Indianapolis HVAC experts offer tips to ensure healthy home IAQ
Trusted HVAC service providers Peterman Brothers help homeowners breathe easy as part of Asthma Awareness Month in May
INDIANAPOLIS, May 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Peterman Brothers, a leading HVAC and plumbing company serving the Greater Indianapolis area, wants Indianapolis homeowners to breathe easy and enjoy clean, healthy indoor air quality (IAQ) during May’s Asthma Awareness Month.
“We often see an increase in ozone and airborne irritants such as pollen and dander outdoors during the warmer months, and that can have a major impact on quality of life, especially for the 24 million Americans who have asthma,” said Chad Peterman, president of Peterman Brothers. “With summer fast approaching and May being Asthma Awareness Month, we’re encouraging our neighbors to take a few easy steps to mitigate poor IAQ and ensure a comfortable, healthy summer.”
Homeowners can follow these best practices to maintain outstanding IAQ and ensure their family’s health and comfort this summer:
- Keep your home clean: Dust, mop and vacuum regularly to prevent the accumulation of airborne irritants. If you have pets, keep them groomed.
- Manage moisture: Use vents, fans and dehumidifiers to keep the humidity relatively low. Indoor humidity above 50% can lead to moisture collecting in the walls or near pipes, appliances and fixtures. The resulting bacterial buildup could inhibit air quality.
- Maintain your HVAC: Change the air filters frequently and schedule regular maintenance to keep your home’s heating and cooling system effectively circulating air and preventing irritants from coming in. Consider installing an air purifier for added protection.
- Consult a professional: A trained and experienced HVAC professional can test your home’s air, evaluate your household’s needs and recommend a range of solutions, including HVAC maintenance, air duct cleaning and home humidifiers options.
“It takes consistency and awareness to maintain comfortable and healthy air quality in your home year-round,” Peterman said. “That’s not always easy. But we offer professional solutions that can empower you to take control of IAQ and have peace of mind that your family will enjoy the best possible environment in your home.”
Peterman Brothers offers comprehensive residential IAQ service and is available to help with any electrical, HVAC or plumbing needs. For more information, call (260) 201-3070 or visit https://www.petermanhvac.com/.

New bridge over 96th Street adds to Nickel Plate Trail connections
FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) — The Nickel Plate Trail pedestrian bridge over 96th Street is officially open.
It was being touted Friday as a major milestone for central Indiana’s growing trail system. The street is the Fishers-Indianapolis border.
Leaders called the project a critical connection point for the Nickel Plate Trail. The new bridge helps move the nearly 17-mile trail closer to its goal of connecting multiple counties through one continuous path.
The bridge also came with a 1.3-mile trail extension. A $4.5 million grant from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources made the bridge possible.
Dale Brier, deputy director of Indiana Department of Natural Resources, talked about the state’s Next Level Trails grant program. “Currently, we have 89 trail projects that that were funded with that money. Fifty-nine of those are complete. We’ve got 12 under construction. As of this opening, we have 167 miles of trail that have now been opened with that grant money.”
People who frequently take the trail for their daily exercises say they’re excited the bridge is finally open.
Alan Errichiello of the Fishers Running Club said, “Extending this down south into Indianapolis is a big game changer for us. It’ll add a lot of miles that we can easily get into.”
Resident Tracy Mundell said, “Trying to get to the other side was nearly impossible, so I think most people didn’t even attempt it. It’s going to be great, we can get over to the other side, and I’m anxious to see what’s over there.”
The final portion of the project, called the Clear Path project, remains under construction.
Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness, a Republican, said, “We need to double-down on that investment, and we know time and time again here in the city of Fishers that trail systems, the ability to get up and get out and get active, is such an important part in our culture of health, that an investment like this is critical.”
Once complete, local leaders say the goal is to provide a more safe and connected routes between Noblesville, Fishers, Indianapolis and other surrounding cities.
Resident Steve Mundell said, “It’s lovely. It’ll be real convenient to get across too.”

Good and bad from Colts’ 2026 NFLPA report card grades
What grades did the Indianapolis Colts earn on the 2026 NFLPA report cards?
The NFLPA is no longer able to make their annual report cards public. However, ESPN’s Kayln Kahler was able to obtain a copy of the reports following the 2025 NFL season, and the Indianapolis Colts were again around the middle of the pack.
In these report cards, players rate numerous aspects of the organizations they play for, from ownership to the training facilities and everything in between. According to Kahler, 1,759 players contributed to these grades.
So, where did the Colts end up this year relative to the rest of the NFL this year?
Overall, the Colts ranked 17th. Below is a breakdown of each individual grade they received.
- Treatment of Families: B
- Home Game Field: D
- Food/Dining Area: B
- Nutritionist/Dietician: A-
- Locker Room: C+
- Training Room: B
- Training Staff: B+
- Weight Room: B
- Strength Coaches: A
- Position Coaches: B
- Offensive Coordinator: B
- Defensive Coordinator: B+
- Special Teams Coordinator: B+
- Team Travel: B-
- Head Coach: A-
- General Manager: A
- Team Ownership: A
Of note, although the Colts haven’t been to the postseason in five years, Shane Steichen and Chris Ballard both received high marks.
Carlie Irsay Gordon, Kalen Jackson, and Casey Foyt earned an A in their first year as the primary owners.
The field at Lucas Oil Stadium received a very low mark, earning a D, while the locker room was given a C+. Those were the two lowest grades the Colts received.
Compared to the 2025 rankings, the Colts moved up two spots this year, after coming in at 19th last year.
The biggest jumps the Colts experienced came in the Food/Dining grade, which went from a C to a B. The Team travel grade also jumped from a D+ to a B-.
