Poor indoor air quality within a commercial building can negatively affect employees’ health and well-being. While HVAC systems are relied upon to keep the air clean and safe, a malfunctioning heating or cooling system can compromise air quality, harming your employees and ultimately impacting your company’s bottom line. Here are some signs that your workplace may have poor air quality.
Coughing or Difficulty Breathing
Coughing and difficulty breathing are only two symptoms of poor indoor air quality. Toxic components frequently cause these symptoms in your environment. Dust, trash, pet hair, allergies, and other pathogens are common causes of coughing and respiratory problems. You may be at risk even if you have no history of respiratory problems. If you find breathing difficult in a commercial setting, airborne toxins may still be present.
Dry Skin Issues
Dry skin can, believe it or not, be caused by excessive levels of airborne pollution. Contaminants in the air might enter your body through your skin’s pores. As a result, dry skin can be caused by this. Keeping your HVAC system clean might help reduce your chances of developing dry skin.
Large Amounts Of Dust
High dust levels are the most obvious signs of poor indoor air quality. If you see an alarming rise in dust buildup, it could mean that dust is becoming soaked in your environment rather than filtered out by your HVAC system. Dust accumulations can be deadly for anyone suffering from eczema and asthma. Higher-efficiency HEPA filters can go a long way toward making your heating and cooling system more efficient.
