Particulates & Compounds in the Air We Breath
There are many different
air conditioning and heating furnace filters, indoor air quality, furnace filters
Medium Efficiency Filter
types of HVAC filters as described on the previous page. The most common type of HVAC furnace filters is the fiberglass disposable filter that you buy at most hardware or retail stores. Other types of HVAC furnace filters include the metal or plastic fiber type filters which are washable. These HVAC filters save you money because they are washable but some are not as efficient at filtering the air as the disposable kind. By far, in my opinion from my experience in the filed, the most efficient filters are the Electronic Air Cleaners if used in conjunction with a mechanical filtering media and the Ultra-Violet air cleaner. There are other high efficiency HVAC air cleaning media's that you can have installed by a contractor that will help keep your home's air as clean and dust free as most electronic air cleaners. The filtering media's are less expensive than the electronic air cleaners but have a higher maintenance cost associated with them because they also have disposable filter media's inside them. There many different things in the air that we are totally unaware of. Among them are:
* Pollen
* Lint
* Mildew
* Mold
* Fungi
* Virus's
* Spores
* Dirt
* Pet Odors
* Dust
* Dander
* Dust Mites
* Smoke
* Cooking Odors
* Formaldehyde
* Bathroom Odors
* Chemical Smells
* Tobacco Odors
* Many Other Volatile Organic Compounds
With the advent of SARS, anthrax, avian flu (bird flu), biological, and chemical terrorism, filtering media's and refining the air we breathe has become a necessity for healthy living. Granted, it takes the best of HVAC filtering media's and technology to stop the aforementioned hazards, but the better we can filter the air in our living spaces the better we protect ourselves and our health from harmful particulants and compounds. It is a fact that certain dwellings cause people to become or remain ill. When an indoor air quality program is instituted in these environments, people begin to recover from illnesses that seemed insurmountable. The air we breathe inside of buildings can be toxic to our health and needs to be addressed before our health is affected in a negative way. You will find indoor air quality solutions on these pages that will help you with the sick building syndrome. Take it seriously now and breathe easier and healthier later.
