Indoor Air Quality Awareness

PR Log (Press Release) – Apr 24, 2009 – My name is JIM COTTON. I am here to try and educate the public on the importance of INDOOR AIR QUALITY.I want to take a minute to let everyone know who visits my web site @ http://jjsdreamproducts.synthasite.com and my blog @ http://jjsdream.wordpress.com exactly what I’m doing. Honestly, the first thing I am doing is promoting my E-Book, How to Save Money on your Heating Bill. But more importantly I’m trying to raise awareness on the importance of Indoor Air Quality. I.A.Q is a very real, very big problem in our lives today. I.A.Q levels in our homes and in our places of employment are sometimes as much as 10 X worse then the outdoor air quality. Take a moment to think about this. 10 X worse. You can see what we are breathing outside but inside is a different story. Next time the sun is shining through your home go over and rub the carpet or pat the arm of your favourite recliner and you’ll see what I’m talking about. It seems to me that the only people that really care about I.A.Q are the people that are trying to sell you the mega buck purifiers, the mega buck Hepa filters, the mega buck humidifiers and on and on…I work for the largest Power-Vac Company in BC Canada and I take this issue to heart. I have helped out thousands on people on Vancouver Island, both residential and commercial solve these problems effectively with very little cost. I’m here to help you too. My E-Book deals with these problems and allows individual home owners to easily fix the problems themselves. It covers Heat Loss, Filters, Maintenance, Service and a few other ideas on how to improve I.A.Q with very little cost.
Whether you are aware of it or not, Indoor Air Pollution is a serious problem that can be  held to health and respiratory issues for you and the members of your family, if it is not properly addressed. Professional Air Duct Cleaners, such as Chinook Power-Vac (Vancouver Island) can help to rid your home of pollutants and keep the air safe for you and your family. The following is a basic guide to see if the air pollution in your home may warrant professional cleaning. If the answer to any of these questions is “yes,” it does not mean that you definitely have a problem, but simply that there is a chance you do, and you may want to talk to a professional regarding this.  Does your H.V.A.C or Air Ventilation System uses a standard fiberglass filter? If you can clearly see through your filter when held up to the light it is probably removing somewhere in the neighborhood of 6-20% of the dust and allergens in your home.  Do you have pets? Pet dander is one of the worst pollutants found in residential H.V.A.C systems. Are there smokers in your house? As with pets, smoking causing the H.V.A.C system to become contaminated far more quickly, as well as to circulate the cigarette or cigar’s pollutants throughout the house.  Does anyone in your house suffer from allergies, asthma, or any other respiratory problems? These may be caused by contaminants in your H.V.A.C system, such as mold, fungus, or simply an accumulation of dust and debris.  Do you regularly clean excessive dust accumulation from your household furniture? This is a common sign that the air duct system is not clean and is circulating dust throughout the house.  Do you experience headaches, nausea, burning sensations in the nose, throat or eyes when inside the home? These common signs of respiratory distress and may be due to contaminated duct work and indoor air pollution.  Do you have “dust trail” or discoloring coming out of your air duct register or out of the sides of your furnace or duct work? This is a sure sign that it needs to be professionally cleaned.  When you last changed your furnace filter, did you see dust and dirt inside the filter and or blower housing? Again, this is a sure sign that you should call an Air Duct Cleaning Professional .  Most if not all companies will provide a free air duct cleaning quote.
