Air Quality Index
Taking measures to improve indoor air quality in your home has become more important than ever before. According to the EPA Americans on average, spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors, where the concentrations of pollutants are often 2 to 5 times higher than typical outdoor concentrations
So, how do you improve indoor air quality? You would think changing filters regularly would greatly help improve indoor air quality. That’s not always correct. Did you know filters were first created to filter the unit not to filter the air we breathe. Filters have come along way, and some do offer some indoor air quality benefits. So, how do you pick a filter? This is where the MERV ratings come in. Anything over a MERV 13 will capture air borne particles as small as .3 microns. With that said the higher the MERV rating will greatly reduce airflow and unit performance.

Duct Cleaning
The most effective way to clean residential air ducts and ventilation systems is to employ source removal methods of cleaning and dislodging the dirt, dust, and debris while your system is under negative pressure through the use of a specialized, powerful, and highly efficient HEPA collection unit as described in the NADCA ACR-2021. This is a contained and clean process. While the negative air machine draws air through the system, devices are inserted into the ducts to dislodge any debris that might be stuck to interior surfaces. We clean the entire trunk line from beginning to end in each vent. Debris can then travel down the ducts to the collection unit, which removes it from the system and the home.
