INDOOR AIR QUALITY FAQs
Are all filters the same?
No! Air filters differ in design and efficiency, primarily measured by their MERV (Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value) rating. Higher MERV ratings indicate better performance in trapping small particles. Choosing the right filter depends on your specific air quality needs and the capabilities of your HVAC system.
How often should I change my filter?
The frequency of changing your air filter can impact your HVAC system's efficiency and the air quality in your home. For most residential settings, it's recommended to replace standard air filters every 90 days. However, if you have pets, allergies, or live in a high-pollen area, you might consider replacing filters more frequently, around every 30 to 60 days, to maintain optimal air quality and system performance.
What is the proper amount of indoor humidity?
Maintaining the right indoor humidity level is essential for both comfort and health. The optimal range falls between 30% and 50%, helping to prevent the growth of mold, dust mites, and other allergens. When humidity levels are too high or too low, they can contribute to respiratory issues and general discomfort. Integrating a whole-home humidifier into your HVAC system allows for precise humidity control, improving indoor air quality and overall well-being.
Can duct cleaning help with allergies?
Yes, removing dust, pollen, and other allergens from your ductwork can help reduce triggers for allergies and respiratory conditions.
How often should I have my air ducts cleaned?
It is generally recommended to have your air ducts professionally cleaned every 3 to 5 years. This frequency can vary based on factors such as pet ownership, household size, and external environmental conditions. Regular duct cleaning helps to ensure efficient system operation, extend the life of your HVAC system, and improve indoor air quality by removing accumulated dust, debris, and potential allergens.
How is duct cleaning performed?
Professional duct cleaning involves several steps using specialized tools, such as high-powered vacuums, brushes, and blowers. The process includes cleaning the supply and return air ducts, registers, grilles, and diffusers in each room. Proper duct cleaning also involves a thorough cleaning of the air handler, registers, grilles, fans, motors, housings, and coils of the HVAC system. This comprehensive cleaning can help enhance the efficiency of your HVAC system and significantly improve your indoor air quality. Learn More
