Indoor Air Quality Services for Cleaner, Healthier Air

Indoor air quality, also called IAQ, is a term coined by environmentalists that refers to the quality of air in buildings and how air pollutants can affect the health of those breathing the air. Become more aware of the realities of indoor air pollution and the importance of indoor air quality in your home with help from the experts at Lavco Air Conditioning & Heating. We specialize in providing you with air purification options that will make your home healthier and more energy efficient.


Indoor air quality is important for every home, especially if you or your loved ones suffer from allergies or asthma. Studies from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) show that even in the smoggiest cities, the air inside most modern homes is usually at least 10 times more polluted than the air outside.


There are many reasons for this, including invisible assassins like radon and CO2. Other culprits are gas-emitting chemicals like formaldehyde, which is used in making modern carpeting, drapery, household cleaners, furniture, and building materials. There are also common airborne pollutants, such as pollen, viruses, dust, and dust mites. Damp areas with standing water can also breed mold, mildew, and other unhealthy microbes.


Much of this problem is attributed to how modern homes are built for energy efficiency and to be as air-tight as possible. The consequence is that stale air, laced with odors, chemicals, irritants, and even minuscule insects, often becomes trapped in modern homes and circulates over and over. This can lead to eye irritation, sinus congestion, sneezing, runny nose, stuffiness, colds, flu, headaches, dizziness, outbreaks of allergies and asthma, sore throats, and various other respiratory ailments.


Today’s homeowners need to become more aware of the importance of IAQ and what they can do about it, which is why we offer various indoor air cleaning solutions at Lavco Air Conditioning & Heating.

  • What is a whole-home air cleaner?

    There are many types of air cleaners on the market today, including media air cleaners, electronic air cleaners, and HEPA air cleaners. Whole-home air cleaners make your air as clean as possible by removing particulates from your air, allowing you to breathe healthier air. This is important if you have allergies or asthma and if you want the cleanest air possible for yourself and your family. An air cleaner installed by your heating and cooling contractor can help rid your home of dust, dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, pollen, bacteria and viruses, smoke, and more!

  • How do air cleaners work?

    Air cleaners are installed as part of your home’s central heating and cooling system, completely out of your way and out of sight. That means every time your system runs, the air in your home is filtered through a state-of-the-art filter media that removes potentially harmful contaminants from every room of your home.


    The resulting clean air is then distributed via your heating and cooling system’s ductwork to your entire home. Best yet, the system is easy to maintain with infrequent maintenance that is only required every one to two years, unlike portable units that require monthly care or standard filters that need cleaning every one to three months.


    Turn your central heating and cooling system into a whole-house air cleaner!


    Poor indoor air quality can cause or contribute to the development of chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. In addition, it can cause headaches, dry eyes, nasal congestion, nausea, and fatigue. If you already have respiratory diseases, you are at an even greater risk.

  • Why do you need whole-house air cleaning?

    • Each person inhales over 3,500 gallons of air each day. Children inhale more particles for their size than adolescents or adults
    • Polluted air causes 94% of all respiratory problems
    • More than 31 million Americans have been diagnosed with asthma, and about 1/3 are children under 18
    • About 40,000 dust mites, a common household allergen, can live in one ounce of dust
    • An estimated 10-15% of the entire population may be allergic to cat or dog dander
    • A person sheds up to 700,000 skin flakes per day
