It is very likely that at one time or another you have wondered about your indoor air quality.
We are constantly being bombarded with information and statistics
from a variety of places ranging from legitimate sources like the EPA
website to misinformation deliberately put out there by unscrupulous
companies trying to scare you into buying unnecessary equipment or
services. For example, there are companies that prey on the
unsuspecting consumer by operating duct cleaning or duct sanitization
scams intended only to get a salesman into your home to sell you
services or equipment you probably don’t need.
Sean McCutcheon’s Air Conditioning and Heating, Inc. of Sarasota
understands that sometimes it’s very hard to separate the truth from the
fiction so we painstakingly research all new technology so that we can
educate our customers, and we only recommend products that we genuinely
believe in so that we can help you make the best possible choice.

We
live in a world where Volatile Organic Compounds or VOCs as they are
commonly known are less prevalent, cigarette smoking is becoming
increasingly unacceptable and Americans, for the most part, are trying
to live a healthier lifestyle, but we are still exposed to plenty of
unstable environments and toxic substances that can adversely affect our
health on a daily basis. It is a fact that indoor air can have higher
levels of pollutants than outdoor air.
In our warm Florida climate, most people will keep windows and doors
shut tightly while they run the air conditioning units for months at a
time. If there is not enough outdoor air entering a home, pollutants can
accumulate to hazardous levels.
These pollutants can come from
anywhere; some more obvious sources include pesticides, paints and
cleaning products, but indoor air pollutants can also come from
furniture, floor coverings or even certain types of pressed wood used
for cabinets. In addition to these indoor air pollutants that can
accumulate in your home, improperly maintained air conditioning and
heating units can create the perfect breeding ground for airborne
microorganisms and bacteria. HVAC systems can circulate these viruses
and germs around an entire home or office building in a relatively short
amount of time.
