Most people spend the majority of their time indoors, up to 90% according to the EPA. Because homes, businesses and other buildings are tightly sealed to maximize energy efficiency, this can result in high indoor pollution levels.
Ditter Heating, Cooling & Electrical has many years of experience offering reliable solutions for improving indoor air quality in Medina, MN, and the western Twin Cities. We’re not comfortable until you are, so we’ll find every way possible to improve the health and cleanliness of the air you breathe indoors. Our NATE-certified experts will provide trustworthy opinions and no-obligation estimates for how you can improve your home’s air quality.
The best way to do so is with well-designed indoor air quality equipment. Ditter offers many different systems capable of purifying indoor air.
If you’re struggling with low humidity during the winter, a whole-home humidifier keeps indoor moisture balanced for ideal comfort and health. You can even improve air circulation by installing a whole-house ventilation system.
Reduce pollutants that can trigger allergy and asthma symptoms with an air filtration system. These systems are equipped with HEPA filters that trap more irritating airborne particles. When paired with a UV germicidal lamp that destroys bacteria and viruses under certain airflow conditions, you’ll be breathing fresher, cleaner air.
For both equipment and customer service, Ditter has your back. We’re your local HVAC indoor air quality experts, and we take pride in ensuring all your needs are met.

3 Common Signs of Poor Indoor Air Quality
Evidence of poor air quality isn’t always obvious. You may not know if your indoor air is polluted or unhealthy. Here are some of the most common signs the air quality at your home or business could be improved.
1. Excess Dust
Are you struggling to keep your home or business clean, even with regular dusting? Indoor air quality and HVAC systems go hand-in-hand. If filters are dirty or clogged, pollutants may circulate more easily. Keep filters changed regularly to minimize dust buildup. Upgrading your filters or adding a whole-home filtration system can help allergy and asthma sufferers breathe more easily.
2. Frequent Discomfort
Indoor air quality is about more than cleanliness. It can affect temperature and humidity as well. You may struggle to keep comfortable even when your heating and cooling system is working normally. A whole-home humidifier or dehumidifier can address these problems. Keeping your home’s humidity in check can help you stay more comfortable at an energy-efficient temperature.
3. Unpleasant Odors
Modern construction is tightly sealed to stop air from escaping. This makes odors more difficult to remove, especially ones produced during cooking or cleaning. Chemical odors in particular can cause dizziness, headaches and respiratory irritation.
Improving airflow is typically the best solution. Sometimes that can be accomplished by simply opening a window, but that’s less than ideal during Minnseota’s cold winter months. A ventilation system can help by bringing in outdoor air, while a whole-home air filtration system or HEPA air filtration system can eliminate lingering odors.
How We Improve Home Indoor Air Quality
Ditter uses several indoor air quality solutions and strategies. One of them includes indoor air quality testing to help you keep your indoor air as clean and healthy as possible. We may recommend specialized equipment or the performance of routine tasks. You can always trust our advice to be in your best interest.
This begins by placing an AirAdvice® IAQ Monitor in your home for a few days to detect:
- Allergens
- Dust
- Dander
- Certain odors and chemicals, like volatile organic compounds
- Temperature and humidity
- Carbon monoxide
This test provides us with a comprehensive report on indoor air quality issues in your home. From there, we may suggest adding equipment to improve indoor air quality in your home.
This equipment includes air filtration systems, humidifiers and dehumidifiers, UV germicidal lamps, and ventilation systems. Whatever you need, you can count on Ditter to provide the right solution for your needs.
