Indoor air quality (IAQ) is more important than you may realize. Homeowners should make it a goal to avoid poor IAQ as much as possible. There are many practical reasons, such as the three below, that make it worthwhile to improve your IAQ in your Johns Creek, GA, home.
1. You’ll Sleep Better
Breathing in pollutants can lead to feeling uncomfortable in your space. For instance, you may feel like you can’t breathe properly or that the air feels thick and humid, which can make it harder to sleep. Even if you’re able to fall asleep, you might toss and turn or wake up earlier than intended.
By taking steps to improve your IAQ, you remove potential irritants that are stopping you from getting a good night’s rest. In turn, that can help improve your mood and concentration, among other things.
2. You’ll Spend Less Time Dusting
If you have poor IAQ at home, you might notice more pollutants like pollen and dust maneuvering throughout your space. You may have to dust more frequently and regularly deep clean to ensure that your surfaces are clean. Fortunately, taking steps to improve IAQ means you may be able to dust less due to fewer pollutants in the air.
3. You’ll Face Fewer Potential Health Issues
In the short term, poor IAQ can irritate your respiratory system, causing an itchy throat, runny nose or hoarse voice. Long-term exposure to low-quality air has some links to major health issues as well, including lung cancer and asthma. If you already have asthma, allergies or similar respiratory conditions, low-quality air can worsen these symptoms.
