Tips and Tricks to Improve Your Indoor Air Quality

With spring just around the corner, that means that allergies are trailing close behind them. What do you do when you avoid the open-air pollen but find yourself fighting with inside allergens at the same time? Well, Franklin's Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc has some tricks that can keep you cozy this spring season by enhancing your indoor air quality:

High efficiency air filters

To receive a bigger surface area and smaller 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 allocate higher efficiency and higher MERV ratings, which make them able to eliminate the littlest particles of dirt while even diffusing odors.

Humidifiers and dehumidifiers

Having excessive humidity and having insufficient humidity in your home can both be tricky. To steer clear of mold build-up or respiratory issues, Franklin's Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc offers whole-home humidity systems that are the perfect key to any indoor air quality issues.

One-inch air filters

Little filters should be swapped out every few months, contingent on pets, the outside environment in Oxford or the number of people living in your home. When your filter is grimy and isn’t replaced often, it works harder than it needs to and can cause poor air quality.

Germicidal Lights

Mold and bacteria grow quite rapidly in modern, energy efficient homes. When these allergens mix with our breathing air, they can generate health and allergy issues for many folks in your family. Ultraviolet lights kill the DNA in mold, fungi, bacteria and spores within the coils of your system, repressing them from moving through the air in your home.

Electrostatic air filters

These filters generate a durable static charge as air goes through them, accumulating tiny particles that would otherwise be allowed through with disposable filters. Electrostatic filters are washable, but while they don’t need replacement, they need cleaning just as frequently.

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 combat germs and bacteria, airborne particles and chemical odors, amidst other indoor pollutants.
