Certified Installation

HEPA Filters

Description: High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters are known for capturing particles as small as 0.3 microns with an impressive 99.97% efficiency.
Effectiveness: Ideal for trapping allergens like dust, mold spores, and bacteria—making them a top choice for those with allergies or respiratory issues.
Considerations: HEPA filters can increase air resistance, so it’s important to confirm your HVAC system can handle the strain.

MERV Filters

Description: Rated on a scale from 1 to 16, MERV filters capture a range of particles depending on their rating. The higher the MERV rating, the finer the filtration.
Effectiveness: Great for snaring common indoor pollutants such as pollen, pet dander, and dust mites.
Considerations: While higher MERV ratings offer better filtration, they may reduce airflow if your HVAC system isn’t equipped to manage the resistance.

UV Air Purifiers

Description: These systems use UV-C light to neutralize airborne microorganisms, including bacteria and viruses.
Effectiveness: Excellent for controlling pathogens and preventing mold growth within the HVAC system.
Considerations: Often paired with traditional filters for air purification, since UV alone won’t capture dust or allergens.

Electrostatic Air Filters

Description: Use an electric charge to attract and trap particles, similar to a magnet.
Effectiveness: Effective at capturing larger particles like dust and pet hair, as well as some smaller contaminants.
Considerations: Washable and reusable, making them a cost-effective option over time.
