Indoor air quality is extremely important, but it is often overlooked. Most people throughout Toronto and all of Canada don’t actually pay much attention to their indoor air quality. However, if you have a tendency to sneeze a lot, cough often, or get sick quite frequently, it may not be related to your job, where you go, or other aspects of your life. It could very well be directly related to the quality of your air inside your home.
During winter, indoor air quality usually drops significantly. That’s because we often keep windows and doors closed as a way to keep out the cold air and cut down on our heating expenses. When the air is not getting recirculated, the quality diminishes frequently.
How do we reboot the indoor air quality?
The best way to reboot that indoor air quality is either opening the windows and using fans to bring in fresh air, which is not practical or feasible during the winter, or hiring a professional cleaning service.
A professional cleaning service will have the tools, knowledge, and ability to completely clean your house from top to bottom. That includes professionally cleaning your carpeting, getting all of the dust up from furniture, cleaning off the ceiling fans, cleaning drapes, furniture, and anything else that could collect dust, debris, dirt, and even allergens.
Believe it or not, your vacuuming is only getting a fraction of these allergens and dust particles up. When they settle back down and somebody walks into the room, sits down, or opens a window, those allergens and other dust particles are flying through the air, lowering your indoor air quality.
Hiring a professional cleaning service to come into your home once a month during the winter is a highly effective way to reduce allergies and other health ailments because it will also be getting out bacteria, germs, and other allergens that could be affecting you, even if you didn’t realize it before.
