When it comesto the elements that make a house safe and comfortable, none are as important as air and water. Our bodies demand air that is clean and free of pollutants and allergens. And we need water that doesn’t contain lead or other toxins.
Beyond safety, quality is important. Water that is full of minerals (hard water) can cause many problems, from rashes to pipes that are crammed with deposits. Room air that is too high or low in humidity can be uncomfortable or, worse, damage your home’s structure.
