Humidifiers, UV Purifiers, Air Filters Dehumidifiers. Can Your Houston Air Conditioning System Reduce Allergies and Asthma?
According to studies, in humid climates like our Houston air conditioning repair service area, biological air pollutants such as animal dander, dust mites, and other allergens affects your health more than any other indoor pollutant. The university further goes on to suggest that biological air pollutants are best eliminated through the use of systems that can provide sound dehumidification and controlled cleaned fresh air. These systems may include humidifiers, purifiers, filters and dehumidifiers.
Houston Whole House Humidifier
Use whole house humidifiers in Houston, TX to control the humidity in your home by adding moisture to the air in the winter. Whole house humidifiers are installed in your furnace and require very little maintenance except that you may need to clean the mineral deposits at regular intervals. Because whole house humidifiers draw water directly from your plumbing system, there is never a need to refill the whole house humidifier with water. Whole house humidifiers include drum, spray mist and flow through systems. Compared to portable humidifiers, whole house humidifiers are cheap, efficient and quiet to operate.
Whole House Ultraviolet Air Purifiers
Whole house ultraviolet air purifiers clean the air in your Houston home or office by using the energy in the UV light to kill harmful organisms in the air. Organisms that exacerbate allergies and asthma such as mildew, smoke, dust mites, and dander are trapped in the ultra violet rays. The purifier cleans the air containing these and other harmful organisms then returns purified air to your living or working area. In addition to eliminating allergy and asthma trigger, the ultraviolet air purifier process disinfects the air and therefore prevents the spread of airborne diseases. Additionally ultra violet air purifiers give off negative hydroxyl ions which clears the air of pollutants.
Whole House HEPA Air Filter
Whole house HEPA air filters installed by our Houston air conditioning repair technicians capture particles such as
dust, pollen, dander, dust mite and cockroach allergens. Whole house HEPA air filters or mechanical filters force air through the filters and thus traps the allergens and particles before you inhale them. There is some concern regarding using mechanical filters because according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) the particles that HEPA air filters are intended to trap settles quickly making it difficult for the mechanical filter to completely clean the air.
Houston Whole House Dehumidifier
Whole house dehumidifiers extract moisture from the air pulled through your return ducts and returns dry air throughout your home. This process is especially helpful in the southern states where it is very climate is very humid. Whole house dehumidifiers can work with your air conditioner which only aids humidity during the cooling seasons, or the dehumidifier can work independently. A whole house dehumidifier can help to retard mold and mildew, odors, and mold bacteria and dust mites—known allergy instigators.
