Air quality problems we see in Columbia

In Columbia the indoor air complaints are mostly humidity, dust and allergies. A house that holds above about 50 percent humidity feels clammy at any thermostat setting and can smell musty. Spring tree pollen and fall ragweed bring the allergy calls. Leaky return ducts in a crawl space or attic pull in dust and damp air.

We start with the system you have: filter fit and rating, blower settings, run times, the indoor coil and the ducts. Then we recommend only what the house needs, whether that is a media filter cabinet, UV at the coil, duct sealing or cleaning, or better dehumidification.

Small changes often help most: a filter that fits the slot with no gaps, a blower setting that gives the coil time to pull out moisture, and a sealed return so the system is not drawing air from the attic or crawl space.

Columbia homes and air

Many Columbia homes, especially the older ones near downtown, sit over crawl spaces. Damp crawl spaces and leaky return ducts are a direct route for musty air into the house, and the Duck River valley holds humidity on summer nights. Newer neighborhoods have their own issues with attic ducts. We handle both from our Columbia office on North Garden Street. Estimates are free, and military and senior customers get 10% off repairs.

Questions from Columbia homeowners

What humidity should my house be?

Roughly 30 to 50 percent indoors. If it feels clammy at your normal set point, it is probably higher.

Will a better filter fix my allergies?

It helps when the blower can handle it. We match the filter to the system so airflow does not drop.

Is duct cleaning worth it?

It is after renovation dust, pests or water damage. It does not fix leaky ducts, which need sealing.
