Many homeowners underestimate the importance of good air quality in their home. With so many other tasks taking their attention, it’s easy to go for long periods without realizing that there may be an unhealthy amount of bacteria in the air caused by a variety of factors.

A family member getting sick or a shocking amount of dust build-up throughout the home is often the signal to homeowners that the air quality in their home needs to change.

There are so many elements that affect a home’s air quality. Only some of these factors are directly in a homeowner’s control.

However, when it comes to improving the quality of your air, there are several useful steps that you can take according to your home’s specific needs. The experienced team of professionals at Mister Quik Home Services can provide you with the equipment and information you need to keep your home’s air healthy and clean to breathe.

Symptoms of Poor Air Quality

Not sure what signs to look out for when it comes to your home’s air? Here are some of the major symptoms of poor air quality in a home:

• Excessive build-up of dust and grime throughout the house
• Cold-like symptoms or dry skin
• Headaches
• Nausea, fatigue, or dizziness
• Hot and cold spots throughout the house
• Strange or unpleasant smells

As you can see, poor air quality indoors can have drastic effects on the health and comfort of the occupants of your home. However, there are many factors that affect the air quality in a home, which is why we provide several distinct options for air quality treatment.

HEPA Filters and Air Purifiers

Airborne pollutants are present everywhere, especially in densely populated city areas. But you shouldn’t have to worry about these pollutants remaining in your home after they are cycled in from the outside by your doors, windows, or HVAC system. To remove these pollutants from your home’s air, we suggest installing a HEPA filter.

HEPA filters (high-efficiency particulate air filters) are designed with a mesh filter that pulls your home’s air in and traps any particles, including smog, dander from pets, pollen, dust mites, and cigarette or cigar smoke.

These filters are usually built into larger air purifiers, which come in a variety of sizes, depending on your home’s needs. They work around the clock to decrease the volume of pollutants in your air.

Humidity Control

Some of the most common symptoms of poor air quality are caused by the level of humidity within a home. If you are dealing with dry skin, sore throats in the morning, nose bleeds, or even an apparent increase in the static electricity in your home, you may be in need of a humidifier.

Mister Quik Home Services proudly installs the Aprilaire 800 Steam Humidifier for our community members that have been particularly affected by the unpredictable Indianapolis weather.

This machine can be installed out of sight near your HVAC system. It works with a dual sensor and offers a 24/7 auto mode, so you’ll never have to worry about turning it on or fiddling with buttons to make it work.

In some cases, homeowners have the opposite problem, experiencing an excess amount of humidity in their home, making their air feel heavy, sticky, and uncomfortable. Indiana summers can be humid enough without taking the feeling indoors!

For this issue, our team can install the Aprilaire 1830 Model Dehumidifier to prevent the growth of mildew and mold, avoid damage to humidity-sensitive items in your home, and improve the overall quality and feel of your home’s air.

UV Lights

UV air purifiers are a state-of-the-art method for air pollutant removal. They can kill around 99% of all bacteria, viruses, and mold. The helpful technicians at Mister Quik Home Services can install a UV light into your duct system, where the majority of the average home’s air pollution comes from.

The installation of this device only takes a few hours, but you’ll notice the difference in your air quality immediately. Plus, it’s completely safe for use and is certified to be ozone and mercury-free.

Mini Split Installation

Mini splits are a popular HVAC alternative when you want to heat and cool individual spaces or rooms, rather than the entire home. If you prefer to only use your HVAC system during Indiana’s hottest and coldest months, a mini-split can allow you to control the temperature in individual zones while using less electricity and power. 

Mister Quik Home Services offers high-quality mini split installation. Our systems require very little upkeep from you as the homeowner. Best of all, all of our installation services are covered with a five-year warranty under our SHAPE maintenance plan.
