Top Indoor Air Quality Tips for a Healthier Summer!

By Aztil – July 16, 2025

What are the ways in improving indoor air quality? Many people feel safe in their homes. Unfortunately, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), pollutants inside the home are often two to five times the rate of those outdoors. Because poor air quality (IAQ) in the house can significantly impact your family’s health, it’s important to consider steps you can take to increase your indoor air quality this summer.

Install a Whole-Home Air Purifier

Whole-home air purifiers that integrate directly with your HVAC system are one of the best ways to offer continuous air filtration for your entire home. This step is beneficial if you have pets or family members with allergies at home. Remove allergens and improve your overall air quality in one fell swoop!

Check Your Air Filters for Improving Indoor Air Quality

An essential component of a well-functioning HVAC system is the disposable air filter. The air filter is generally between the return duct and the air handler. Its job is to trap dirt, dust, mold, dander, animal fur, bacteria, and other unwanted air pollutants, keeping them from cycling back into your breathable air.

For air filters to function well and keep your indoor air quality highest, it’s best to clean them every month and replace them every 90 days.

Balance Your Home’s Humidity Levels

In North America, summer ushers in the hottest months, and with heat comes rising humidity levels. Because humidity in the home can cause a rise in the concentration of certain air pollutants (particularly mold!), you must take steps to balance your home’s humidity levels through this season. Opening the windows in the mornings and evenings when the weather’s cooler can help, as can adjusting the settings on your HVAC system. In some cases, you may want to invest in a dehumidifier.

Try to keep your home humidity levels somewhere between 30% – 50%. A simple moisture gauge, available for purchase online or at your local big box store, can help you keep an eye on things and let you know when the time has come to act.

Maximize Home Ventilation

A well-ventilated home is a great factor in improving indoor air quality by lowering the concentrations of indoor air contaminants.

Potential indoor contaminants may include:

Chemicals and emissions from cleaning compounds
Carbon monoxide from gas appliances
Particulates from wood-burning stoves

Consider spot ventilation for troublesome areas (such as exhaust fans in the kitchen) or dilution ventilation solutions for the entire house. Often, we provide whole-house solutions by making changes to your HVAC system. Feel free to reach out if you have questions about how we can help ensure your home has good ventilation for summer.

Attend to Your Ducts

One more factor in improving indoor air quality is to regularly check your ducts. Over time, pollutants, including dust, dirt, and mold, can accumulate in your air conditioning ducts. Routine cleanings and re-sealings can ensure higher air quality throughout your home.

We recommend cleaning your ducts every 3-5 years. If you can’t recall the last time your ducts were cleaned and re-sealed, you’re probably overdue for this service. If you’re unsure, just call us at Aztil AC, and we’ll stop by to help you evaluate your current needs!

Keep Your HVAC Maintenance on a Schedule

Finally, the best thing you can do in improving indoor air quality in your home is to have your HVAC system inspected and maintained at regular intervals. Not only will this keep your house cool and your indoor air clean all summer long, but you can also stay ahead of potential problems and take proactive steps to avoid the potential for major repairs down the road.

John Martien

I have had pretty good service from Aztil for the last 4 years as a service contract customer. I called them when my AC stopped working and they sent a tech who replaced a 45/7.5 capacitor in about 15 minutes. He then gave me an invoice and estimate for $375.00. I questioned him on what work he did and show me the part he replaced. He showed me the capacitor and said $375 was the cost to replace it. If you look up the part it only cost $25, even with a service call charge there is no way it should have cost me $375... I am beyond pissed and have tried to call Aztil to speak with someone about it but no one is calling me back. I hope this is not your experience just thought I would share mine

Follow up on this review.... Jack the service manager reached out and apologized for the mistake on the charges and issued a refund. Mistakes happen it's how the company handles them that makes a difference. I am glad they resolved this issue relatively quickly.

Response from the owner:Hello John, Thank you for taking time to provide feedback about your experience with our company. We completely understand your frustration and apologize for any dissatisfaction that may have caused your day. We are eager to discuss this experience with you. Please call our customer service manager, Jack. He can be reached at (561) 202-8726. It is our goal to make sure we resolve any issue we can and look forward to speaking with you.

Harvey Meiselman

On July 17th my air conditioning stopped working properly (it was set to 75 but was running at 82) and customer service scheduled a quick date for repair. Michael King was the technician they sent and he was very professional, friendly and explained what was being done. He was very thorough and made sure everything was resolved before he left. I would recommend Michael King for any A/C repair.
The a/c is again running great.

Claudia

Juan came to our condo within two hours of me calling the company with a two week water leak that other companies could not fix within the past two weeks. He was therefore probably close to an hour to diagnose the problem, found what he thought was the problem, called me because I am out of town and had friends in the apartment to let them in, and he explained everything extremely professionally and calmly and told me thatafter the weekend since today is Friday they would probably try to get the part that’s needed which was a new ACP pan perhaps and did diagnose other problems. So far, we are extremely happy thank you. Kudos to Juan.

Response from the owner:Hi Claudia, thank you for your kind words! We're so glad to hear that Juan did an excellent job and that you were pleased with the outcome. Thank you for being a valued customer.

Lyle Platt

I wanted to commend Dana Dussualt for his hard work at rectifying a substantial issue that I had with my HVAC system. It did require multiple visits but he stuck with it and figured out the issue and did get it resolved. Dana spent hours in the attic in the middle of summer working on getting this fixed. He is both a very hard worker and a pleasant individual. Dana is a credit to your company. In addition, the office staff worked with me in getting these repairs done by insuring we would get service on the date promised. Having no air conditioning in the summer is not a great experience. I have been an Aztil customer for many years.

Response from the owner:Hi Lyle, thank you for your kind words! We're so glad to hear that Dana did an excellent job and that you were pleased with the outcome. Thank you for being a valued customer.
