Summer is underway, and keeping your home cool and comfortable is a top priority. The air conditioner is likely being used quite a bit, which can be contributing to low humidity in the home. We know what you're thinking, “Summer days are SO hot and sticky already, why would I need even more humidity?”

Mold can be found outdoors and indoors. And it doesn't really become a problem inside until there's a water problem, such as a plumbing leak, rainwater leak or very high indoor humidity levels.

No matter where you live, what you do for a living, or whom you surround yourself with, you're certain to run into Germs, and other microorganisms every single day.

Who doesn't love the way luxuriant plants brighten a home or office? But what about indoor plants for air quality improvement? Is this natural method of air purification effective? Are they any more or less effective than an air purifier for the home? 

Indoor asthma triggers are the contaminants that can set off asthmatic reactions in people who have asthma or breathing problems. According to information from The American Lung Association, it is estimated that 24.6 million Americans have asthma. Typical asthma triggers found in the home relate to dust mites, mold, pet dander, tobacco smoke and combustion appliances. There are many ways to help reduce exposure to these triggers and the first step is the elimination of pollutants if possible.

When you're short of breath, it's hard or uncomfortable for you to take in the oxygen your body needs. You may feel as if you're not getting enough air. Sometimes mild breathing problems are from a stuffy nose or hard exercise. But shortness of breath can also be a sign of a serious disease.

Asthma is a chronic disease that affects your airways. Your airways are tubes that carry air in and out of your lungs. If you have asthma, the inside walls of your airways become sore and swollen. That makes them very sensitive, and they may react strongly to things that you are allergic to or find irritating. When your airways react, they get narrower and your lungs get less air.

Are you concerned about your indoor air quality? You're not alone! Each year, millions of people consider purchasing an air purifier when they realize the health problems that can arise due to poor indoor air quality.
