Indoor Air Quality sets builders apart
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is more than a buzzword, but what is shaping the future of building. Clients across all markets are looking for homes that are healthy and comfortable year round. In a market like Texas, who experiences extreme heat and humidity, IAQ is on the forefront of a client’s mind.
A high-performance home both conserves energy and creates enhanced livability.As homes become more airtight to improve efficiency, managing airflow and moisture becomes more complex. Without the right balance, these tightly sealed high-performance homes can trap heat, humidity and pollutants. This would be the opposite of what a builder wants for exceptional IAQ . For homebuilders, this new standard can be both a challenge and an opportunity.
“In a housing market that increasingly values comfort, wellness, and energy efficiency, indoor air quality is emerging as a new frontier for differentiation,” said professionals with Panasonic Eco Systems Company of America.
