The worldwide transmission of COVID-19 has likely flipped your regular routine into a jumble.

When things feel uncertain you can take peace in knowing your home is your safe retreat. You’re possibly spending more time there nowadays. As a result, your indoor air quality is now more critical than ever.

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

Today’s residences are securely closed, which is good for energy efficiency. But it also means your inside air might be worse than the air outside. In fact, the EPA says it can be two to five times worse than outdoors. This can lead to issues since we spend about 90% of our lifetime indoors.

There are many things that can cause poor indoor air quality, like cleaning products and air fresheners. These may result in headaches and irritate allergies and asthma.

There’s a combination of things you can do to enhance your air quality. Some include enhanced air filters, an air purification system or an ultraviolet (UV) germicidal light.

Unsure which solution is right for your residence? Our skilled technicians can complete an indoor air quality audit. Based on the results, we can then recommend the ideal choice for your family’s distinct needs.

Air Filtration

When browsing air filters, it’s essential to consider the MERV rating, or Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value. This measures how successfully it filters air.

One of the most average and most economical filters, flat fiberglass filters, are rated between 1 and 4 on the MERV register. Pleated filters are slightly better, graded between 8 and 12.

We suggest getting at minimum MERV 13, for instance the HC13 Media Air Cleaner, for the optimal outcome. This filter delivers cleaner air while limiting energy needs.

High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are regarded as the gold standard in air filtration, since they’re frequently used in hospitals. They’re effective at capturing 99.97–99.99% of indoor pollutants, including pollen, pet dander and smoke.

Air Purification

Lennox has some of the best air purification units you can get. PureAir™ S and Healthy Climate™ PureAir Air Purification Systems deliver hospital-grade filtration while managing all types of indoor air contaminants.

These powerful units can eliminate:

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

UV Germicidal Lights

A UV germicidal light is placed within your comfort system. Its powerful rays wipe out bacteria and mold within seconds.

If your family suffers from allergies or asthma, this unit might provide relief. Especially if you live in a humid climate where bacteria and mold flourish.

This light also provides an additional perk for your comfort unit. It might help it run longer and run more efficiently, as it keeps the internal components clean.

Our air quality engineers suggest installing one of these lights with an upgraded filter, such as our Carbon Clean 16® Media Air Cleaner, for the greatest effect. This filter delivers industry-leading MERV 16 filtration combined with carbon-coated fibers to remove particles from your home’s air. It fulfills this without restricting your comfort unit’s airflow.

Whole-Home Humidifiers

Getting correct humidity in your residence may help keep your family in good health when it’s chilly. It can help with sore throats, itchy skin and peeling lips, among added cold weather bothers.

If you aren’t aware of what your house’s humidity percentage is, we’ll measure it while we perform your indoor air quality audit. While the range changes based upon outdoor temperatures, HVAC pros usually advise keeping it between 40–60 percent.

You can accomplish this optimal range with a whole-home humidifier. This equipment typically accompanies your furnace or air handler to provide optimal humidity throughout your home. Some units, like the Healthy Climate® Whole-Home Power Humidifier, contain a built-in fan to move humidity while your comfort unit isn’t on.
