According to research, air quality in most homes is in need of drastic improvement. In fact, it is a leading trigger of Asthma, allergies, headaches and illness among children and adults. Learn how to identify common culprits and improve the air quality in your home with these quick easy steps.

1. Kids & Critters. We all love our four legged friends but they can be a major source of dirt, dander and even pollen. Children are notorious for touching everything inside and outside of the home no matter how many times you remind them to wipe their feet and wash their hands. Remember, once it enters your home chances are it spreads everywhere!

2. Furniture & Flooring. Carpeting, your favorite chair, the family sofa and even your mattress capture dust, small debris and even old skin from every living creature in the home. Years of accumulation create an organic feeding ground for microscopic creatures like dust mites.

3. Mold & Mildew. The humidity in the south can really wreak havoc on Atlanta homes even if you don't experience a flood. Small spores can accumulate to create mold and mildew problems throughout the home.
How to Fix it!
Fortunately you don't need to learn to live with it! Air quality can be improved by implementing a few common sense steps.
1. Keep it Clean. Day to day maintenance and cleaning should include a dusting and mopping as well as vacuuming with a HEPA filter.

2. Scheduled Cleaning. At least once every 2 to 3 years make it a priority to have an Atlanta air duct cleaning company come to your home for a full service cleaning of all the vents and air system. It is also a good idea to have your carpets and upholstery professionally cleaned at the same time so it doesn't cross contaminate the home.

3. Go Green. Use only non-toxic cleaners and chemicals. Chemicals build up over time and can create a toxic environment in your home. Avoid harsh detergents, toxic pest control products (indoors and outdoors) and pesticides.

When it comes to hiring an Atlanta air duct cleaning company, make sure the job is done right by searching for a company like Kiwi Services who uses only environmentally friendly products and can take care of your Atlanta carpet and upholstery cleaning needs at the same time. Not only is it convenient to have the entire home professionally cleaned with just one call but by having all work performed at the same time, you can rest assured the whole house is as clean and fresh as possible.
