Indoor Air Quality Solutions in Wappingers Falls, NY
Did you know indoor air can be more polluted than the air outside? From dust, pollen, and pet dander to mold, viruses, and VOCs, your home’s air may hide unseen threats to your health and comfort. McCourt Heating & Cooling helps families across Dutchess County breathe easier with advanced air quality solutions—customized for local homes and the Hudson Valley climate.
Why Worry About Indoor Air Quality?
Americans spend up to 90% of their time indoors, where air can be 2–5 times (or more) polluted than outdoors. Common symptoms of poor IAQ include constant dust, lingering odors, allergy flare-ups, dry skin in winter, and mold or mustiness in summer. The EPA even ranks indoor air quality as a top environmental risk. Clean air is vital for your family’s health—especially for kids, seniors, and anyone with allergies or asthma.

Indoor Air Quality FAQ
How can I tell if my home’s air quality is poor?
Signs include constant dust, musty or lingering smells, and allergy or asthma symptoms that improve when you leave home. We offer testing to diagnose hidden issues.
What’s better—an air purifier or a humidifier?
They serve different needs. Purifiers remove particulates and allergens, while humidifiers add moisture during dry winters. We’ll help you choose the best mix for your space.
Will a UV light really help my HVAC system?
Absolutely! UV lights kill mold, bacteria, and viruses on your HVAC coil, improving both air quality and system performance. Many customers notice fresher air almost immediately.
Can you install HEPA filters or advanced air cleaners in my current HVAC?
Yes—we retrofit HEPA and media filters to most forced-air systems. It’s a powerful upgrade for homes with allergy or asthma concerns.
Is there a solution for both winter dryness and summer humidity?
Yes—whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers work together to maintain the perfect balance, preventing dry skin in January and mold growth in August.
