Indoor Air Quality Services in Cincinnati, OH

Indoor Air Can Be Up To Five Times Dirtier Than Outdoor Air

The EPA has found that indoor air can be up to five times dirtier than outdoor air. Air Plus Heating and Cooling has been helping Greater Cincinnati homeowners breathe cleaner, healthier air since 1993, with whole-home IAQ solutions installed and serviced by the same NATE-certified team that handles your heating and cooling.

Our Certified Indoor Air Quality Services

Air Duct Cleaning
Your home’s ductwork carries every particle your HVAC system circulates — dust, mold spores, pet dander, pollen, and accumulated debris. Air Plus provides professional air duct cleaning that removes buildup from your entire duct system, improving both air quality and system efficiency. Recommended every three to five years, or following any renovation, water damage, or pest intrusion.
Humidity levels directly affect your comfort, your health, and your home’s structure. Air Plus installs whole-home humidifiers from 12 to 18 GPD that work alongside your heating system to prevent dry air conditions in winter. We also install whole-home dehumidifiers for the summer months, when a typical household generates over 11 liters of excess moisture daily, which can lead to mold growth and worsen conditions like asthma.
Air Plus installs MERV 8 to MERV 15 whole-home air cleaners that capture particles as small as 0.01 microns, and the iWave-R ionization system that actively kills mold, bacteria, and viruses on your coil and throughout your home. The iWave-R requires no maintenance, produces no ozone or harmful byproducts, and generates over 160 million ions per cubic centimeter. For households with severe allergies, we also offer whole-home HEPA filtration systems.

Certified & Trusted Quality

Locally Owned

Your thermostat controls the temperature in your home. It does not control what is in the air. The EPA estimates that indoor air is up to five times dirtier than outdoor air, carrying bacteria, viruses, allergens, pet dander, mold spores, and VOCs through your ductwork every time your system runs. For families dealing with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory conditions, that matters.

Trusted Since 1993

Air Plus has provided indoor air quality services to Greater Cincinnati homeowners since 1993. Our IAQ solutions cover air duct cleaning, whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers, MERV-rated air cleaners, and the iWave-R ionization system. Every solution integrates directly with your existing HVAC system and is installed by the same NATE-certified technicians who service your furnace and air conditioner.

Why Cincinnati Homeowners Trust Air Plus for Indoor Air Quality

Indoor air quality is not a standalone product category. It is a direct extension of how
well your heating and cooling system is designed, maintained, and upgraded.

Every IAQ Solution Integrates With Your Existing HVAC System

Air Plus does not sell standalone air quality products. Every humidifier, air purifier, and ventilator we install is integrated directly into your existing system and sized correctly for your home, delivering fundamentally better results than a portable unit sitting in a single room.

The Same NATE-Certified Team Handles IAQ and HVAC

When you call Air Plus for an IAQ concern, you are working with the same NATE-certified technicians who service your furnace and air conditioner. That continuity means no miscommunication between contractors and no equipment that is incompatible with your existing system.

Upfront Pricing Before Any Work Begins

Your technician assesses your home, explains what they find, and presents a complete cost estimate before any IAQ product is installed. You approve the price first. We recommend what is appropriate for your specific home, your family's health needs, and your budget.

Thirty Years of Cincinnati Homes and Cincinnati Conditions

Greater Cincinnati's humid summers and dry winters create specific IAQ challenges that vary by season. Air Plus has been working in Cincinnati homes since 1993 and recommends solutions based on what actually works in this region's conditions, not on what carries the highest margin.

Frequently Asked Questions About Indoor Air Quality in Cincinnati

whole-home-humidifier-cincinnati.
How do I know if my home has an indoor air quality problem?
The most common signs of poor indoor air quality include persistent allergy or respiratory symptoms that improve when you leave the home, visible dust buildup on vents and registers shortly after cleaning, musty or stale odors that do not clear, excessive dryness in winter that causes static electricity and cracked skin, or condensation on windows and walls in summer. If one or more family members have asthma, allergies, or a respiratory condition that seems worse at home than elsewhere, indoor air quality is worth investigating. Air Plus can assess your home’s air quality and recommend appropriate solutions based on what we find.
The National Air Duct Cleaners Association recommends having your home’s ductwork inspected every two years and cleaned every three to five years under normal conditions. Air Plus recommends scheduling duct cleaning more frequently if you have pets that shed, have recently completed a renovation that generated dust or debris, have experienced water intrusion or flood damage, have moved into a home where duct cleaning history is unknown, or if any family member has allergies or asthma that has worsened since moving in.
An air cleaner, such as the MERV-rated whole-home filtration systems Air Plus installs, captures airborne particles by passing air through a physical filter medium. The higher the MERV rating, the smaller the particles the filter captures, up to MERV 15, which captures particles as small as 0.01 microns. An air purifier, such as the iWave-R system Air Plus installs, actively generates ions that neutralize mold, bacteria, viruses, and VOCs at the molecular level as air passes through your HVAC system. Both approaches improve air quality, and they can be used together for comprehensive protection.
Yes. Maintaining proper indoor humidity levels during Cincinnati winters, ideally between 30 and 50 percent, reduces the airborne concentration of dust mites and certain airborne particles, relieves dry throat and nasal passages that make people more susceptible to viruses, and prevents the drying of mucous membranes that serve as the body’s first line of defense against airborne pathogens. A whole-home humidifier integrated with your heating system maintains consistent humidity throughout every room, unlike portable units that only affect a single space.
Yes, in two specific ways. First, clean ductwork allows your HVAC system to move air more efficiently, reducing the energy required to heat and cool your home. The EPA has found that as little as one-tenth of a centimeter of buildup on an HVAC coil can reduce system efficiency by up to 21 percent. Second, maintaining proper indoor humidity levels in winter allows you to feel comfortable at a lower thermostat setting, since humid air retains heat more effectively than dry air. Air Plus can assess both your ductwork and your humidity levels and recommend the most cost-effective improvements for your specific home.

We couldn’t be happier with the work Jon did for us. He hooked up our existing water lines and installed a new utility sink with the water line connection. He was friendly, professional, and paid great attention to detail. Everything turned out exactly as we hoped. If you need a plumber, we highly recommend Jon and the team at Air Plus Heating & Cooling!

They were able to be here quickly and determined the problem promptly. The service diagnostic is very reasonable. They gave me a couple of options on a 21 year old AC and gave me their honest opinion. I appreciate that they understand my situation and are willing to help me get back up and running as soon as possible. Great company and I highly recommend them. Update: they installed a whole new system and very professional install by Dave,Tristian, and Tony. Mike was able to get me an affordable system and he did a great job with having it installed quickly as temps will be in the 80’s next week. I couldn’t be happier with my whole experience with Air Plus.
