One of the most overlooked areas of your indoor comfort is your Burbank, CA, air quality, which can be affected by indoor allergens. Even though you can’t see it, your indoor air quality greatly contributes to the overall comfort and safety you experience in your Burbank residence. With the help of the team at Air Max HVAC, you can identify areas of your air quality that are lacking, and bring the right solution into your home. We’ll assist you with our high quality services and products to bring true comfort and safer, more breathable air into your home!

Improving Circulation

Today’s Burbank homes are typically well sealed and insulated. They are also often highly energy efficient, but poor airflow could cause uncomfortable air conditions inside as the same air is continuously re-circulated throughout your home. This recirculation can throw off your home’s humidity balance and even cause damage from mold. Don’t worry, though, because Air Max HVAC in Burbank can help you have an energy-efficient home that is also comfortable!

Reduce health-threatening pollutants and make your home as comfortable as possible by making sure you have a constant flow of fresh air. You could open windows, but that only works in fair weather. Also, open windows can usher more allergens into your home. So what is the answer? A whole home ventilation system pulls fresh outside air in with your conditioned air.

Burbank Humidity Control for Greater Comfort and Health

We recommend keeping your home’s relative humidity levels between 30% and 60% for your best comfort and health. Watch out for these signs that your home is too humid:

Regularly damp areas
Musty odors
Condensation stains on the ceiling
Condensation or frost on windows
Sticky or clammy feeling in the air
Peeling wallpaper
You have to operate your air conditioner more often to get comfortable
You can also run into problems with your health and home when the air is too dry. During winter months, indoor relative humidity can be as dry as some of the world’s harshest deserts.

If you have any of these symptoms, the humidity in your home could be too low:

Frequent allergies or respiratory illnesses
Scratchy, sore throat or excessive cough
Dry, irritated nasal passages
Dry, itchy skin
Chapped lips
Static shocks
Cracked, peeling wallpaper
Warped or cracked wood
Damage to household furnishings

Allergies and Other Health Problems in Burbank and the Surrounding Areas

Is your Burbank home healthy? There’s a real chance it’s not as healthy as you think. Invisible particles and chemicals carried through your home’s air may cause headaches and allergy flare-ups. Mold and mildew can also cause a host of health concerns. Our team knows just what to do to help you clean your air and make your home a safer, more comfortable place to live. We can install quality air purification and filtration systems to address a wide variety of airborne pollutants ranging from VOCs, viruses like the cold and flu, dust, pet dander, mold spores, and more.

How to Prevent Indoor Air Quality Problems

Maintaining healthy indoor air is easier than you might think. Here are some key tips:

  • Test for radon: Radon is a leading cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers. Visit EPA.gov for testing information and free or discounted kits.

  • Install carbon monoxide alarms near all sleeping areas.

  • Keep your home smoke-free to reduce harmful pollutants.

  • Reduce dust mites: Regular cleaning helps, and a whole-home air filtration system with a MERV 16 filter can capture the finest particles.

  • Vent gas-burning appliances to the outdoors.

  • Avoid masking odors: Use scented candles or sprays sparingly; address the source of odors instead.

  • Use low- or no-VOC products for paints, cleaners, and hobbies to reduce harmful chemicals.

  • Control humidity: Keep levels under 50% with a humidifier or dehumidifier to prevent mold and mildew.

  • Seal leaks and cracks to prevent moisture and contaminants.

  • Ensure proper ventilation so stale indoor air is replaced with fresh outdoor air.

Regular HVAC inspections and maintenance also help reduce contaminants and improve air quality. For a thorough assessment, schedule an indoor air quality audit with our team to identify areas we can help improve.
