How Do Air Purifiers Work?
There are two types of air purifiers. The first uses a powerful UV light to neutralize harmful particles in the surrounding air. The second has a strong air filter that captures harmful particles as air passes through, preventing them from entering the air that is blowing through your home.
Both of these air purifiers are an excellent choice for boosting the indoor air quality of your home. They address particles like bacteria, allergens, and even bad odors. If you are concerned about your home’s indoor air quality, the first step is to schedule an indoor air quality test where our team can assess the types of harmful particles in your air and suggest the best whole-house air purifier for the job.
Why Not a Portable Model?
Portable air purifiers are great in specific situations. For example, if you have a studio apartment, a small air purifier that you plug into the wall may work just fine. The same goes for a small office or bedroom where you want to boost indoor air quality.
But if your space is larger than 500 to 700 square feet, you need to invest in a whole-house air purifier. Otherwise, only small portions of your home at any given time will have cleaner air. You’ll be left moving an air purifier from room to room, not to mention that the portable model sits on the floor and can get in the way.
A whole-house air purifier is installed inside of your existing HVAC system. It is out of sight and out of mind. The only maintenance you need to think about is changing out either the air filter or the UV light once each year. It’s a task that our team can complete during your regular AC maintenance appointment.
Benefits of Cleaner Air
You may be wondering if your indoor air quality is really that bad. The truth is that air inside of a home can hold up to five times the amount of pollution that you might find outside. This is because particles get trapped due to a lack of ventilation and consistent fresh air cycling in.
An air purifier helps you to stay healthier and experience fewer allergy symptoms. You are less likely to get sick as often and may even sleep better with better air to breathe.
