Indoor Air Quality in Des Moines: what's different
Indoor Air Quality work in Des Moines follows the local climate. Long heating seasons dry indoor air and tight homes can trap pollutants. Humidification, ventilation and sealed ducts in basements and attics are common improvements.
A common Des Moines pattern: dry winter air. Long heating seasons make indoor air very dry, leading to static shocks, cracked woodwork and discomfort without a whole-home humidifier.

The City of Des Moines Permit and Development Center handles mechanical permits. Iowa licenses HVAC and mechanical professionals through the state Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board, so ask for the license number.
