When winter arrives in Omaha, the weather gets really cold. And that’s the way it stays for quite a few months. Since the weather outside can be so challenging, it’s nice to know that you have a great home where your entire family can remain comfortable.
It’s fairly common for people to have at least one stretch during the winter when they don’t feel their best. Even if they aren’t fully sick, they may experience some unpleasant symptoms like ongoing headaches or a scratchy throat. Because the outdoor elements can be so harsh, those types of symptoms are often blamed on the cold.
While the weather can definitely play a role in how people feel, one of the most common culprits behind issues like scratchy throats is commonly overlooked. That culprit is indoor air quality. Although people go to their Omaha homes for protection from the cold outside, it can actually be the inside of homes that create the problems people are trying to avoid.
Understanding Indoor Air Quality
Mold, germs and other unpleasant debris are consistently present in the air. In an outside environment, the wind takes care of circulating these things away. But inside a home or other enclosed space, ventilation isn’t always as effective.
Even though homes are designed to pull in fresh air and circulate the old out, that doesn’t mean 100% of unwanted air pollutants get removed. The reality of ventilation systems is some types of debris will get stuck. Over time, what’s stuck can accumulate into a lot. This process can also be accelerated by factors like families spending more time inside during the winter.
If vents get contaminated enough, the negative impact on indoor air quality can begin creating noticeable effects. Specifically, the members of a household may get sick more frequently. Another common sign of an air duct problem is that air starts smelling bad.
