.
