INDOOR AIR QUALITY IN SAN ANTONIO, TX

bluefrog is dedicated to providing premium indoor air quality services to anyone in the San Antonio, TX area. Your overall health and safety are our top priority. We employ well-trained and fully-experienced technicians who will test your indoor air quality for a variety of pollutants. Our professional air quality evaluation is superior to at-home testing kits as we do not allow room for errors in collecting samples or inaccuracy in interpreting the data results. Further, our air quality testing looks for a wide range of potential contaminants including:

• Biological: Biological indoor air pollutants naturally occur inside homes. They include bacteria and viruses, dander, dust, mildew, mold, and common allergens such as pollen or pet hair. Although it is common for all houses to maintain certain levels of these, large quantities can affect your health in negative ways. Even if you maintain a spotless, clean home, build-ups of biological contaminants can still occur, and you may need to employ indoor air quality services in order to help clean or purify your indoor air.
• VOCS: Volatile organic compounds are chemical gasses that can arise from a number of common household materials, products, and supplies that are used to construct, decorate, or clean your home. There are many VOCS, the most well-known include benzene, formaldehyde, lead, methylene chloride, and radon. As VOCs can be extremely dangerous, and lead to serious health consequences, it is best to verify that they do not exist in your home. If low levels are detected, a proper air cleaning or purification system may be recommended by our team.
• Combustion: Combustion pollutants are matter or gasses that are created from burning fuels inside your home. The most common causes are smoking cigarettes, and wood-burning or kerosene stoves. Combustion contaminants such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and formaldehyde can build up quickly and lead to dangerous or fatal conditions if not recognized in time. Our indoor air quality services are conducted by seasoned pros who can evaluate your indoor air and set up proper air ventilation and purification systems such that it doesn’t reach that point.

Ways to Improve Air Quality

Many of these indoor air particles and gasses can result in serious or severe health conditions, even in low concentrations. Since it can be difficult to detect the types or levels of pollutants yourself, it is important to call our qualified and licensed bluefrog team. We will provide exceptional indoor air quality services for customers in San Antonio, TX. We will not only test your indoor air but also find the sources of potentially dangerous problems and install an indoor quality system that works to remedy the presented issues. There are multiple ways that we accomplish these tasks including:

• Source Control: Source control is your first line of defense against harmful build-ups of particles, compounds, and gasses. Our team will evaluate and determine the types of contaminants in your home’s air, and then conduct a thorough investigation to find the sources of health hazards such as black mold, asbestos, or radon.
• Ventilation: Although opening windows and employing the use of fans regularly can certainly increase the air circulation inside of your home, ventilation systems do the job for you on a continuous basis. In this way, they are the most effective way to ventilate your home’s air. They bring in fresh air from outdoors, filter the air in order to remove pollutants, and remove old, stale and contained air by emptying it outside.
• Air Cleaners and Air Purifiers: Air cleaners and air purifiers are excellent options for cleaning your indoor air. There are small, portable options for rooms or apartments, or there are larger units made to install in HVAC systems for total home cleaning. Although sometimes the terms are used interchangeably, air cleaners are best at removing large particles from the air like pet hair and air purifiers have the ability to catch smaller particles and additionally, sanitize the air from bacteria and viruses.
• Humidifiers and Dehumidifiers: It is the case that moisture or lack thereof can affect your indoor air quality. Humidifiers work by delivering warm or cold vapor into your air, which can be beneficial for anyone who suffers from chronic congestion or respiratory problems. On the other hand, dehumidifiers pull moisture from the air in order to reduce the overall humidity level. This can decrease the chance of indoor pollutants such as mold or mildew.

Indoor Air Quality Maintenance and Repair

At bluefrog, we can provide ongoing indoor air quality services including routine maintenance, air quality system repair and replacement, and emergency repair and replacement. Typically, if your system has been installed in an HVAC system, maintenance can be conducted at the same time you would regularly have professional maintenance performed. Although, it is important to keep in mind that your air cleaner or air purifier may need to have its filter changed more frequently, depending on the type that is used.

Our thorough maintenance work involves a complete inspection of your system, cleaning and lubricating the parts, changing filters, and ensuring that the air is flowing optimally. We will also conduct further indoor air quality testing in order to ensure your system is functioning properly. At our maintenance, visits we can detect if any necessary repairs should be made while there. Indeed, we are always available for further indoor air quality services such as repair and replacement.
