The global transmission of COVID-19 has likely shifted your {regular|typical|daily] schedule upside down.

When times feel uncertain you can feel good in knowing your house is your safe retreat. You’re possibly spending more time there today. That’s why your indoor air quality is now more important than ever.

Did you realize we can install indoor air quality products in your residence that deliver hospital-grade filtration? These products can eliminate bacteria from your air, as well as allergens, odors and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Today’s houses are tightly sealed, which is good for energy efficiency. But it also means your inside air can be worse than the air outside. In fact, the EPA says it can be two to five times worse than outdoors. This may be problematic since we spend about 90% of our lifetime in a building.

There are many things that can lead to poor indoor air quality, like cleaning products and air fresheners. These could cause headaches and exasperate allergies and asthma.

There are several steps you can take to improve your air quality. Some include better air filters, an air purification system or an ultraviolet (UV) germicidal light.

Not certain which option is best for your house? Our expert pros can conduct an indoor air quality audit. Based on the results, we can then suggest the most fitting solution for your family’s unique needs.

Air Filtration

When comparing air filters, it’s essential to look at the MERV rating, or Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value. This gauges how successfully it filters air.

One of the most ordinary and lowest priced filters, flat fiberglass filters, are rated between 1 and 4 on the MERV system. Pleated filters are a little bit better, rated between 8 and 12.

We suggest upgrading to no less than MERV 13, like the HC13 Media Air Cleaner, for the most ideal results. This filter provides cleaner air while reducing energy consumption.

High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are considered the benchmark in air filtration, as they’re typically installed in hospitals. They’re effective at catching 99.97–99.99% of indoor pollutants, like pollen, pet dander and smoke.

Air Purification

Lennox offers some of the most advanced air purification units you can purchase. PureAir™ S and Healthy Climate™ PureAir Air Purification Systems deliver hospital-grade filtration while handling all categories of indoor air contaminants.

This powerful equipment can take care of:

• 99.9% of allergens, such as pollen, dust and pet dander.
• 95% of bacteria-sized particles, including ones that lead to strep throat.
• 50% of VOCs and odors within 24 hours.

UV Germicidal Lights

A UV germicidal light is placed on the inside of your comfort equipment. Its penetrating rays eradicate bacteria and mold within seconds.

If your family struggles with allergies or asthma, this system could provide relief. Especially if you live in an extremely hot climate where bacteria and mold grow quickly.

This light also offers an additional perk for your comfort system. It might help it work for a greater period of time and run more efficiently, since it keeps the internal pieces clean.

Our air quality engineers recommend installing one of these lights with an improved filter, such as our Carbon Clean 16® Media Air Cleaner, for the greatest results. This filter delivers industry-leading MERV 16 filtration plus carbon-coated fibers to catch particles in your home’s air. It completes this without restricting your HVAC equipment’s airflow.

Whole-Home Humidifiers

Having even humidity in your house can help keep your family healthy when it’s chilly. It can assist with sore throats, dry skin and cracked lips, among other cold weather bothers.

If you aren’t aware of what your residence’s humidity range is, we’ll determine it while we perform your indoor air quality audit. While the range changes based on outdoor temperatures, HVAC experts generally advise keeping it between 40–60 percent.

You can reach this optimum range by using a whole-home humidifier. This equipment typically accompanies your furnace or air handler to provide optimum humidity around your home. Some equipment, like the Healthy Climate® Whole-Home Power Humidifier, have a built-in fan to spread humidity while your heating system isn’t on.
