Speaking of Winning: Thank You, Detroit Lions
Congratulations to the Detroit Lions on a historic season! While it ended sooner than we had hoped, this season has been unforgettable, and an exciting time for fans who bleed Honolulu blue. We have a new sense of “pride” for the home team, and can’t wait to see how we can build upon this success next season.
Since the Lions’ den, Ford Field, is a dome stadium, we got to thinking about indoor air quality (IAQ) and how important it is to everyone, not just those lucky enough to be catching the game live. Did you know that indoor air quality can actually be worse than outdoor air quality? Sadly, this is a true statement. And since your home is where you spend most of your time, it’s crucial to do everything you can to improve what you’re breathing in. As experts in indoor air quality, Matheson is your trusted partner in ensuring your home’s air is as pure and safe as can be for you and your family. So, rest assured and breathe easy!
Be an IAQ Overachiever!
As you may know, indoor air quality is already somewhat regulated by your heating and cooling systems and their built-in filtration. However, that’s really the bare minimum of what you should be doing. Improving your IAQ can help with everything from allergies to dry skin to stopping viruses in their tracks. Here are some important ways to improve your home’s air quality:
- Pure & simple. Air purifiers are your best defense for filtering out a whole host of unwanted pollutants, including pollen, mold and mildew, dust mites, bacteria, pet dander and more. If you have allergies or asthma and are experiencing an increase in symptoms, it may be time to get serious about an air purifier. Various air purification systems include UV light air purifiers, ionic air purifiers and absorbent purifiers. The Matheson team will help you decide the best choice of purifier for your home.
- Dry run. How’s your skin feeling? If the answer is dry, chapped and itchy, the culprit could be a lack of humidity. Michigan’s brutal winters are no match for indoor humidity levels, and low humidity can cause everything from the aforementioned dry skin to dry nasal passages and eyes to chapped and cracked lips to an increased spread of viruses and bacteria. And here’s another not-so-fun fact: When indoor humidity is at low levels, you actually feel colder than the temperature reflects. This can cause you to reach for the thermostat, costing you extra money. Matheson can advise on how to best balance your home’s humidity levels!
- Get in the routine. Regular maintenance for your HVAC system is a great step toward improving your IAQ, and routine system tune-ups will help everything run more efficiently. Matheson offers an HVAC Service Agreement Plan that makes routine maintenance a breeze.
