Autumn brings a mix of environmental and operational challenges that can impact indoor air.
More Time Indoors: Cooler weather leads to higher occupancy rates and longer stays in shared spaces.
Decaying Vegetation & Moisture: Fallen leaves and damp conditions contribute to elevated mold and allergen levels.
HVAC System Reactivation: Restarting heating systems can stir up settled dust and particulates.
Wildfire Smoke: In many regions, late-season wildfires can introduce harmful PM2.5 into buildings, even with windows closed.
Fluctuating Humidity: Weather swings can lead to inconsistent indoor moisture levels that affect both comfort and air quality.
