Importance of Indoor Air Filtration
Indoor air is more likely to be polluted than outdoor air. Proper filtration can remove household dust, insecticide, dust mites, pollen, mold spores, fungi, bacteria, pet dander, cooking smoke and grease and tobacco smoke particles. Filtration and ventilation greatly improves energy savings, prevents dust buildup and helps protect and prolong the operating efficiency of central heating and cooling systems.
Humidity levels should be maintained between 30% and 50%. Daily activities such as cleaning, cooking and showering can add up to 25 pounds of moisture to your home environment. Excess moisture decreases productivity, makes you feel overheated, and fosters mold and musty odors. Dust mites and other insects thrive in a hot, wet environments. All this is very bad news for asthma and allergy sufferers. Whole-home dehumidifiers work with your air conditioner or independently to remove moisture and maintain ideal humidity levels. You’ll feel, breathe, and sleep better, and save money on cooling costs.
