Did you know that?
You may not know it yet, but the air in your home can be worse than the quality of the air outside, because in some cases it can have a concentration of pollutants 2 to 5 times higher than the air outside. As we all know, indoor air pollution can lead to a host of health problems if left unchecked, which is why we’re keen to warn you about the influence of having good insulation in your home.
Proper insulation prevents the appearance of mold
You probably already know that proper insulation helps regulate the temperature in your home, but one of its most important functions is to maintain air quality.
Ensuring good insulation prevents air leaks, which can reduce various problems, such as reducing your home’s ability to retain heat and preventing excess moisture from entering, which can result in an outbreak of mold if left unchecked, so especially around critical points, such as heat pump systems and water heaters, insulation can help keep the temperature below those levels suitable for mold.
HVAC system
Another benefit of good insulation is that it makes it easier for the HVAC system to completely filter out airborne particles, such as dust and spores, and when this doesn’t happen it can make you feel like you’re breathing heavy, uncomfortable air.
That’s why the key to good air quality at home is to trust certified insulation professionals to diagnose any problems with your current insulation, recommend the type of insulation that will best meet your specific needs and install it correctly and properly.
