When Something's in the Air, it's Not Always Something Good
A home is many things. Among them are favorite odors. Your favorite meal is on the stove as you walk through the front door. Fresh cut flowers on the dining room table. A romantic evening enhanced by scented candles. No doubt about it: the air inside your home can make it infinitely more inviting.
That’s the good news. Here’s the other side of the story.
- According to the EPA, indoor air is 2 to 10 times more polluted than outdoor air.
- Polluted indoor air has become one of, if not the leading, health problems in our country.
- The American College of Allergy reports that 50% of all illnesses are aggravated or caused by polluted indoor air.
- According to Scientific American, a baby inhales the equivalent of 4 cigarettes a day simply from crawling on the floor.
- Allergies, asthma, and other respiratory ailments can be caused or certainly aggravated by indoor pollutants.
- Children and the elderly are especially susceptible to allergy causing airborne contaminants.

It’s Time to Focus on Some Very Effective Solutions
There are countless ways to improve the quality of your indoor air. Here are a few that we offer at Comfort Air.
Ultraviolet (UV) Lamps
To say that we are inclined to keep our windows closed for long periods at a time here in Palm Springs is nothing short of a major understatement.
In the process, however, all kinds of pollutants get trapped indoors, others are brought in from outdoors (especially on your shoes) and, the better sealed your home, the more likely these pollutants are to get trapped, with nowhere else to go.
But the problem doesn’t end there as your central air or heating systems then circulate the air around your home, pollutants and all.
