Indoor air quality is just that – the quality of the air in our homes, and Lee’s Heating and Air is dedicated to making your home a place that is safe and comfortable
What Causes Indoor Air Problems?
Indoor pollution sources that release gases or particles into the air are the primary cause of indoor air quality problems in homes.
Inadequate ventilation can increase indoor pollutant levels by not bringing in enough outdoor air to dilute emissions from indoor sources and by not carrying indoor air pollutants out of the home. High temperature and humidity levels can also increase concentrations of some pollutants.
Dangers of Indoor Air Pollution
Not many people realize but the air you breathe in your home or office may be potentially harmful to your health. Did you know that indoor air is, in fact, more polluted than outdoor air? This is especially true during the cold months.
Sometimes people don’t realize that the nagging symptoms they are feeling may be caused by the air they breathe in.
Indoor air pollution has often been linked to a variety of adverse health effects including frequent cold, sore throat, headaches, skin rashes, respiratory problems, eye irritation, chronic cough, dizziness, memory lapses and lethargy.
Long term exposure to indoor air pollutions is also linked to increased risk of cancer. A study by the Environmental Protection Agency shoed that on an average a person spends about 90 percent of his or her time indoors. Infants are the most affected by indoor pollution as they are exposed to the pollution for nearly 24 hours a day.
Air Filtration Systems
To combat the effects of these pollutants we carry several different lines to help make the air you breathe in your home safe and pollutant free
Accuclean
The Accuclean Air filtration system can easily be added to most ducted systems to replace the existing filtration system. This system sits next to or under the existing furnace or air handler. It removes up to 99.90 percent of allergens from the filtered air and catches particles down to 0.1 microns in size. It delivers clean air and the reusable filter can be easily cleaned by vacuuming.
Air Scrubber
Air Scrubber Plus® with ActivePureTM technology, cleans, freshens and purifies the air using specialized UV light waves along with a proprietary catalytic process. It is installed directly into your existing duct work directly above your HVAC’s air handler. It is not visible inside your home and requires no maintenance.
Aprilaire Media Filters
With state-of-the-art filter media, Aprilaire whole-home air filtration delivers exceptionally clean air throughout your home at an affordable price. It is installed directly into your exiting HVAC system and provides more than 10 times the filtering media used in standard 1″ furnace filters. This unit prevents dust build up, and maximizes the life of your heating and cooling equipment and depending on home environment can last up to a year before replacement is necessary.
