What Does Indoor Air Quality Refer to?

Indoor air quality refers to the cleanliness and safety of the air inside your home. Poor air quality stems from various sources, including dust, mold, mildew, asbestos, bacteria, smoke, chemical vapors, and even dangerous gases like carbon monoxide and radon. These contaminants create health risks that span minor irritation to serious respiratory issues and disease.

Our Indoor Air Quality Services in Philadelphia, PA

We provide a curated selection of systems and services to actively improve the air throughout your entire home.

Indoor Air Quality Testing

Our home air testing service provides the foundation for effective air quality improvement. During IAQ testing, we measure pollutant levels, identify contamination sources, and assess your current indoor environment. This thorough evaluation reveals hidden problems like elevated particulates, dangerous gas concentrations, or excess moisture that could lead to mold growth. You’ll receive detailed results showing exactly what’s affecting your air quality and our recommendations for resolution.

Air Filtration Systems

Air filtration systems primarily trap and remove particles suspended in the air. These systems use physical filters that catch dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and other airborne contaminants. The process relies on air passing through a fine mesh or pleated material that captures these particles. Filtration systems are highly effective for those with allergies, asthma, or respiratory sensitivities because they reduce the concentration of irritants circulating indoors.

Whole-Home Air Purifier Installations

Whole-home air purifiers go beyond filtration by actively neutralizing or destroying pollutants. Many purifiers combine a filter with additional technologies, such as:

  • Activated carbon filters for absorbing odors and chemical fumes
  • Ultraviolet (UV) light for neutralizing bacteria and viruses
  • Ionizers that charge airborne particles so they clump together and fall out of the air

This makes purification systems effective against a broader range of contaminants, including smoke, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and some pathogens.

Humidifier & Dehumidifier System Installs

The atmosphere inside your home should feel comfortable and balanced, no matter the season. Winter air can strip the necessary moisture from your environment, leading to the discomfort of dry skin and static electricity. A home humidifier system helps create a more pleasant indoor setting during the coldest months.

Conversely, summer can bring excessive moisture, making your home feel damp and creating an environment where mold and mildew can appear. A whole-home dehumidifier remedies this by removing that extra water from the air. We install both of these powerful systems to provide you with total humidity control, making your home’s air feel just right all year round.

Ventilation Services for Cleaner Air

Good ventilation is key to healthy indoor air. Without it, pollutants and moisture build up, leading to allergens, mold, and even harmful gases. GEN3 Electric & HVAC installs and services ventilation systems that exchange stale air with fresh, filtered air while balancing humidity. The result: cleaner, safer, more comfortable air throughout your entire home.

Benefits of Professional IAQ Services

Investing in professional indoor air quality services creates immediate and long-term advantages for your family’s health, comfort, and your home’s functionality.

Health Improvements

Breathing cleaner air can lead to a significant reduction in allergy symptoms, respiratory irritation, and the risk of airborne disease. By removing triggers like dust, mold, and other particulates, you create a healthier environment that supports your family’s well-being.

Next-Level Comfort

Imagine a home free from persistent stale odor, stuffiness, or the clingy feeling of high humidity. Our indoor air quality services help create a fresher, more pleasant atmosphere, making your home a more enjoyable place to live and breathe.

Better Energy Efficiency

When your HVAC system isn’t working against clogged components and a restrictive air filter, it operates with greater efficiency. Cleaner coils and ductwork allow your air conditioning and heating systems to perform optimally, which can lead to lower energy consumption and reduced utility bills.

Signs to Call Our Indoor Air Quality Company

Certain persistent issues in your home often point directly to problems with your air quality. Look for these common indicators that it’s time for a professional evaluation.

  • Lingering Odors: A persistent stale or musty odor can indicate the presence of mold, mildew, or bacteria growing somewhere in your home or HVAC system.
  • Excessive Dust: If you find yourself constantly dusting surfaces shortly after cleaning, your air filtration system may be failing to capture airborne particulates.
  • Worsening Allergy Symptoms: Increased sneezing, coughing, watery eyes, or shortness of breath while inside your home are classic signs of indoor allergens.
  • Visible Mold or Mildew: Any visible signs of mold or mildew growth, especially around vents or areas with high moisture, require immediate attention to prevent further contamination.
  • Uneven Humidity Levels: If your air feels overly dry in the winter or sticky and damp in the summer, your home could benefit from a humidity control system.

George was an excellent help with installing 2 new recessed lights and wiring an area for a chandelier id like to put in. He was so kind and informative, and cleaned up after his work was complete. I am satisfied with the work and would use them again!

Gen3 added a 110V outlet and ran a new line from my box. It was probably the most transparent, communicative, and calming experience I've had with a contractor. Branden was awesome, answerred all my questions, and quickly installed this new outlet. I highly recommend Gen3!!

Gen3 removed the old knob and tube wiring from our house. It was a big job but Aaron and Mike & co were great. Very respectful towards us and our stuff. Very efficient, professional and hard working. Showed up exactly when they said they would and left a clean work space at the end of the day. Polite and communicative and trustworthy. Job started and ended right when they said it would and came in right on the dollar per original estimate. We chose them based on the recommendation of our neighbors and would definitely recommend them to others.

Gen 3 just installed a mini split system in my apartment. Every person I dealt with was exceptionally pleasant. The installers (Eric and Jonathan and crew) stayed in touch with me and made sure I was happy with the unit placement. It was a major job, requiring a lot of people, and they got it done ahead of schedule. I could not be more pleased with the service, and I will absolutely use Gen 3 in future for any electrical work I need.
