To commemorate Heart Health Month, the trusted home service company offers insight into promoting cardiovascular wellness through proactive home maintenance
STERLING, Va., Feb. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — February is Heart Health Month, which is a time to focus on cardiovascular fitness. Cardinal Plumbing Heating & Air, a trusted home service provider serving Northern Virginia, observes this special season with a set of guidelines linking heart health to an oft-overlooked factor: indoor air quality.
To observe Heart Health Month, Cardinal Plumbing Heating & Air shares tips to support wellness via indoor air quality.
“Poor indoor air quality — caused by dust, allergens and other airborne pollutants —can negatively impact overall health, including heart function,” said Daniel Fuentes, co-founder of Cardinal Plumbing Heating & Air. “Many homeowners don’t realize that the air they breathe indoors can contribute to cardiovascular strain.”
Research from the American Heart Association confirms poor indoor air quality can have a number of adverse effects on the heart and circulation. Exposure to airborne pollutants has been linked to narrowed arteries, increased blood pressure and other serious concerns.
Fuentes says there are ways to alleviate some of these concerns, starting with a proactive approach to home maintenance.
“An indoor air quality specialist can evaluate your home, assessing it for opportunities to minimize pollutants and create an altogether healthier environment,” Fuentes said. “Solutions may include having your ducts cleaned or installing an indoor air quality system.”
In terms of routine maintenance, homeowners can promote a higher level of indoor air quality simply by ensuring they change their air return filters on a regular basis—usually monthly, though it is always best to check the directions provided with specific filters. Additionally, in homes that experience high humidity, the use of a dehumidifier can help reduce moisture in the air—and with it, the growth of mold, another common source of air pollution.
Ultimately, Fuentes says working with a skilled indoor air technician can help ensure a more comfortable living space and potentially be a major investment in ongoing cardiovascular health.
