Did you know that Americans spend 70% of their lives indoors? The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) has ranked indoor air
pollution as a high priority public health risk (U.S. EPA, 1990).
Recently, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the National Heart,
Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) concluded that preventing exposure to
environmental allergens and irritants may help prevent asthma and
related breathing disorders (NHLBI, 1995)., Here is a sample of the
health and environmental effects of poor indoor air quality:, asthma,
rhinitis, sinusitis, and allergic respiratory disease, excessive mold,

flow), unpleasant fumes and odors.

Air Cleaners
Today, most of us spend a vast majority of our time indoors and
indoor air could be up to 100 times more polluted than the air outside?
It's true. The air we breathe in our homes is loaded with pollutants
like pollen, lung-damaging dust, pet hair, dander, dust mites, tobacco
smoke, spores, disease-causing bacteria and viruses. Visually you can
see, in a beam of sunlight, what represents only a fraction of the
millions of airborne contaminants inside your home. Modern air cleaners
can improve your health and comfort by keeping your entire home
cleaner, protect your furnishings and save you time and the aggravation
of continuous dusting and cleaning.
Here are the key benefits of whole house air filtration for your family and home:
- Health: The air in your home is littered
with virus-sized particles and bacteria, allergens, respirable dust and
other airborne contaminants. A Whole-House Air Cleaner can help provide
relief from these irritants—up to 40 times more efficiently than
standard furnace filters.
- Comfort: Ever
feel as if all you do is clean your home? Installing a whole-home air
cleaning system means you'll need to dust less, keeping your home and
its contents cleaner and more comfortable.
- Protection:
Did you know that build-up of dust and dirt can be damaging to your
heating and cooling equipment contributing to increased and expensive
maintenance or premature failure.
- Energy Savings:
Build-up of pollutants on your heating and cooling equipment can reduce
its efficiency by as much as 25%. A Whole-Home Air Cleaner can filter
out these particles and help maintain the efficiency of your central
heating and cooling system.
UltraViolet (UV) Germicidal Lamps
Don’t just remove harmful airborne contaminants, destroy them.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) has ranked
indoor air pollution as a high priority public health risk (U.S. EPA,
1990). Recently, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the National
Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) concluded that preventing
exposure to environmental allergens and irritants may help prevent
asthma and related breathing disorders (NHLBI, 1995).
Modern air sterilizers and whole-house duct cleaning can improve your
health and safety by eliminating molds, bacteria and germs from source
and recirculated air, keeping your entire home cleaner and healthier.
Mold and bacteria can easily grow on air conditioning coils as a result
of normal condensation that takes place during the cooling process. A
UV Germicidal Lamp is designed to kill that mold and bacteria by
breaking down its DNA, using a technology that has been trusted for
over 60 years to kill microorganisms in water purification, the food
processing industries, hospital operating rooms and more. By adding a
UV Lamp to your home comfort system, you reduce your family’s risk of
allergic reactions and illnesses as well as eliminate the foul odors
associated with such growth on the coil. Just think of the benefits of…
- Health: According to the
American College of Allergists, 50% of illnesses (such as colds and
flu, allergies and asthma) are caused or aggravated by mold, mildew,
bacteria and fungi.
- Comfort:
Wouldn’t it be great to enjoy a home free of odors that are caused by
the growth of mold and mildew in your heating and cooling system.
- Equipment Protection: The
accumulation of mold and mildew in your heating and cooling system
makes it work harder and longer. This can lead to untimely repairs as
well as the need to replace your system long before you should have to.
- Energy Savings:
A Whole-Home UV Germicidal Lamp allows your home comfort system to run
less often, for shorter periods of time and at peak efficiency. This
saves you money on your utility bills.

such as static electricity, peeling wallpaper, and cracks in drywall
and furniture.
