1 IMPROVING YOUR INDOOR AIR QUALITY with Timo s Where Good Service Never Goes Out of Style

2 The Home Comfort Gold Mine of Improving Your IAQ Wealth can be defined in many ways. One individual may consider it in terms of money. Another may see it from a less materialistic perspective identifying love from family and friends as treasured capital. In 1848, the universally accepted standard of wealth was gold. In fact, it was the promise of gold that inspired many to travel across the United States in search of a new and hopefully richer life. And, it was here in California that many found what they were looking for. Mechanical The Golden Filters Benefits HEPA The Information Filter Gold Mine Electrostatic Electronic Ultra-Violet Located in the Golden State, Timo s Air Conditioning & Heating s team has only one choice as an HVAC company: to help you dig for ultimate wealth. And, for our team, true wealth is total home comfort. However, achieving this takes more than just a dependable heating and cooling system. It means digging deep to uncover air that s clean, fresh and healthy to breathe. Thankfully, our indoor air quality services can help.

3 INDOOR AIR QUALITY SOLUTIONS WITH TIMO S Buried in your home s air are many tiny particles threatening your indoor air quality and, ultimately, your health. You see, all household cleaning products, adhesives, disinfectant sprays, deodorizers, insecticides, paints and stains in your home emit various pollutants that adversely affect your indoor environment. In fact, these contaminants can stem from smoking, pet dander, hair, soot, and the accumulation of dust, lint, or dirt on home surfaces. So, since today s homes are sealed up tightly for maximum energy savings, they have become potential minefields for the growth of harmful bacteria, viruses and pollutants known to undermine your respiratory health. But now, it s time to extract these contaminants from your home to harvest a richer and healthier indoor environment.

4 It s important to understand that unhealthy air is like fool s gold. It might seem like it s clean and fresh when that simply isn t true. In fact, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ranks indoor air pollution among the top five environmental risks to public health. Additionally, the agency has found indoor air quality two to five times and as much as 100 times more detrimental than outdoor air quality. So, what does this mean for you? Well, poor indoor air quality raises an array of health-related issues, including: Headaches Dizziness Respiratory Infections Throat & ear infections Common colds Flu Asthma Allergies

5 Gold was so fiercely pursued because of what it represented: the chance for a better life. Today s homeowners want fresh indoor air for the same reason. Clean and contaminant-free air helps families avoid ailments caused or complicated by an unhealthy indoor environment. Though a pollutant-free home is beneficial for all, paying attention to the quality of your home s air isn t an option for those with nagging allergies or asthma problems, elderly people with weakened immune systems and infants with compromised or underdeveloped respiratory systems. Instead, it s a necessity. So, blast away your home s airborne contaminants to leave behind deep breaths of healthy and harm-free air every time.

6 to a Healthier Home Winter s arrival often ended treks to find gold because the cold temperatures made the journey more dangerous, forcing many gold diggers to put their plans for a better life on hold. But when it comes to the search for a healthier home, you should never put your plans on hold. Clean indoor air is more important than ever in the winter when families spend more time indoors, breathing in unhealthy air more frequently. So, put your prospecting hat on and get to work. Your quality of life depends on it.

7 At Timo s Air Conditioning & Heating, our certified technicians are experienced miners who will help you strike it rich when it comes to air quality. In fact, we promise the benefits of our indoor air quality services are worth their weight in gold. That s because, from air duct cleaning to air purifiers, our products don t just clean the air you breathe, but also the surfaces you touch. Allow us to shovel through the dust and contaminants to unearth the jackpot of fresh air.

8 Contact Timo s Air Conditioning & Heating for Our IAQ Services Changing the quality of your life doesn t have to be daunting. In fact, it can be as simple as contacting Timo s team to see how our company s indoor air quality services can raise your home s health to our golden standard.
