The\nbest place to start is with\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Air Quality Testing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where to begin if you\u2019re looking to pinpoint the source of your indoor air quality issues. Air quality testing is best when performed by a professional. One of our IAQ technicians can come out to your home and calculate a specific test to determine the source of your air quality needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you do this, you should consider the following IAQ services:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Air Filtration Systems and Air Purifiers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Air filters and air purifiers are two of the best-known ways\nto handle your IAQ needs. Sometimes, your home is better suited for UV air\npurification or an air filter. The best way to determine this is with an air\nquality test. Once we determine what your needs are, we\u2019re going to make sure\nthat you have the best work around. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Humidifiers and Dehumidifiers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your home needs to have the right humidity balance. You want\nyour humidity to land anywhere around 30% to 50%. If your humidity is below\nthis, you\u2019re going to notice your home feeling cold and your body feeling dry. If\nyour home is too humid, you\u2019re going to notice problems with mold or your\ncomfort. Don\u2019t settle for either. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ductwork<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your ductwork is dirty, gapping, or even just a worn down, you\u2019re going to notice that you\u2019re not as comfortable as you could be. In fact, you\u2019re probably going to notice that you\u2019re paying more for your HVAC services although you\u2019re not as comfortable as you once were. This is why you need great ductwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Heat and Energy Recovery Ventilators <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>HRV and ERV systems are excellent when you\u2019re attempting to ventilate your home during the height of heating or cooling season. Although these systems are best during these seasons, they\u2019re useful during the in-between seasons of spring and fall too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"\/contact\/schedule-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Contact Kennihan Plumbing &amp; Heating, Inc. for your indoor air quality services this season.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s time to improve your IAQ.
