Breathe Easier: How to Improve Indoor Air Quality in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs is known for its crisp mountain air—but once you shut your doors and windows, your indoor air might tell a different story.
From dry winter air to lingering smoke from wildfires, indoor air quality (IAQ) plays a major role in your comfort and health. At Advantage Heating & Cooling, we help homeowners breathe easier with custom air quality solutions that work year-round.
Here’s how to tell if your air could use an upgrade—and what you can do about it.
Why Indoor Air Quality Matters
You spend about 90% of your time indoors, and the EPA estimates that indoor air can be 2 to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air. In homes across Colorado Springs, we regularly see:
Dry air that causes nosebleeds, itchy skin, and static shocks
High levels of dust, pollen, and pet dander
Poor ventilation that traps VOCs from cleaning supplies or off-gassing materials
Bacteria, viruses, and mold spores circulating through HVAC systems
If you’ve got allergies, asthma, or just want a healthier home—air quality is worth taking seriously.
3 Ways to Improve Indoor Air Quality in Your Home
🌀 1. Whole-House Air Purification Systems
Forget plug-in purifiers that only treat a single room. A whole-house air purification system connects to your HVAC setup and cleans the air as it circulates—removing dust, allergens, bacteria, and odors across your entire home.
At Advantage, we install high-efficiency systems that tackle airborne pollutants without restricting airflow. It’s a quiet, out-of-sight solution for year-round clean air.
💧 2. Steam Humidifier Installation
Dry indoor air is a year-round problem here in Colorado Springs. Dry air doesn’t just affect your comfort—it can damage wood floors and furniture, aggravate respiratory issues, and make your home feel colder than it is.
We install whole-home steam humidifiers that maintain optimal humidity levels, helping you feel warmer in winter and more comfortable all around.
🔄 3. Proper Filter Maintenance & Upgrades
A dirty or low-quality filter means your system is blowing dust and particles back into your living space. Upgrading to a high-efficiency pleated filter, and changing it regularly, makes a big difference.
Need help choosing the right filter for your system? We’ve got you covered—and we can even include it as part of your Advantage Performance Plan.
When Should You Consider an IAQ Upgrade?
You’ve noticed more dust buildup around your home
Family members are frequently congested or experiencing allergies
There are lingering odors that don’t go away
You’ve recently remodeled or moved into a new home
Your furnace or AC is more than 10 years old
