Trusted Air Quality Solutions
Air quality has come into sharp focus recently due to the potential health implications it carries. However, not only does it affect your health but also how your heating and cooling systems work. With poor air quality, your comfort systems can require more service, and it may have a shortened service life.
When we think about air quality, this goes well beyond the industrial and automotive contaminants that usually come to mind. Rather, there are a host of particles floating around in your air that you may not have considered.
Common household air contaminants include:
- Particulate matter like dust
- Volatile organic compounds
- Biological contaminants like pollen
- Pet dander
- Bacteria
- Viruses
The goal of improving your air quality is not removing these contaminants entirely. Unfortunately, that’s not possible without a sealed space. However, you can greatly reduce the concentration of these contaminants with the right approach.
One of the first things to look at is the condition of your HVAC system. These contaminants collect on system components and collect throughout your ducts. Ensuring your system is cleaned regularly, including periodic duct cleaning, removes a lot of these particles from circulation.
Humidity plays a vital role in controlling your air quality as well. The EPA suggests the ideal indoor humidity is 30%-50%. Anything more and you encourage biological particle growth. Anything less keeps particles in the air longer.
Then filtering and purification play the next role in controlling these pollutants. You need to ensure you’re using the right air filter in your system. Then consider adding either system-wide or individual room filters.
The right air purifier in your Lehi home will then help render what particles may be left inert, preventing them from completing their cellular function. These systems are both stand-alone or system-wide and may include ultraviolet or electrostatic purifiers.
