Air Ventilation
How did the quality of the air inside your home get so bad to begin with? Well, one of the main reasons that indoor air quality has begun to become such a big problem in recent years is that fact that modern homes are sealed up so tight to maximize energy efficiency of heating and air conditioning systems. With the proliferation of year round temperature control systems, people no longer have a need to open windows to let in fresh air.
In fact, it’s in our best financial interests not to have any fresh air coming into the house at all. After all, we’re paying to maintain the comfortable indoor environment and we don’t want to let all of that temperature controlled air escape.
What that means, though, is that these sealed indoor environments that we’ve created also keep all sorts of air contaminants sealed in. Without anywhere else to go, these particles continue to circulate throughout the house, causing all sorts of breathing problems and allergic reactions. They could be anything from smoke odors and gasses to pollen and pet dander. Whatever they are, you need to find a way to get rid of them.
Eliminating Particles & Cleaning Your Air
Luckily, there are now many options for cleaning the air inside our homes. Quite a few different particle trapping technologies have been developed in the last few years precisely for this reason, and depending on the types of particulate contaminants you’re having trouble with, you can select a system that will help to remedy your situation.
These technologies include mechanical air filters, ionization devices and even UV germicidal lights that can kill any bacteria or viruses that pass by them. Each of these devices has their own strengths and weaknesses. For instance, mechanical devices like HEPA filters are extremely effective at trapping particles that measure 0.3 microns or larger.
On the other hand, ionizers are more adept at picking out the smaller particles, but can have a harder time with the larger ones. And UV lights are not able to remove any particles at all, but they still serve a very important purpose because of their ability to kill the germs that could make your family sick.
