You have the beauty of the four seasons, mountains, beaches, and city skylines right at your fingertips—the Northeast is home, and you’ll do anything to defend it.
But environmental factors that are out of your control threaten to damage the safe haven you’ve created.
What’s the best way to keep your home safe and your family healthy? It all starts with Healthy Air.
Winter weather causes temperatures to drop, and humidity levels dwindle as well. Too little moisture in winter can be troubling for you and your family when it comes to dry, itchy skin and nasal passages as well as battling seasonal illnesses like the flu.
Like other parts of the country, your air quality in the Northeast is affected by common threats like allergens, smog, and radon.
Summers are wet and muggy, winters are very cold and snowy—the Northeast offers the best of both worlds, with an average temperature of 26°F to 85°F each year.
Rainfall plays a big part in the Northeast’s air quality, with an average annual precipitation of 43 to 47 inches. This rainfall leads to damp environments and flooding that increases airborne contaminants.
The Northeast is no newcomer to the wet, humid days of muggy season. From late-May to late-September, be prepared for humidity to wreak havoc on your air quality.
The risk of wildfires and wildfire smoke is not as common in the Northeast as it is in other regions of the country. However, because wildfire smoke can travel up to 3,000 miles, the risk of it damaging your air quality is still high.
Living in the Northeast, your risk for radon is high. The geological makeup of the region allows radon to lurk beneath your home and enter through cracks or holes in your foundation. No matter where you live, it’s best to test once per year.
Balance humidity to preserve your health, comfort, and home, and protect against airborne viruses.
Capture airborne viruses, allergens, and asthma triggers, and reduce odors from cooking and pets.
