The amount of industry in Houston and Brookshire obviously leads to air pollution. It enters homes on shoes and clothing, on hair and skin, as well as being blown through the HVAC unit. Additionally, furnishings, floor coverings, and cleaning supplies have chemicals harming air quality in the home. Here are five benefits of good indoor air quality: 1. Better Breathing Respiratory illnesses are triggered by dozens of things in indoor air. Perfumes, cigarette smoke, air fresheners and other irritants cause the chest to tighten, triggering an asthma attack. Asthma can lead to death. When irritants and pollutants are removed from the air, the chest is open and breathing is fluid. The lungs, heart, and body work better. 2. Fewer Allergens Allergens cause coughing, dry, itchy eyes, sneezing, congestion, and other problems. Allergens aren’t only found in flowers, grass, and trees, though. It’s found in insect and rodent effluvia, dust and dust mites, mold, and animal dander. A good indoor air quality system clears all that from the air for better allergy management. 3. Better Sleep A good night’s sleep is interrupted by breathing in Volatile Organic Compounds or VOCs. They reduce the oxygen we breathe, so we sleep restlessly. Breathing...

One of the best and cost-effective ways to keep your AC system operating for an extended period is by having a professional come for a check-up and maintenance from time to time. This is considered standard ongoing AC maintenance which is recommended by heating and cooling manufacturers. Failure to get the standard ongoing maintenance may lead the air conditioning system to suffer significant issues, and you will end up spending a lot of money on its repair and maintenance or for replacement once the system can no longer provide services. Scheduling for regular inspections and maintenance services maximizes its lifespan while saving your cash. When is the best time for scheduling the maintenance services? Spring and fall seasons are the best time to schedule for the maintenance of your air conditioner. During the period, the climate is warm enough, and you can run your cooling system without any worries and have enough time and choices to schedule a comprehensive inspection with a professional air conditioning technician. Waiting until winter for your air conditioning system to have the maintenance services will be putting yourself and your family in uncomfortable temperatures. Also, it might expose them to deadly conditions such as toxic...

Winter can be a hit on your energy bill, but there are many ways you can save on your heating and other energy costs. The first thing to do is turn your thermostat down to 68F. Every degree of extra heating will increase your energy usage a minimum of 6%. Turn down your thermostat 10-15 degrees during periods when you’re asleep or out of the house. This will save you about 10% on your heat bills. Utilize the natural sunlight. If the sun is out and facing towards your windows attempt opening the curtains to let the sun heat your house. You can close curtains to keep the heat in at night or once the direct sunlight passes your house. Keep your fireplace dampers closed unless you’re burning a fire. If the damper is open a draft could be sucking the warm air out of your house and up the chimney. Before bad weather hits take some time to weatherize your house. Add weather strips to windows and doors and finish up by caulking any air gaps around pipes, windows and doors. Also take some time to add extra insulation, if needed, to your attic. Make sure to clean your...

Most buildings have spaces within the walls, ceilings, and floors where ducts can be run in order to channel temperature treated air. These are great for most types of buildings. But what about situations where ducts are simply not available? More often than not, this means we have to put up with noisy, drippy, and somewhat dangerous window units that come with a lot of problems. Traditional window cooler units are heavy. This means they have to be clamped or drilled in place. They mark up the window pane, draw moisture, frequently accumulate mold and bugs- and they are very noisy. Worst of all, it is usually very difficult to form a strong seal around these units, which means they are inefficient- and when you do manage to make a good seal- the appliance becomes a permanent feature, spoiling the view. Ductless HVAC Ductless “mini-split” temperature treatment systems offer single zone or multi-zone climate control depending on your needs and your budget. Ductless systems come in a variety of forms that cover a range of heating or cooling needs. They are much simpler to install than a new duct-dependent system. With a simple wall or floor mount and a single...
