Why Indoor Air Quality Matters
As awareness of the importance of air purification or indoor air quality (IAQ) continues to grow, homeowners are seeking reliable solutions to ensure the air they breathe indoors is healthy and safe. In Denver, Colorado, IAQ is a critical consideration due to factors such as high altitude, temperature extremes, and varying levels of air pollution.
Indoor air quality plays an important role in our day-to-day lives. It can affect how our bodies feel and function, especially for those with asthma or allergies. Pollutants like pollen, pet dander, mold, and other substances in the air can create or worsen breathing issues or cause irritation to the eyes, nose, and throat.
Additionally, humidity levels that are too high or too low can be uncomfortable at best, and dangerous for people with respiratory issues at worst.
If you're worried about the air quality in your home, it's important to watch out for potential warning signs:
High levels of dust, mold and condensation can all lead to poor air quality, as can having too few (or no) plants indoors.
Unusual odors or musty smells coming from vents could also indicate poor air quality.
Additionally, persistent headaches, coughing or other respiratory issues could be linked to inadequate ventilation in your home – another sign of poor indoor air quality.
It is a good idea to get an indoor air quality test if you notice any changes to the air that persist over time. Taking steps like properly ventilating rooms and investing in a good filtration system can help ensure that your indoor air stays fresh and healthy.

High Elevation and Your Indoor Air Quality
What Causes Poor Indoor Air Quality?
The Denver area experiences high levels of air pollution due to a variety of factors, including:
- Emissions from vehicles
- Industrial processes
- And natural occurrences such as forest fires
These pollutants can infiltrate indoor spaces, leading to compromised indoor air quality and potentially causing or exacerbating existing health issues. Roots Heating & Air recognizes the importance of mitigating outdoor air pollution as part of IAQ management and offers a range of solutions, including air purifier systems, to filter out harmful particles and gases from the indoor air.
Elevation can have a significant effect on indoor air quality. At high altitudes, molecules of oxygen are less densely packed, resulting in less oxygen overall and enhancing other pollutants like ozone and particulate matter. This is especially true for regions over 5,000 feet above sea level. Denver is known as the “Mile High City” due to its elevation of approximately 5,280 feet above sea level. The higher altitude results in lower air pressure, which can affect how buildings are ventilated.
Having less oxygen available for respiration can result in more severe reactions to allergens, such as pollen or dust mites—especially since those substances already exist in a comparatively denser state at high elevation. Homeowners and renters should be aware of their area’s elevation to determine what steps might need to be taken to best optimize their interior air quality.
Improper ventilation can lead to a buildup of indoor air pollutants, such as
- Carbon dioxide
- Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
- And mold spores
All of which can significantly impact IAQ. Roots Heating & Air understands the importance of proper ventilation in maintaining healthy indoor air quality and offers expert ventilation solutions, including installation and maintenance of mechanical ventilation systems that ensure a continuous supply of fresh outdoor air while expelling stale indoor air.
Temperature extremes are another significant factor that affects IAQ in Denver. The region experiences hot summers and cold winters, which necessitate the high use of heating and cooling systems for most of the year.
