Indoor Air Quality
Indoor Air Quality Solutions for Clemson, SC Homes
Did you know indoor air can be two to five times more polluted than outdoor air? If you’re battling allergies, musty odors, or high humidity at home, PECO’s Indoor Air Quality solutions help you breathe easier. Upstate South Carolina’s climate means plenty of pollen, dust, and humidity—let us transform your home into a healthier, fresher space for your family.
Common Indoor Air Quality Concerns
- Allergies triggered by pollen, dust, and pet dander

- Dry, static air in winter or excess indoor humidity
- Airborne germs, viruses, and bacteria
PECO’s IAQ Solutions
Air Duct Cleaning & Sealing: Remove years of dust, pollen, and mold spores from your ductwork. Sealing prevents dirty air from entering your home and improves HVAC efficiency.
Air Purification Systems
- Whole-house air purifiers (including HEPA filters and electronic air cleaners) trap and neutralize up to 99% of airborne particles, pollen, and even germs.
- UV air sanitizers—such as APCO UV lamps—target bacteria, mold, and viruses at the source, keeping coils clean and your air healthier.
High-Efficiency Filters & Media Cabinets
Upgrade from basic 1” filters to high-performance 4–5” filters or HEPA systems. These capture more dust, pollen, and allergens—ideal for allergy sufferers.
Humidity Control
- Dehumidifiers for summer prevent mold and musty odors, while improving comfort.
- Humidifiers for winter add needed moisture, preventing dry throat, static shocks, and protecting wood furniture.
Ventilation Solutions
PECO can install energy recovery ventilators (ERV/HRV) to bring in fresh outdoor air without losing comfort or efficiency—a great option for tightly sealed homes.

Cleaner indoor air means:
- Fewer allergy and asthma symptoms
- Healthier respiratory system for your family
- Elimination of musty or stale odors
- Protecting your home from mold and moisture damage
- A more comfortable, energy-efficient home
Did you know? The EPA reports that Americans spend about 90% of their time indoors—and indoor air can be 2–5x more polluted than outdoor air. Investing in IAQ products is an investment in your health and peace of mind.
