Indoor Air Quality
Did you know that the air quality inside the average home is often two to five times more contaminated than the air outside? Poor indoor air quality is a problem found in many homes, and it can lead to a number of health issues, especially for those who suffer from allergies, asthma and other respiratory illnesses.
Whether the air in your home is too dry, too moist, or there is dust flying around everywhere, the indoor air quality specialists at Ravinia Plumbing, Sewer, Heating & Electric have plenty of solutions to help you. Contact us today to schedule indoor air quality services in Lincolnshire, Highland Park, Chicago’s North Shore and Chicago’s Northwest suburbs.
Types of Indoor Air Quality Services Ravinia Plumbing Offers
Ravinia Plumbing is proud to offer the following indoor air quality solutions and services:
- Air cleaners
- Air duct repair
- Air purifiers
- Humidifiers
- Dehumidifiers
Air Cleaners
Whole house air cleaners are typically installed on the return air duct of your home’s HVAC system to provide coverage for your entire home – unlike portable air cleaners that focus on just one room or small area of your home. Air cleaners eliminate up to 99% of particles including dust mites, pet dander, mold, plant spores and much more to create a healthier indoor living environment.
Air Duct Repair
According to Energy Star, the average home can lose 20 to 30 percent of conditioned air because of holes and leaks in ductwork and due to poorly connected ducts. That can raise your monthly energy bills significantly and cause your heating and air conditioning system to stay on longer, leading to increased wear and tear and a shorter lifespan. If you place your hand between sections of your ductwork and feel air, there’s a leak.
Other signs of leaky ducts include high energy bills, dust around air vents, strange sounds coming from the ducts, uneven temperatures across your home and inadequate insulation. If you notice any of these signs, contact Ravinia Plumbing for air duct repair service.
Air Purifiers
Air purifiers are similar to air cleaners in that they trap or remove particles and bacteria from your home’s air supply; however, the way they function is a bit different. While air cleaners filter impurities in the air, air purifiers sanitize the air by emitting ultraviolet light, rendering free-floating particles such as bacteria and viruses harmless. Whole house air purifiers are ideal for people who suffer from asthma and allergies or are prone to catching a cold or flu.
Humidifiers
The air in Lincolnshire, Lake Forest and Buffalo Grove, IL, can be extremely dry, especially during the winter, which can lead to a host of health issues and can even damage wood furniture and flooring by robbing them of needed moisture. Whole house humidifiers connect directly to heating and cooling systems to provide coverage for your entire home. If your home’s humidity level is below the recommended 30 to 50% range, contact Ravinia Plumbing for a service call. We can install indoor air quality equipment in Lincolnshire IL, and the surrounding areas.
Dehumidifiers
On the other end, summers in the Chicago area can be downright miserable due to hot, muggy weather. If your indoor humidity levels soar past 50 or 60%, you may need a whole house dehumidifier installed. These units work to lower the indoor humidity level to create healthier air, lower energy costs, eliminate mold growth and protect your furniture and home.
