For Seniors and Veterans
Many people spend the bulk of their time indoors, where pollution is often far more concentrated than it is outside. Those pollutants can cause a wide range of short- and long-term adverse health effects.
If you’re concerned about pollution in your home, our professionals at Associated Heating & Air recommend indoor air quality testing in Placentia, CA. Discover what indoor air quality challenges you face. You can then explore the solutions.
Indoor air quality testing reveals issues with ventilation that can lead to higher concentration levels of contaminants. We can identify problems with household allergens. Our team can also detect issues with fuel-burning appliances that can give off carbon monoxide and other toxic gases.
Often, better indoor air quality begins with the HVAC system. We recommend seasonal tune-ups. That includes a heating tune-up in the fall and a cooling tune-up in the spring. Consider upgrading to a high-quality pleated air filter. Choose as high a MERV rating as your system supports. Many modern systems allow up to MERV 13. A MERV-13 filter can trap many of the household allergens that would otherwise pass through the system.
For more comprehensive air purification, we recommend a whole-house air purifier. The purifiers we offer can filter all the air in your home multiple times an hour. The U.S. CDC recommends four air changes an hour at a minimum. Many of the whole-home systems on the market provide five ACH or higher.
Traditional in-duct air purifiers have mechanical filtration, such as a high-efficiency particulate air filter. HEPA filters remove more than 99% of particles. That includes the fine and ultrafine particles modern medicine associates with many heart and lung diseases. These systems often have activated charcoal as well. Activated charcoal absorbs odors, gases, and chemicals.
You can install an in-duct ultraviolet lamp in addition. A UV lamp can neutralize most of the bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens in the home. Relative humidity also plays an important role in indoor air quality. A dehumidifier can help you keep RH lower in summer. A humidifier can help you keep it higher in winter.
