How to Improve Indoor Air Quality in Your Arkansas Home
May 07, 2025
You may not be able to see indoor air pollution, but it could still impact your daily health and comfort. Dust, pet dander, excess humidity, and even cleaning products can all contribute to poor indoor air quality (IAQ). And those pollutants have fewer ways to escape in today’s tightly sealed, energy-efficient homes.
At Mohr Air Conditioning, we help Arkansas homeowners breathe easier with proven IAQ solutions tailored to their homes. Whether you're struggling with allergies, odors, or humidity, we offer expert products and services to clean the air you breathe so your home feels fresher, healthier, and more comfortable year-round.
1. Change Your Air Filters Regularly
A clean HVAC filter is the first line of defense against indoor air pollutants. Over time, filters collect dust, dirt, pet hair, and other debris. If they’re not changed often enough, they stop filtering effectively and may even push contaminants back into the air.
We recommend changing your filters every 1–3 months, depending on your household. Need help? Mohr offers filter recommendations and replacements tailored to your system.
2. Install Advanced Air Purification Devices
If you're serious about air quality, standard filters aren't always enough. That's where our robust air purification systems come in.
iWave Air Purifier

3. Control Humidity with a Whole-Home Humidifier
Too much or too little humidity can lead to various issues, from respiratory irritation to mold growth and wood damage. Our humidifiers help you maintain the ideal humidity range for comfort and health.
With the right humidity control, you can breathe easier, protect wood floors and furniture, and even reduce static electricity in the winter
4. Improve Airflow with Fresh Air Ventilators
Sometimes your indoor air just needs a refresh. Our fresh air ventilators pull in clean outdoor air while exhausting stale, contaminated indoor air. This is especially helpful in sealed homes or homes with strong cooking, pet, or chemical odors.
5. Add UV Lights to Your HVAC System
Moisture in your ductwork or cooling coils can lead to microbial growth, such as mold and bacteria. Ultraviolet (UV) lights help stop this at the source by sterilizing airborne contaminants before they circulate through your home.
Mohr installs UV lights directly into your HVAC system to kill mold and bacteria where they form, keeping your air cleaner and your system more efficient.
6. Protect Your Family with a Carbon Monoxide Detector
Carbon monoxide (CO) is colorless, odorless, and deadly. If you rely on gas appliances or heating systems, a CO detector is essential for safety.
Mohr can install carbon monoxide detectors as part of your IAQ upgrade to help ensure early detection of this dangerous gas.
7. Enhance Comfort with Zoning and Programmable Thermostats
Air quality isn’t just about what’s in the air—it’s also about how your home feels. With zoning systems and programmable thermostats, you can control the temperature and comfort level in each area of your home. This reduces unnecessary energy use while keeping every room just right.
