Air Purifiers in Lee’s Summit
To conserve energy, homeowners throughout Lee’s Summit often create airtight living environments. While maintaining a tight home envelope keeps conditioned air from escaping, it also traps airborne contaminants inside. These contaminants enter your living space via sump pump basins, when people open and close doors, and during the use of fuel-burning appliances.
New paint, flooring adhesives, and other building materials constantly off-gas harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Burning scented candles, cooking indoors, and using chemical-laden cleaning sprays or personal care products also add contaminants to the indoor air.
With our complete range of IAQ services, you can combat these and many other pollutants in your home:
- Air quality testing
- Humidity regulation
- Air cleaning and sanitization
- HVAC air duct sealing
We begin our IAQ services by identifying the areas where indoor air quality issues exist. You might have leaky air ducts, elevated or insufficient humidity, or inordinate amounts of particulate matter.
Air purifiers support the ongoing filtration that standard HVAC air filters supply. We install these integrated IAQ accessories in the air handler or in HVAC ducting. Air scrubbers and purifiers can remove excess particulate matter, including the smallest allergens, and help alleviate common low-IAQ symptoms, including coughing, poor sleep quality, nasal irritation, and recurring headaches. Air purification systems equipped with UV lights neutralize and deactivate harmful pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and mold.
According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), homeowners should maintain indoor humidity levels between 40% and 60%. According to the CDC, when indoor humidity exceeds 60%, mold and mildew thrive. Integrated dehumidifiers help HVAC systems extract excess humidity. This keeps interiors from feeling muggy and oppressive. Indoor air can get too dry, especially in winter. A lack of humidity can cause sleeping problems and dry out wood floors and furniture, leading to cracking. Adding a humidifying and dehumidifying product protects the health of your household members and your furniture, wood building elements, and more from overly dry air or moisture-related damage.
Our ductwork inspection and sealing services ensure that conditioned air can’t escape and that dirt, dust, insects, and other pests can’t infiltrate them. With duct sealing, you can protect your IAQ, prevent air loss, and enjoy lower heating and cooling costs.
