If your home has poor indoor air quality (IAQ), you may suffer from discomfort. Although you may do an excellent job of keeping your home clean, there are still several airborne irritants that can sneak in, some of which are even found in your cleaning products or off-gassed from new furniture and craft supplies.

Fortunately, there are several things you can do to help keep the air clean in your Baton Rouge home.

Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

You should have your air conditioner tuned up early in the spring and schedule heater maintenance each year in the fall. These annual visits keep your HVAC system in prime condition. As part of this maintenance, our technicians thoroughly clean all the components of your heating and cooling installations to remove dust, pollen, dander, and grime, which will lower the air quality in your home.

Change Your Air Filters

You should inspect the air filter in your HVAC system once a month for visible signs of dust and dirt. Change your filters as needed or at least once every three months. A clean filter will help remove pollutants from the air in your home.

Have Your Ducts Serviced

Your ducts are responsible for circulating air throughout the home. If they’re filled with allergens and irritants, they’ll likely blow them right into your home. We offer thorough duct cleaning services that will remove mold, dirt, dust, and other hazards from this part of your home. The result isn’t only healthier; it’s also more efficient, so you’ll enjoy lower energy bills as a result!
