What Causes Poor Indoor Air Quality?
Did you know that unfiltered indoor air can be up to 100 times more polluted than outdoor air? Furthermore, unlike the outside, the pollutants in your home have nowhere to escape. Before long, you could find yourself dealing with a build-up of contaminants, such as:
- Dust
- Spores
- Chemical cleaners
- Tobacco smoke
- Dust mites
- Mould and mildew
Another problem you could experience is excessive humidity.
Your home needs a bit of humidity to keep the air inside comfortable. However, too much humidity can be problematic.
For instance, excess humidity can make breathing a challenge and create conditions that promote mould growth. Fortunately, you can resolve this issue by installing a state-of-the-art dehumidifier from Sasquatch Home Services.
Our systems work together with your air conditioner to regulate humidity levels and protect your home’s air quality. They can even help you prevent the growth of mould and mildew.

What Are the Risks of Poor Indoor Air Quality?
It can be easy to underestimate the dangers that airborne pollutants carry. On top of making your breathing difficult, poor air quality can also have negative impacts on your health. For instance, you could find yourself experiencing symptoms, such as:
- Coughs
- Sneezes
- Dizziness
- Watery eyes
- Fatigue
- Difficulty breathing
- Headaches
- Sinus congestion
These symptoms could be much worse for those with respiratory issues or prone to flu or allergies. In extreme cases, you or your family could even experience fevers, chills, muscle pain, nausea, and chronic sickness.
As dangerous as this sounds, the good news is that there are measures you can put in place to effectively address the issue.
