Indoor air quality plays a significant role in the health and well-being of your family. From allergies to asthma, the air you breathe at home can have a profound impact on respiratory conditions. In this blog post, we will explore the various ways in which indoor air quality affects your family's health and provide actionable tips to address common issues.Indoor Air Quality and Allergies
Allergies are a common concern for many households. Dust mites, pet dander, pollen, and mold spores are some of the common allergens that can trigger allergic reactions. To mitigate the impact of allergies on your family's health, consider the following tips:
1. Regular Cleaning: Regularly dusting and vacuuming your home helps eliminate allergens that may accumulate on surfaces and in carpets.
2. Air Purification: Invest in a high-quality air purifier to remove allergens from the air. Look for HEPA filters, which are designed to trap even the smallest particles.
3. Maintain Optimal Humidity: Keep humidity levels between 30% and 50% to prevent the growth of mold and dust mites.

Indoor Air Quality and Asthma
Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition that can be exacerbated by poor indoor air quality. To minimize asthma triggers and create a healthier environment for your family, consider implementing the following measures:
1. Eliminate Tobacco Smoke: Smoking indoors should be strictly prohibited, as tobacco smoke is a known trigger for asthma attacks.
2. Ventilate Properly: Ensure proper ventilation in your home to reduce the accumulation of indoor pollutants. Use exhaust fans in kitchens and bathrooms, and open windows when weather permits.
3. Regular HVAC Maintenance: Schedule regular maintenance for your HVAC system to ensure it operates efficiently and doesn't contribute to poor air quality.
The Importance of Indoor Air Quality Testing
Sometimes, the sources of poor indoor air quality may not be immediately apparent. In such cases, professional indoor air quality testing can help identify specific pollutants and their sources. Here's why it's essential:
1. Identify Hidden Issues: Indoor air quality testing can uncover hidden sources of pollution, such as mold growth or volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from household products.
2.Tailored Solutions: With accurate testing results, HVAC professionals can provide targeted solutions to improve your indoor air quality, ensuring the health and safety of your family.
3. Peace of Mind: Knowing that your home's air quality has been thoroughly assessed and improved can provide peace of mind, especially for individuals with pre-existing respiratory conditions.

We’ve used Patriot for several years now and they always provide exceptional service. In particular, their technician, Gabe Simmons, is wonderful to work with. He has been the technician for our home for a few years now and always does a fantastic job. He’s friendly, welcoming, and remembers specifics about our home. I can’t recommend him enough.

I love the way Patriot is organized, and gives you updates as to when your technician will arrive. Cody was just a couple of minutes past the appointment time, and apologized for it. He was professional, courteous, and shared some great information about my furnace and air conditioner. I really like the way that Patriot gives you a printed maintenance checklist; what a great idea !

We’ve had work done from Mike at Patriot a few different times and everything has been great. From replacing the entire HVAC system to tune ups, Mike has been extremely punctual, helpful, efficient, and friendly. We really appreciate his work and courteous manner with a house full of young kids. We will always call Patriot with our home needs as pricing, work, and staff have been superb. Thank you!

Mike did an excellent job working in my furnace and AC units to make sure they are running at peak performance. I am very pleased with Patriot and all they do for our families comfort. Justin came back out to replace the fan motor in the air conditioning unit on warranty. Thanks to both Mike and Justin for the excellent service.

Great service. Cody, the technician, is always polite, on time,, and always put plastic wraps on shoes before coming inside the house. I showed him today that my thermostat is off (according to my other 2 thermometers I put side by side). He called the company and they gave me the new one even it is after 3 years since I purchased the new system with them. Very honest company. Thank you.
