Not only is October Indoor Air Quality Awareness Month, but it's also a time when many of us are buttoning up our homes in preparation for winter.

So, it's a great time for me and my friends at Ambient Comfort to talk about the dangers of poor indoor air quality — think airborne mold, mildew, viruses, bacteria, dust, pet dander and volatile organic compounds. These things can cause congestion, reoccurring headaches, allergy-like symptoms and dry skin, eyes and throats.

I recently learned that, according to the EPA, indoor air can have two to five times the amount of pollutants as outside air.

I personally suffer from seasonal allergies, particularly oak tree pollen, but I rely on Ambient Comfort year-round to make sure that my air filter, furnace and air conditioner are clean. They also offer HEPA air filters and air purifiers that capture particles too small for screens to grab.

The experts at Ambient Comfort can audit your home and suggest ways to improve your home's air quality, especially if someone in your household has asthma, allergies or other sensitivities.

Now's a great time to give them a call for a free home comfort analysis. Remember:

  • Temperature Comfort plus
  • Air Flow Comfort plus
  • Fresh Air Comfort plus
  • Clean Air Comfort plus
  • Humidity Comfort equals
  • AMBIENT COMFORT

Whatever system you use, I want you to know, I can tell the difference with Ambient Comfort. Cleaner interior air lessens the severity of my seasonal allergies.
