Indoor Air Quality

The air inside your home can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air, according to the EPA. Cooking fumes, cleaning products, pet dander, dust mites, mold spores, and outdoor pollutants that make their way inside all contribute to poor indoor air quality. Our indoor air quality services help you breathe easier in your own home.

Peninsula residents face unique air quality challenges. Wildfire smoke during fire season can make outdoor air hazardous and seep into homes. Morning fog brings humidity that promotes mold growth. Pollen from local vegetation triggers allergies. And homes near highways or busy streets are exposed to vehicle exhaust and particulate matter. We understand these local factors and offer solutions tailored to Peninsula conditions.

We offer a range of air quality solutions depending on your specific concerns. High-efficiency air filters (MERV 13 and above) capture smaller particles than standard filters, including many allergens and some bacteria. Whole-home air purifiers, including UV systems and electronic air cleaners, provide additional filtration and can kill airborne pathogens. Whole-home dehumidifiers control humidity levels that promote mold growth, while humidifiers add moisture during dry periods.

For homes particularly concerned about wildfire smoke, we can recommend and install systems specifically designed to handle the fine particulate matter that smoke contains. These become essential during fire season when opening windows isn't an option and standard filtration isn't enough.

We start with an assessment of your current indoor air quality and your specific concerns. Some issues are obvious—persistent odors, visible mold, or allergy symptoms that worsen indoors. Others require investigation. We'll recommend solutions that address your actual problems, not just sell you equipment you don't need.
