Indoor Air Quality Services in Vancouver, WA
Air Quality Evaluation & Improvement
Here at Comfort 360, we know that indoor air quality is vital to our customers. Homeowners want their homes to be safe, comfortable, and free of irritants. Unfortunately, your home can trap environmental hazards like allergens, pollutants, gases, and chemicals. Our team of heating and cooling professionals is proud to work with Washington and Oregon homeowners to assess and improve their homes' air quality.
We begin by performing a thorough duct cleaning, removing any dirt, dust mites, mold spores, and more from your home's ductwork. We will then examine any air filters you have installed in your HVAC system. Often, these require cleaning or replacement. We can look at UV products, fresh air options, and ionizers to help further improve the air quality in your home.
Let us help you breathe easier and enjoy a healthier living space with our tailored solutions for improving indoor air quality.
Signs of Poor Indoor Air Quality
Several indicators might suggest the presence of poor air quality in your home.
Be on the lookout for the following signs of poor indoor air quality:
- Frequent health symptoms: The most immediate signs of poor air quality are often health-related. Symptoms can include frequent headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and skin. If these symptoms seem to abate when you're outside your home, the culprit may be indoor air pollutants.
- Unpleasant odors: Persistent musty or stale smells can signal the presence of mold, mildew, or an accumulation of pollutants that aren't being adequately ventilated.
- Humidity issues: Excessively high or low humidity can not only make a home feel uncomfortable but can also diminish the quality of your home's air. High humidity can foster mold growth, while low humidity can irritate the respiratory tract.
- Age and condition of the HVAC system: An old or poorly maintained heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system might not efficiently filter out pollutants from the air.

Our IAQ Services
Performance Testing
Homeowners and home builders want to ensure that the HVAC system installed is going to be efficient and effective. Not only can an efficient system lower utility bills, but it also improves the EPS score – providing additional money-saving opportunities.
At Comfort 360, we provide a "whole house" approach to home performance testing. In this approach, we evaluate your home's ductwork, heating & cooling system, thermostat, and insulation. We find out if your ducts are leaking—effectively heating or cooling your crawl space rather than your home—and provide additional efficiency information.
Finally, after testing is complete, our team is happy to fix the issues discovered to ensure a more efficient home.
Duct & Vent Cleaning
Comfort 360 provides customers with a complete duct and dryer vent cleaning, reducing particulates and debris from your ducts. Cleaning ductwork is essential for many reasons. It can improve air quality, reduce the risk of fire, and prevent mold growth.
You should get your ducts cleaned if:
- It's been over three years since your last cleaning.
- Your home was near a major fire.
- Mold was found during regular maintenance of your heating or cooling system.
- Rodents or insects are known to be in the home.
- You have recently remodeled your home.
- You have just purchased a home.
Tips for Improving Indoor Air Quality
Improving the indoor air quality in your home is crucial for the health and comfort of you and your family.
Here is a list of tips for improving the quality of your home's air:
- Increase ventilation: Open windows and doors when the weather permits fresh air to circulate throughout your home. Consider using exhaust fans in the kitchen and bathrooms to help remove pollutants.
- Regularly replace air filters: Make sure to replace the air filters in your HVAC system according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Clean filters are more effective at trapping pollutants.
- Use air-purifying plants: Some indoor plants can naturally purify the air by absorbing toxins such as formaldehyde, benzene, and trichloroethylene. Spider plants, snake plants, and peace lilies are good options.
- Maintain humidity levels: Keeping your home's humidity levels between 30% and 50% can help reduce the proliferation of mold and dust mites. Using dehumidifiers and humidifiers can assist in managing humidity.
- Reduce chemical pollutants: Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, aerosol sprays, and air fresheners that can release VOCs into your indoor environment. Opt for natural or homemade cleaning solutions instead.
- Frequent dusting and vacuuming: Regular cleaning can significantly reduce the presence of dust, pet dander, and other allergens in your home. Use a vacuum with a HEPA filter for the best results.
- Call Comfort 360: For a comprehensive evaluation of your home's air quality and tailored solutions to improve it, don't hesitate to call Comfort 360. Our experts are dedicated to ensuring your indoor environment is healthy and comfortable.
By implementing these tips, you can significantly improve the quality of the air inside your home, making it a safer and more pleasant environment for everyone.
