Tips and Tricks to Improve Your Indoor Air Quality
With spring just around the corner, that means that allergies are lurking close behind them. What do you do when you try to evade the outside pollen but find yourself fighting with interior allergens at the same time? Well, B & B Heating & Cooling has some tools that can keep you comfortable this spring season by bettering your indoor air quality:
High efficiency air filters
To gain a greater surface area and reduced resistance to air flow in your air conditioning filter, there are some types of filters that are four to five inches wide which are gathered and folded like an accordion. These filters allocate higher efficiency and better MERV ratings, which make them able to get rid of the littlest particles of dirt while even diffusing odors.
Humidifiers and dehumidifiers
Having a lot of humidity and having insufficient humidity in your home can both be tricky. To avoid mold build-up or respiratory issues, B & B Heating & Cooling offers whole-home humidity products that are the best answer to any indoor air quality issues.
One-inch air filters
Thinner filters should be changed every few months, based on pets, the external environment in Florissant or the number of people staying in your home. When your filter is dirty and isn’t changed often, it works harder than it needs to and can create poor air quality.
Germicidal Lights
Mold and bacteria spread quite effortlessly in contemporary, energy efficient homes. When these allergens mix with our breathing air, they can cause health and allergy issues for many folks in your family. Ultraviolet lights kill the DNA in mold, fungi, germs and spores in the coils of your system, withholding them from entering the air in your home.
Electrostatic air filters
These filters create a strong static charge as air travels through them, gathering tiny particles that would otherwise be let through with disposable filters. Electrostatic filters are washable, but while they don’t need replacement, they demand cleaning just as often.
Whole home solution
The PureAir Air Purification System is a whole-home cooling answer that uses photocatalytic oxidation and a top efficiency carbon filter to resist germs and microorganisms, airborne particles and chemical odors, among other indoor pollutants.
