Does winter make indoor air quality worse than the rest of the year? Yes and no. It’s not that the air is worse, but because homes are built to be energy-efficient to hold heat in during the wintertime, that means it’s also keeping the clean air out. Causing higher concentrations of airborne debris in the home.
“What airbone debris?” you say! We’re glad you asked.
Appliances
Many appliances, like fireplaces, water heaters, dryers, and stoves produce airborne debris that can be dangerous. You should have your appliances maintained regularly to help ensure they’re running optimally.
Building Material + Furniture
Insulation, carpeting, cabinetry and furniture may contain and/or release fine dust, airborne debris and odors.
Everyday Consumer Products
We hate to say it, but many household cleaning and maintenance products, personal care products, air fresheners, etc. release airbone debris continuously. And of course, painting, varnishing, sanding, welding, and using adhesives all produce odors that aren’t good for you to breathe in.
Bringing the Outside In
People and pets can track the outdoors into the home and then be trapped inside with no way to escape. Pet hair and dander can also impact the quality of the air in your home.
