Indoor Air Quality In our newer homes or renovated older homes indoor air quality is becoming more important all the time. Our houses are getting tighter with new windows, doors and insulation. In fact our houses are having trouble breathing. Don’t forget all the new things we are adding like large jetted tubs, dishwashers, steam showers and more. All these add to moisture problems and potential mould. On the other side we add forced air furnaces to dry out our homes like the desert. With all of these great additions to our quality of life we can add systems to control our indoor environment. Lets look at treating the air first.
Ultra Violet Lights The system I have in my home is the Sanuvox system. All our staff have this installed in their homes, we know it works. This is a light installed in your existing forced air furnace and it treats the air as it comes into contact with the light. Check out all the technical information at http://www.sanuvox.com you will be amazed how effective this is in controlling odours and bacteria. For those of you that need a little extra convincing ask about the portable unit that we can lend out. Ideally this is best used in the bedroom of someone with allergies or a sensitivity to dust and mould etc. We lend it out for a couple of days; you see how this makes a difference to your sleeping and breathing. Then we return and try to get it back! Generally we then schedule an installation date. A number of the doubters have bought the portable to use at work to combat the poor air in sealed office buildings. |
