Here at Marsh Heating and Air Conditioning, we aim not only to provide you with systems that improve your home comfort. We also offer pieces of equipment that have the technology to keep you safe against airborne diseases. Because of COVID-19 and its deadly effects, there has been an increase in people’s awareness of their indoor air quality.
As your preferred HVAC company in New Brighton MN, we work with top manufacturers to help you establish a home that is both comfortable and safe.
Common Causes of Poor Indoor Air Quality
Cigarette smoke, which contains over 4,000 chemicals (most of which are cancer-causing), is one of the primary indoor air pollutants in U.S. homes. Exposure to secondhand smoke increases the risk of developing cancer by as much as 30 percent. Smoke causes the blood to become stickier, adds LDL or “bad” cholesterol, and damages the blood vessels’ lining. When ignored, these irregularities can lead to a heart attack or stroke.
Also, household chemicals such as paint can cause health problems when inhaled in high concentrations, especially the initial coat. Household paints contain volatile organic compounds that contaminate your indoor air. Even if the smell is gone by the time the paint is dry, it can still be dangerous to your health. Some cancer-causing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in household paint include methylene chloride and benzene.
Moreover, scientists have examined 25 different personal care products that have been found to produce a variety of potentially harmful chemical byproducts. These products include detergents, hand sanitizers, shampoos, soaps, lotions, and deodorants.
To keep your family safe from these household contaminants, consider investing in media filters.
Understanding Media Filters
Every HVAC system is equipped with a filter that keeps dust and particulates out of your unit. Unfortunately, that’s about the only positive aspect it offers. Regular filters are not designed to capture most invisible airborne particles, such as viruses and bacteria.
What standard filters cannot provide, media filters effortlessly deliver. They offer excellent filtration performance you would want for your family. These filters ensure outstanding air filtration with minimal maintenance. You only have to change them once or twice per year.
