Breathe Easy with Service Minds One Hour – Indoor Air Quality Orlando, FL
Service Minds One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning doesn’t just want to keep your loved ones comfortable. We want to make sure they are safe and healthy, as well. That means not only keeping the Indoor Air Quality of Orlando, FL inside your house at the right temperature but also keeping it breathable and free of contaminants.
Poor indoor air quality can lead to a range of health issues, from causing headaches and triggering allergic reactions complicating asthma and other breathing difficulties, especially among children and the elderly. Pollen, tobacco smoke, pet dander, and compounds commonly found in cleaning supplies and other household items can easily find their way into your home’s air, and directly into your family’s lungs.
Just as consequential, the moisture content of the air inside your home must be kept within a certain range – typically 30% to 50%. It must be dry enough to forestall mold and mildew growth that can cause respiratory irritation and damage to the home’s infrastructure. And it must contain enough humidity to avoid dry skin and eye and keep nasal and throat membranes working at full bacteria- and virus-trapping capacity.
Wholesome Air for your Whole Home
Thanks to its climate and plentiful recreational activities Orlando affords a unique lifestyle. Residents are constantly on the go, allowing the outside air – and all the pollutants it contains – to enter our homes. And at the height of summer, we spend a lot of time indoors to escape the heat. This combination makes it imperative that homeowners take a multifaceted approach to maintaining wholesome air throughout their homes.
Homes built over the last 50 years focused on conserving energy by keeping cold air out in winter and hot air out in summer. The strategy has been effective, but it also has led to the unintended consequence of “Tight Home Syndrome,” trapping pollutants and stale air indoors and significantly contributing to indoor air pollution. The Orlando area trusts Service Minds One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning to maintain healthy indoor air quality with our reliable and efficient services. We are the year-round, full-service authority in filtration, circulation, and humidity control. Our indoor air quality experts are equipped to transform your heating and cooling system into an advanced whole-house air treatment center, ensuring that you and your family enjoy cleaner, healthier air year-round.

When to Call Us for Humidity Repairs
Like any appliance, humidifiers and dehumidifiers break down on occasion. If you’re experiencing operational issues, our seasoned technicians are equipped to swiftly diagnose and resolve the problem. We use the latest technology and our experience to identify the cause and rebalance your home’s air moisture quickly.
Signs your unit might need service:
- Strange Noises: These systems should run quietly. If you start to hear unusual noises or vibrations something inside may have come loose.
- Water Leaks: Pools or dripping around your humidifier could be caused by a clogged drain line, a loose connection, or a cracked reservoir. Whatever the reason, immediate attention is required.
- Mold and Mildew Growth: Fungus thrives in humid environments. If you notice an increase in mold or mildew growth in your home, your appliance may be overworked or failing to distribute moisture evenly due to inefficient airflow.
- Bad Smells: well-maintained units should remove unpleasant odors, not emit them. A musty smell might be the result of mold growth. Get it taken care of to avoid potential health hazards.
- Dry Wood: If you notice cracks developing in your wooden furniture or floors, your air could be too dry, sucking moisture from the décor and causing it to splinter.
Addressing these signs early on with a call to Service Minds One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning to fix them before they snowball.
Don’t Duck the Ductwork
In a hot, humid climate like Orlando, ductwork design, installation, and maintenance are key. Properly maintained ductwork toils behind the scenes to ensure your HVAC’s efforts to bring the indoor environment to the right temperature and quality is not wasted. These humble tubes and hoses distribute the heated or cooled air from your furnace, heat pump, or AC unit to every room in your house and pull “used” air back to the units for reheating or recooling. Operating correctly, they ensure efficient airflow for consistent temperatures, minimizing hot or cold spots in different rooms. They incorporate air filters that help trap dust, allergens, and other airborne particles before they circulate throughout your home. If your HVAC system seems wanting in any of these areas, call Service Minds One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning and we’ll dispatch a team to see if any of these common problems are the culprit:
- Seals of Disapproval: Leaky ducts allow conditioned air to escape into the crawlspaces of your home rather than keeping your family comfortable. This leads to increased energy bills and significantly reduces airflow in your home.
- Poor Engineering: Ductwork that uses the wrong material, is too long, insufficiently insulated, or follows a winding path forces HVAC systems to work harder than necessary. Improperly sized ductwork could also fail to properly handle the load produced by your heater and air conditioner.
- Many Unhappy Returns: Returns are the vents that channel used air back to your central air handling unit. They work with supply vents to create continuous circulation that allows the system to reheat or cool the air and distribute it again. If there aren’t enough return vents, or they become clogged, it will create negative pressure and make it hard for your HVAC system to draw in sufficient air. It works too hard, driving up energy costs and shortening its life.
