- In general, Indoor Air is 4 TO 5 TIMES more polluted than outdoor air.
- Indoor Air is responsible for or aggravates over half of all illnesses that adults and children suffer from. (Study: Commonwealth of Massachusetts)
Poor indoor air quality negatively affects the health of more than 15 million Americans who suffer from asthma and more than 28 million of Americans who battle various types of allergies. Over 70% of U.S. Households are affected by allergies or asthma. Even more alarming, one in every 13 school-age children suffer from asthmatic problems.
- Children are especially at risk by poor air quality; because children have a much higher respiratory rate than adults, they inhale 50% more air per pound of body weight than do adults, thus making them much more sensitive to poor air quality.
- Approximately 87% of U.S. homeowners are unaware of indoor air pollutions and take absolutely no preventative measures to address poor indoor air quality. 90% of all of these homeowners have children living in their household.
- Indoor air pollutants can cause nasal and throat irritations, headaches, fatigue, nausea, and allergic and asthmatic reactions.
- Thousands of types of indoor air pollutants exist in your home – many of which can not be seen by the naked eye. All of these pollutants can be either eliminated or controlled with proper air purification equipment.
Exposure to indoor air pollutants has increased for numerous reasons, including the more frequent use of chemically formulated personal care products, synthetic materials, and common household cleaners and products. In addition, homes built after the late 1970’s have insulation wraps much tighter than those built in prior years; these tighter wraps have a greater tendency to trap odors, pollutant particles, smoke, and other irritants indoors and within the confines of your home.

Most people spend the majority of their time inside their home. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns that the air inside your home 
may be at least 5 times more polluted than outside air. The EPA has listed indoor air quality as one of the top five environmental health risks that we face.
Ultraviolet or (UV) light is the newest tool to be used for improving indoor air quality. These lights work by shining an intense UV light on indoor particles that pass through your heating and air conditioning system.
This will leave your air free of harmful microorganisms that can lead to allergies, asthma. This intense UV light kills all harmful organisms that pass by through it, to include bacteria and viruses as well as the common cold and other more dangerous illnesses.
The benefits of having a UV light installed also include overall efficiency of your air conditioning. A system efficiency loss of 20% or more can occur with a dirty coil.
This causes poor performance of your system as well as increased utility bills. Having a UV light installed can also help to keep your coil clean.
