Breathing Easy: ECP’s Solutions for Improved Indoor Air Quality

Air Quality Challenges

Earth Contact Products strives to create quality products for its clients and partners. Therefore, air efficiency at this time of year is critical. With the changing seasons and increased precipitation in the fall months, air quality challenges in the home can become more noticeable. In fact, the air quality in your home may be suffering between allergy season, muggy crawl spaces, and wet basements. Even worse, you may begin to smell foul odors originating from mildew. We want to avoid this. Specifically, ECP and its trademark products can prevent all your air quality challenges.

Crawl Spaces and Air Quality

You may wonder how crawl spaces, basements, and air quality are connected. Well, they go hand in hand. The air quality in the lower levels rises to the higher levels in the home. So, if your air contains pollutants or toxins, those elements will stray to other areas of the house without proper ventilation or waterproofing fixes. According to the National Center for Healthy Housing, “The moisture level in the home is crucial to achieving a healthy home environment.” In fact, “too little moisture in the home can cause dryness of the nose and respiratory systems, while too much moisture in the home contributes to numerous health impacts, health hazards, and structural home damage.” In essence, understanding air quality challenges is a must.
