Does your home or workspace feel less comfortable once the windows stay shut and the heat turns up?
Ann Arbor winters can be tough, but the air quality inside your property shouldn’t add to your worries. Many residents and business owners don’t realize that winter can bring new indoor air quality challenges that impact wellbeing and productivity.
Winter forces us to close up our homes and businesses, sealing in warmth but also trapping pollutants such as dust, mold, VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and particulate matter. Typical winter culprits include:
- Combustion byproducts from fuel space heaters, wood stoves, and fireplaces
- Elevated VOCs from cleaning products or candles
- Excess moisture leading to mold growth
Poor air quality can mean more than minor discomfort; side effects range from headaches and allergies to severe respiratory issues—especially for children, seniors, or anyone with asthma or heart conditions.
Whether you’re running a busy office or caring for your family at home, understanding what’s in your air is the key to making winter healthier for everyone. Schedule an air quality test in Ann Arbor with us today and breathe easier all season long. Contact us today!
