Premier Indoor has been experts air purification and indoor air quality in the Atlanta area since 1999. They recommend the following:

Dirt, dust and other particles

• Dust your home regularly with a damp rag so you don’t stir up particles. Afterward, vacuum at least once a week using a vacuum with a HEPA filter.
• Always remove shoes at the door to avoid tracking in dirt, pollen and lead particles.
• When weather permits, keep windows slightly open during the day and in the bedroom at night to let bad air out. If you’re concerned about safety or energy loss, consider a ventilation system.
• Keep pets outdoors as often as possible and off the carpet. Make sure to frequently bathe them and wash their bedding materials.
• Keep your heating and air-conditioning system well maintained, and have your ducts cleaned.
• Wash bedding frequently. Because you spend most of your hours at home in your bedroom, it’s the most important room for allergen control.
• Use hot water (at least 130 degrees) and high heat to clean sheets once a week, and mattress pads, blankets and comforter covers once a month.
• Wash children’s stuffed animals in hot water; another option is to place them in a plastic zipper bag and then put in the freezer overnight to kill dust mites.
• Use airtight plastic covers or allergen-proof fabric covers to encase mattresses, box springs and pillows and protect them against dust mites. Mattresses can be cleaned with a vacuum designed for allergen filtration, or treated with an allergen spray available from home stores.
• Regularly change the filters on your heating and air-conditioning system.

Mold, mildew and other living organisms

• Keep relative humidity within a range of 30% and 60%.
• Make sure your home is properly ventilated.
• Stop any water leaks before you try to clean mold to limit its future growth.
• Remove mold from hard surfaces such as ceramic tile by cleaning it with dishwashing liquid and then following with a solution of bleach and warm water.
• Water-damaged carpets, bedding and furniture should be cleaned and dried within 24 to 48 hours, or replaced. Increasing air circulation and ventilating your home with fresher outside air can help.
• Check around air-handling units (air conditioners, furnaces) for stagnant water.
• Turn on your air conditioner and/or dehumidifier during summer months, and use the “auto fan” setting to reduce humidity and save energy.
• Regularly wipe down shower curtain liners.
• Avoid the use of carpets/rugs in rooms below ground level. 

Odors and chemicals

• Store household cleaners, paint solvents and chemical products in tightly sealed containers. If possible, keep them outdoors.
• Avoid using scented deodorizers and odor-masking air fresheners, which may contain toxic chemicals.
• Air out your dry-cleaned clothes before hanging them in your closet.
• Plan craft and home-improvement projects during mild seasons, when workspaces can be easily and comfortably ventilated.
• Choose furnishings that emit the smallest possible amount of chemical vapors.
• Do not allow smoking inside your home and make sure all gas appliances are properly vented.
• Keep the basement area dry.
• Keep your house clean and adequately ventilated.
• Vacuum pet hair and launder animal beds.
• Use exhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom.
• Place an open box of baking soda on a table or other surface to rid a room of smells.
• Another option is to soak a cotton ball with pure vanilla extract and place it on a shallow dish.
• When choosing a humidifier or other air-treatment system, choose one with no ozone emissions. Ozone is a known lung irritant.

Impacts of Bad Air

Does your home seem unusually dusty? Are you constantly fighting off the sniffles? Is static electricity a problem? These are just a few possible signs of the impact Bad Air can have in your home.

Your health

According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, approximately 50% of illnesses are either caused or aggravated by bad air inside the home. What’s “bad” are airborne pollutants and moisture imbalances that can seriously jeopardize your family’s health and well being:

•             Tiny particles and biological contaminants like Pollen, dirt, Mold, Bacteria, Pet Dander, Dust mites and viruses can trigger allergies, asthma or other respiratory problems Indoor Air Quality Canton

•             Odors and chemical vapors from sources like perfumes, cleaning supplies, paints, pets and cooking fumes can cause headaches, fatigue and allergic reactions Indoor Air Quality Ball Ground

•             Too much Humidity can promote the growth of mold, mildew, bacteria and other pollutants that can aggravate allergies and asthma

•             Too little humidity can cause dry skin, sore throats and increase the risk of infections and respiratory ailments

Your comfort

Moisture imbalances are a chief culprit in the battle against bad air. Too much moisture or too little moisture in your home can have a big impact on the way you feel. Indoor Air Quality Kennesaw

If the Humidity level in your home is too high, the air feels sticky, moist and warmer than the actual temperature. You find yourself lowering the thermostat, making the air conditioner work overtime in an attempt to feel more comfortable. Indoor Air Quality Alpharetta

If the Humidity level is too low, the air feels cooler than the actual temperature. You’re more likely to feel tired and achy, have itchy skin and get zapped by annoying static electricity. Indoor Air Quality Marietta

Your home

You’ve spent a lot of time and energy making your house into the perfect home. Bad air can really spoil things. Once again, moisture is the biggest problem.

Too much moisture in the air can cause Mold and mildew damage to nearly any surface, including walls, furniture, carpeting and drapes. In fact, all your valuables need protection from excessive Humidity. Indoor Air Quality Woodstock

Too little moisture can cause problems, too, causing wood floors and furnishings to crack, split or warp. Dry air can cause paint to flake and wallpaper to peel.

According the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the air inside your home may be up to five times—and maybe even 100 times—more polluted than the air outside. So where does all this pollution come from? Fact is, there are many causes of bad air in your home. Indoor Air Quality Roswell

How contaminants get into your home

Tiny particles, some too small to see, can make their way into your home’s air – and into your lungs – from a wide variety of sources, some inside and some outside. Indoor Air Quality Cumming

Particles like dirt, Dust and Pollen enter your home through open doors and windows, or cracks and chimneys. Often they are simply tracked in. Biological contaminants—living organisms like Mold spores, Bacteria and viruses—can also easily find their way inside your home.

Pet Dander, a common allergen, is made up of microscopic particles shed from the body of your dog or cat, even your pet parakeet. Other sources of airborne contamination include perfumes, cleaning supplies, paints, pet odors and cooking fumes. Indoor Air Quality Holly Springs

Poor ventilation

A common problem, especially in newer homes that are tightly sealed to conserve energy, is a lack of airflow. Fresh air can’t make its way inside.

Without proper ventilation, indoor air can’t circulate. It becomes stale and stagnant. Even worse, all those contaminants floating around in the air you breathe have no way to escape. Indoor Air Quality Acworth

High humidity

Too much moisture in the air is a big issue when it comes to bad air. High Humidity creates a breeding ground for dust mites, mold, mildew, viruses and bacteria, which are then released into the air—and then into your lungs. Indoor Air Quality Jasper

Too little moisture inside your home can cause skin irritation, sore throat and respiratory problems,** not to mention static shocks. Indoor Air Quality Austell

Excessive humidity can also promote the release of chemicals from household materials such as the formaldehyde, which is often used in the manufacture of carpeting. For help in Metro Atlanta, Call Premier Indoor at  CALL-404-592-5596Indoor Air Quality Waleska
