Indoor Air Quality Viriginia:
From start to Finish near you

Indoor air quality is vitally important. Experts say one of the top five environmental dangers is the air we breathe 90% of the time in our homes. Pollen, dust, mold spores, fungi spores, tobacco smoke, dust mites, pet hair and pet dander contaminate indoor air. An alarming increase in asthma in children is being associated with the air they breathe at home.

Indoor air pollution:
Top five dangers in your ducts
 

Mold

The materials that insulate some ductwork can act as a sponge and absorb moisture from; humid air, condensation in the ducts, or from an undiscovered water leak. This is an ideal condition for the development of a mold colony. As the air circulates throughout the ductwork of your home or business, the air spreads these indoor air quality hazards. Mold and germs from moisture in ductwork is a serious health hazard for the elderly, infants, and people with respiratory illness.

House dust

House dust is the fiber from drapes, furniture and clothing. Organic debris, primarily skin cells make up another major component since humans shed at a rate of 700,000 cells per day. Pets shed dander. Humans and animal lose hair. All of this collects in ducts, only to be blown around again when the heating or cooling system turns on. Let us rid your ducts from allergenic dust. Your ducts – and your house will be cleaner. Your indoor air quality improves markedly.

Dust mites

Dust mites feed on the dead skin shed by humans and pets. They are microscopic, and live in the cleanest homes because it only takes is an ounce of dust to sustain 40,000 dust mites! Dust mites produce feces, and that is what blows around your home. Breathable dust mite feces can be eliminated with professional air duct cleaning.

Toxic fumes

Chemicals are leaching out of modern building materials such as paint and particle board, creating a very serious threat to indoor air quality. Your furniture, drapes and carpet also give off gas long after that new smell fades. Common household products contain chemicals. Such home indoor air contaminants collect in ducts and are re-circulated.

Viruses and bacteria

The same environment that is an excellent incubator for dust mites can harbor viruses and bacteria guests bring into your home and bacteria children bring home from school. Air-borne illnesses travel with the hot or cold air from your system. As you can imagine, the impact on indoor air quality is significant.

I recently had to replace my HVAC, and Comfort Solutions was great! I've used them before and they really know their stuff. They explained the problem to me and also to my insurance company; they are very familiar with condo HVAC units and helped me pick the right replacement unit for my space and my needs. They got the unit quickly (and kept me up-to-date on its arrival) and sent three techs for the day-long installation. The guys were great: efficient, knowledgeable, and polite. They explained everything to me as they worked, and were patient with all my questions. They were super careful working in my condo and on the roof, and ran lots of tests afterwards to make sure everything was working properly. Everyone at Comfort worked to make the whole experience as stress-free as possible for me, and I appreciate it. I highly recommend Comfort Solutions.

These folks are the best! The techs are all very knowledgeable (especially about the speciality HVAC units in my condo building), and both the techs and office/owner were great about answering all my questions. In talking through a new problem that arose following service of my HVAC unit, they suggested duct cleaning, and sent a great team to do the cleaning... that team found stuff in my ducts from a previous owner's renovations that would have been a real health hazard if we'd let it sit there. They listen and work with you to figure out what you need. They consistently get me on their schedule quickly and stay in touch about the tech's arrival, and they check in afterwards to make sure everything went well. Like many of these reviews, I've had a great experience with Comfort Solutions and highly recommend them!

I had another HVAC company come out to my grandmothers house to find out what the issue was, but they would not service the unit in her attic since their was a tight gap to fit through. They were the same company that installed the unit 6 years earlier and now they wouldn’t service it. I called Comfort Solutions and they had me send pictures of the space before sending a technician out and waste my money. They called me back within hours and told me they could do it and have someone out by the end of the week. They arrived on time and found the issue within 5 minutes of getting to the unit. They fixed the motor under warranty and had the AC unit fixed as soon as the part arrived. The technician Brent was very knowledgeable and professional. He walked me through the issue and also showed me some maintenance issues I can fix myself. He was here for 30 minutes and I felt more confident in them than any HVAC technician I’ve worked with. Would highly recommend.

Suggested by a work colleague for superior customer service and dependability ... not disappointed! During a busy time for HVAC companies and a recent rip-off quote from a competitor, Rich from Comfort Solutions not only took time to explain the company's transparency policy, but was able to dispatch a service technician to my home within about an hour!!! Jainer the technician was excellent! Jainer was prompt, friendly, and honest about the system and service charges (including an extra cost if the visit took over 30 minutes, which he did his best to prevent). He provided comparison costs for a replacement part and contacted his boss for a system upgrade quote. Rich provided SIX side by side quotes that beat the competing company! I was floored by the speed, efficiency, and efficacy of the whole experience! I wish we had known about Comfort Solutions from the moment our AC went kaput ... they would have saved a lot of headache and hot/humid nights. We plan to accept their estimates for a new system install and will likely take one of their maintenance contracts! ... Ahem, if you're reading this Comfort Solutions, how about a glowing discount for a glowing review? JK, this company rocks and this review is well deserved! I have been disappointed by many companies in the past, but I find CS (at least Rich and Jainer) to be upfront, honest, and trustworthy. I am passing my coworker's recommendation forward: Comfort Solutions is a good bet for customer service, responsiveness, transparency, attention-to-detail, and whatever your HVAC needs.

They have been incredibly responsive, and were able to get a service appointment in a few day's time. They even called the day before to bump our time a little earlier, which was a nice gesture. The techs (Aaron and someone else) were great. They arrived early and were very thorough, giving us an honest assessment and multiple options. Would highly recommend.

Jainer was very professional and took the time to explain the steps he was taking to service our A/C unit and look at an issue we were having with our gas fireplace. He took great care with his work and our fireplace issue was resolved!

Government environmental experts find indoor air is actually five times more polluted than outside air.

 

    • Modern homes are sealed and well-insulated, which locks in household pollutants, allergens and dust. This causes health problems because blowing air is constantly circulating these unsafe organisms into the rooms of your house.
    • Our indoor air quality specialists utilize professional air duct cleaning to eliminate dangers and irritants in your ductwork. Simply give us a call to schedule your free assessment. We’ll inform you of the extent of the problem and the healthful results you can expect from the solution. We also check other components of your system in search of additional threats. We can advise you on permanent solutions.

    • Our industry has established standards for air duct cleaning. We use specialized tools to dislodge dirt and other debris in ducts and use high-powered suction to clear it out.

DOES THE REFRIGERANT PIPING NEED TO BE CHANGED IF I INSTALL A NEW AIR CONDITIONER?

All air conditioning equipment has product data documentation provided by the manufacturer indicating the approved refrigerant pipe sizes for the air conditioner you purchased.
