    Common contaminants that you need to be wary of include carbon monoxide, dust, dirt, pet dander and pollen. Climate Control can conduct an indoor air quality test to see what types of contaminants are present in your home. From there, we can recommend the right solutions for your home. Our main goal is to make sure that your home is as comfortable as possible.

    Reasons to Install Dehumidifiers

    The ideal relative humidity range within a home should fall between 30% and 60%. Anything above that is considered too moist and can encourage the growth of microbial pathogens. Your home might be too humid if you notice that your bath towel remains wet until the next day or if you see condensation on the windows all the time. High humidity levels can be damaging for your health. The solution to this is to install dehumidifiers. Dehumidifiers extract moisture from the air and remove them from the environment. They have the ability to reduce the relative humidity levels in your home to more reasonable levels.

    Some of the reasons why you might want to install this appliance include:
    • Prevent musty odors in the home
    • Eliminate mold or mildew growth
    • Improve health symptoms
    • Minimize condensation buildup on windows and walls

    There are many different types of dehumidifiers. We highly recommend that you install a whole-house dehumidifier, as it will be able to control relative humidity levels within the entire home.

    What UV Lights Can Do

    If you are concerned about pathogens, like germs, in your home, consider installing UV lights. UV lights are able to kill germs and bacteria. The key is that some of these germs and bacteria need to come into direct contact with the UV lights. Our team can figure out what types of pathogens are in your air based on an air quality test. We can also help you figure out what types of pathogens you are likely exposed to based on the types of flu that you get.

    Filters

    From there, we’ll figure out where the UV lights should be installed. You may need more than one UV light depending on how your HVAC system is set up. Most of the time, we will install the lights in an area where air enters the home.


    Some of the things that you can enjoy after installing UV lights include:
    • Improved health symptoms
