Did you know that your HVAC equipment already has a few benefits in place to help you manage allergen accumulation in your home? Maintaining your current HVAC equipment will ensure that your HVAC system improves your indoor air quality and consistently performs at its peak. Air Filtration-Your HVAC system’s air filter is your best bet to keep allergens and pollutants from causing problems. We recommend that you replace the filter at least once every few months. 

Remember that the more the filter pulls out of the air, the dirtier it gets. Replacing it is a relatively minor investment in your comfort and health. Humidity Management- Your heating and cooling system also works to manage the indoor humidity. In the summer, your air conditioning keeps your home’s humidity at an ideal 30 to 50 percent. Moderate humidity control helps to minimize the growth of mildew or mold, which are also common allergens.

Ventilation-An added benefit from your HVAC system is whole home ventilation all year round. Ventilation draws fresh air from the outdoors, filters it for particles, and sends it to various parts of the system for conditioning. The process of heating or cooling cycles air through the home, which helps to keep your indoor air cleaner.
