Indoor Air Quality
Indoor air quality is a significant concern for homeowners across the US. Modern homes are now built with energy efficiency in mind, meaning they're tightly sealed to prevent conditioned air from escaping or outdoor air from intruding. This is a great way to lower energy costs but has the unfortunate side-effect of creating indoor air pollution problems. At Mathis Plumbing & Heating Co., Inc., we have a variety of affordable solutions for improving indoor air quality in Upstate South Carolina and the surrounding areas.

The Importance of Indoor Air Quality
The average American spends around 90% of their time indoors, and studies show that indoor air is often much more polluted than outdoor air—sometimes, up to 200-500% more. There are several problems that poor indoor air quality can lead to, and the US Environmental Protection Agency, EPA ranks poor indoor air quality as one of the top five public health risks. Common diseases and symptoms associated with poor indoor air quality include:
- Runny, irritated, or stuffy nose
- Irritated eyes
- Hearing loss
- Nausea
- Headaches
- Muscle pain and soreness
- Coughing, phlegm, or sore throats
