Living in Cleveland means experiencing all four seasons, but from winter heating to summer cooling, your home’s indoor air quality (IAQ) can take a hit. From allergens and humidity to dust and pollutants, the air inside your home can quickly become less healthy than you think. The good news? A few smart upgrades and habits can make a big difference.

The HVAC team at Anderson Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric shares five proven ways to breathe cleaner, healthier air in your Cleveland home:

1. Upgrade to a High-Efficiency Air Filter

Standard filters catch the big stuff, but a high-efficiency (HEPA or MERV-rated) filter traps smaller airborne particles like pollen, pet dander, and even some bacteria. It’s one of the easiest ways to instantly improve the air you breathe every day.

2. Schedule Routine HVAC Maintenance

Dust, mold, and debris can build up inside your HVAC system over time, reducing both air quality and efficiency. At Anderson Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric, we offer seasonal tune-ups for Cleveland homes to ensure your system is clean, safe, and running its best.

3. Add a Whole-Home Air Purifier

Take your indoor air quality to the next level with a professionally installed air purification system. These systems neutralize airborne contaminants and odors—great for families with allergies, pets, or respiratory sensitivities.

4. Control Humidity with a Dehumidifier or Humidifier

Cleveland summers can be humid and winters extremely dry—both of which can impact comfort and health. Installing a whole-home humidifier or dehumidifier helps balance your indoor environment year-round, reducing mold risk and improving respiratory comfort.

5. Keep Vents & Ductwork Clean

If your vents are dusty or your ductwork hasn’t been cleaned in years, it may be time to schedule a cleaning. Dirty ducts can circulate allergens and irritants throughout your home—especially in older Cleveland-area homes.
