Tips and Tricks to Improve Your Indoor Air Quality
With spring fast approaching, that means that allergies are trailing close behind them. What do you do when you avoid the outside pollen but find yourself fighting with inside allergens at the same time? Well, Integrity AC & Heating LLC has some tricks that can keep you comfortable this spring season by improving your indoor air quality:
High efficiency air filters
To gain a bigger surface area and reduced resistance to air flow in your air conditioning filter, there are some kinds of filters that are four to five inches wide which are gathered and folded like an accordion. These filters allow for higher efficiency and upper MERV ratings, which make them able to get rid of the smallest particles of dirt while even neutralizing odors.
Humidifiers and dehumidifiers
Having excessive humidity and having not enough humidity in your home can both be problematic. To avoid mold build-up or respiratory issues, Integrity AC & Heating LLC offers whole-home humidity systems that are the ideal key to any indoor air quality issues.
One-inch air filters
Little filters should be changed every few months, based on pets, the external environment in Phoenix or the number of people staying in your home. When your filter is unclean and isn’t swapped out often, it works harder than it needs to and can cause poor air quality.
Germicidal Lights
Mold and bacteria grow quite effortlessly in modern, energy efficient homes. When these allergens mix with our breathing air, they can produce health and allergy issues for many people in your family. Ultraviolet lights kill the DNA in mold, fungi, microbes and spores in the coils of your system, keeping them from moving through the air in your home.
Electrostatic air filters
These filters create a durable static charge as air passes through them, collecting tiny particles that would otherwise be permitted through with disposable filters. Electrostatic filters are washable, but while they don’t need replacement, they need cleaning just as regularly.
Whole home solution
The PureAir Air Purification System is a whole-home cooling solution that uses photocatalytic oxidation and a high-level efficiency carbon filter to resist germs and microbes, airborne particles and chemical odors, amidst other indoor pollutants.
