What Are Common Airborne Pollutants in Iowa Homes?

Iowa homeowners can face a wide range of airborne contaminants, such as:

  • Radon is a tasteless, odorless, radioactive gas that is naturally produced in soil and is responsible for 21,000 deaths every year, including 400 annually in Iowa.
  • Pollen is a significant seasonal pollutant that can trigger allergies and discomfort, especially in the spring and fall. 
  • Dust and agricultural particulates from farms, fields, livestock operations, and grain handling can travel into homes and settle in HVAC systems. 
  • Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are released from everyday household items like cleaners, candles, adhesives, new flooring, and furniture.
  • Mold spores can spread throughout homes and frequently develop in humid conditions, older basements, and river-adjacent areas. 
  • Pet dander is a common indoor allergen that remains suspended in the air and collects in carpets, furniture, and air filters.
  • Wildfire smoke from nearby fires can carry fine particulate matter that reduces air quality and irritates lungs and eyes.

Breathe easier in Cedar Rapids with tailored IAQ solutions from our local experts. Call (319) 214-5064 to schedule a service. We are available 24/7.

Common IAQ Solutions We Offer

Air Duct Repair & Installation

Leaky or damaged ducts can allow conditioned air to escape and pull in dusty, contaminated air from crawlspaces and attics. We provide air duct repair and installation to prevent pollutants from circulating. 

Air Cleaning & Filtration

Cleaner indoor air can make a noticeable difference in homes with dust, allergies, or stuffiness. We offer air cleaning and filtration options to help you find the best setup for your space and comfort priorities.

Dehumidifiers

The muggy summers can allow extra moisture to settle into your home. We install and service whole-home dehumidifiers to reduce stickiness, dry skin, and respiratory issues while keeping humidity levels more manageable. 

Humidifiers

The dry winter air can cause static, irritated skin, and discomfort. A professionally installed humidifier adds balanced moisture back into the air to help your home feel more comfortable when temperatures start to drop.

Electrostatic Filter Systems 

Electrostatic filter systems offer a reusable, low-maintenance way to reduce airborne irritants throughout your home. These high-efficiency filters capture positively charged particles like allergens and smoke by generating negative ions that attract them. 

Air Sanitizers

Sanitizing systems use ultraviolet light or germicidal irradiation to destroy viruses and bacteria before they circulate through your living space, making them a helpful solution for maintaining clean air year-round. 

What Are Signs of Poor Indoor Air Quality?

Some telltale signs of unhealthy indoor air include musty odors, visible mold or mildew, stale or stuffy air, respiratory issues, excessive dust, headaches, dizziness, and condensation on windows, pipes, or walls. 

If you notice any of these red flags, don’t hesitate to contact Master Plumbing, Heating & Cooling for swift solutions. We offer same-day scheduling, emergency services, and weekend appointments to prioritize your health and safety.

Risks of Ignoring Unhealthy Indoor Air Quality 

Unhealthy indoor air isn’t just uncomfortable. It can also lead to a variety of health issues, especially for households with children, older adults, allergy and asthma sufferers, and immunocompromised individuals. 

Some risks of poor indoor air quality include:

  • Excessive humidity or dryness
  • Congestion, coughing, and watery eyes
  • Increased energy costs due to HVAC strain
  • Respiratory diseases like bronchitis and COPD
  • Mold growth and furniture damage due to humidity imbalances 
  • Spread of germs and illnesses due to viruses and biological contaminants

Enjoy Peace of Mind with Our Innovative Air Purification Solutions

Our experts use cutting-edge technologies to combat poor indoor air quality. Our EnviroBiotics® air purifiers from BetterAir utilize your existing HVAC system to provide comprehensive protection against mold, allergens, and other harmful contaminants. 

The Biodify purifier is the first to utilize environmental probiotics to make your indoor space safer, and we are one of only a few companies that can install it. This compact model can cover up to 800 square feet. We also offer the BA-1000 for larger residences. Both are simple to use and immediately effective. 

If you’re unsure which air purifier is best for your property, our highly trained professionals can recommend tailored solutions for your needs and budget. We also provide ongoing guidance and maintenance to keep your system performing reliably.

  • I would shout from the mountaintop my 100% recommendation for Master Plumbing!
    “John was amazing!! He was courteous, kind, prompt, respectful and very knowledgeable! If I could give him 10 stars or more, I definitely would!! He took care of our "emergency" , took time to explain everything to us and even confirmed for us and appliance maintenance provider to contact. I would shout from the mountaintop my 100% recommendation for Master Plumbing and definitely for John!!”
    Sue P.
  • Would definitely recommend him and Master Plumbing.
    “John came out to do my annual plumbing inspection; caught and fixed a few things (had pictures of discrepancies), cleaned out my tankless hot water heater at no charge.”
    Eric F.
  • Very happy with my new water heater and installation!!
    “John provided prompt and excellent service as always and I appreciate the follow-up to see if I have any questions. Very happy with my new water heater and installation!! Thanks again to Maddie who is always courteous and great with scheduling!”
    Lisa K.
  • I highly recommend!
    “I am happy to share that the team at Master Plumbing, Heating & Cooling responded quickly to repair my furnace. The service technicians (Brett & Jordie) were friendly, informative, and fast. They left the furnace room cleaner than they found it.”
    Donald B.
  • Appreciate the professional service!
    “John from Master Plumbing replaced my water heater after my old one failed. Despite it being after 4 pm, he was able to quickly pick up a replacement unit and install it the same evening, staying late to complete the task. He also went above and beyond to clean up the area around the old water heater, as well as my driveway after some of the water from the old water heater leaked out.”
    Ricky K.
  • My entire experience with Master Heating, Plumbing, and Cooling was a 10 out of 10.
    “Bill M was my service tech, I don’t know if he was a plumber but he certainly installed my sump pump with absolutely no problem. He explained to me in the beginning that my sump pump “could fail” but did not try and pressure sales me into anything. What he said made me comfortable in his knowledge and I trust him. I did not get the idea that he was just trying to make the company money by upselling to me either. So exceptional work from Bill M. I’d also like to say I had a couple interactions with the office staff as well. Taylor and Allie are top notch as well. My entire experience with Master Heating, Plumbing, and Cooling was a 10 out of 10. I will continue to use them in all my heating, plumbing and cooling issues that arise.”
    Michael S.
  • Would highly recommend!
    “Bill M was my service technician. Very thorough and explained everything so I understood. Gave tips on future maintenance and did a great job of getting the new water heater installed and the old removed in a very timely manner as well as any cleanup.”
    Becky W.
  • I will definitely recommend this company!
    “We had a water softener installed. I called Master Plumbing, Heating, and Cooling at about 8AM and we had a water softener installed by 12:15. Bill was our service technician. He was so very polite and respectful of our home! ( He wore shoe coverings) Bill explained everything extremely well. We bought their Green Club Membership, for a few dollars more, which will cover plumbing, heating, and cooling. Our systems are well over 25 years old, so over the long run this membership will save us a lot, Thank you Bill and Master Plumbing, Heating & Cooling.”
