When discussing indoor air quality, the topic will always lead to discussion of airborne pollutants: dust, dirt, and other allergens that can get swept up in the air that you breathe in your home. However, that is definitely not where the conversation should end. Removing these pollutants from the air is definitely important, but so too is balancing humidity levels throughout your house. There are a couple of ways for you to do so. One option far outweighs the other, though.
We are an indoor air quality-certified contractor employing indoor air quality-certified technicians.
