At The K Company, our priority is helping you to improve your indoor air quality (IAQ). Without taking measures to address indoor pollution, your health could be at risk for allergies, asthma, and other chronic illnesses.

Here in the United States, we spend more time indoors than ever before in our history. This can negatively affect our health as our indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than our Ohio outdoor air.

Our indoor air quality professionals are well educated and experienced on effective systems for improving your home’s inside air. We continue to stay on top of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry and advancements made in this area to bring you the best at all times.

What Causes Poor Indoor Air Quality?

Indoor air quality is affected by anything that releases gas or particles. Indoor environmental toxins exist in your Akron, OH, home’s air from various pollutants such as cleaning and personal-care products, smoking, burning of fossil fuel, and some types of treated wood and building materials.

Other contributors could be inadequate ventilation, unmaintained HVAC systems, and excessive moisture creating mold and bacteria.

What Are Symptoms of Poor Indoor Air Quality?

Many times symptoms of poor indoor quality are mistaken as respiratory issues like colds or allergies. Common acute health reactions are flu-like symptoms, dizziness, headaches, nose bleeds, fatigue, sore throats, and upper respiratory congestion.

Continual or repeated exposure to indoor pollutants can result in more serious health conditions like heart disease, respiratory diseases, and even cancer. The most proactive stance you can take to protect your family is to improve your Akron, OH, home’s indoor air quality.

What The K Company Recommends

We only offer the highest quality as well as the most effective and efficient systems to achieve excellent indoor air quality. Our air quality professionals are well trained on installing, replacing, repairing, and maintaining many different types of systems to help improve your home’s indoor air.

Though we work with various air quality systems, the ones we recommend time after time with the greatest results are:

  • Air purifiers. Air purifiers attach to your existing HVAC system. They sanitize your home’s air by utilizing negative ions, ozone, heat, or ultraviolet (UV) or UVC lights.
  • Air cleaners. Air cleaners attach to your existing HVAC system, requiring installation by a professional like one of our The K Company specialists. These cleaners filter the air, stopping pollutants like dust and pet dander from passing into your home for you to breathe.
  • Electronic air cleaners. Electronic air cleaners attach to your HVAC unit. They use electronically charged filters to decrease the airborne contaminants in your home. The electronic air cleaner traps large particles, then electronically charged filters attract and trap the smaller particles.
  • Ultraviolet (UV) lights. UV lights are installed in your HVAC unit. Air passing through the UV lamps destroys the microbes. The clean air then circulates through your Ohio home where it is now safe for everyone.
  • Whole-house dehumidifiers. Whole house dehumidifiers attach to your HVAC system and regulate your home’s humidity level by removing excess moisture from your Akron, OH, home’s air. Too much moisture breeds mold and mildew, damaging your home’s interior and sending dangerous spores into your breathing air.
  • Whole-house humidifiers. Whole house humidifiers work in the opposite manner of dehumidifiers. Like the dehumidifier, these attach to your home’s HVAC system. But these systems distribute moisture into a too-dry atmosphere. A lack of moisture damages your home and can cause breathing and illness issues for you.
  • Ventilators. Ventilation units work in conjunction with your HVAC system. Different ventilators like energy recovery ventilators (ERVs), heat recovery ventilators (HRVs), and exhaust fans help bring essential ventilation into your home to provide fresh air.
  • Carbon-monoxide alarms. We install carbon monoxide alarms in your home to immediately alert you in the event of a dangerous carbon monoxide leak.
  • Thermostats. Thermostats can help affect the condition of your air by controlling the temperature and humidity in your Akron, OH, home. Various inside temperatures activate different elements like your whole-house humidifier and whole-house dehumidifier. You can exert even more control by installing a smart thermostat and linking these other indoor air quality units to it.
