Home to regular dust storms and haboobs, the Arizona climate is not necessarily conducive to clean air inside your home. Outdoor contaminants like sand and dirt and indoor allergens like pet dander and dust compromise the air you and your family breathe. Consider these reasons why you should install a whole-home air purifier in your home in Gilbert.
Allergy Relief
Dust, dirt, pollen and other contaminants trigger allergy symptoms. If you suffer from allergies, you could experience symptoms like coughing, itchy eyes and a scratchy throat. An air purifier with a HEPA filter removes up to 99% of indoor allergens and helps relieve most or all of your symptoms.
Headache and Sinus Relief
Poor air quality causes some people to suffer from frequent headaches and sinus congestion. The air in your home in Gilbert might have high levels of chemicals from perfumes and cleaning products, which trigger headaches in people who are sensitive to artificial scents. Eliminating chemicals and artificial scents from the air in your home helps relieve headaches and sinus pain.
Asthma Relief
Airborne contaminants contribute to asthma attacks. People with asthma experience symptoms like wheezing and shortness of breath because allergens like pet dander and dust restrict their airways. If someone in your household has asthma, you may lower the risk of that person suffering asthma attacks by installing an air purifier.
Better Sleep
Cleaner indoor air contributes to better sleep. Relieving symptoms like congestion and headaches could help you fall and stay asleep. You’ll breathe deeper and experience fewer coughing spells that wake you up in the middle of the night.
Fewer Colds and Flus
A whole-house air purifier removes airborne viruses and bacteria. These germs accumulate faster during the fall and winter when colder weather prevents you from opening your windows. Lowering your risk of infection can start by hiring one of our technicians to install an air purifier in your home.
VOC Removal
Whole-home air purifiers remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from your home’s air. These compounds include:
- Formaldehyde
- Benzene
- Toluene
- Acetone
- Xylene
Paint, adhesives and varnishes contain VOCs. Likewise, building materials like plywood have formaldehyde in them. Cigarette smoking also releases benzene into your home’s air. A whole-house air purifier eliminates these dangerous compounds.
Mildew Growth Prevention
High humidity inside your home creates an ideal environment for mildew to grow. Mildew makes your home smell musty and unpleasant. It also compromises the air quality and bothers people with indoor allergies. Purifying the air can remove mold spores and make the home more resistant to mildew and other fungal growth.
Odor Elimination
Dirty laundry, trash, cigarette smoking and cooking create odors in your home. Products like scented candles and room deodorizing sprays only make the air quality worse. An air purifier removes odors and makes your house smell better.
Smoke Elimination
As appealing as a wood-burning fireplace is, it also releases smoke into your home’s air. People with indoor allergies and respiratory sensitivities often find smoke difficult to tolerate. Air purification equipment removes much of the airborne smoke in your home and lets you enjoy your fireplace.
Pet Friendliness
As much as you love your cat or dog, you may not appreciate its dander and fur circulating in your home’s air. These allergens accumulate in your vents, creating clogs and reducing airflow.
They also bother people with allergies and cause skin rashes and itchy eyes. Purifying the air makes your home more pet-friendly and safer for people with allergies or respiratory issues to live in or visit.
Energy Efficiency
Purifying the air helps your HVAC system run more efficiently. It reduces dust and particles that clog your filters and vents. It also promotes better airflow and lets your central comfort system distribute air evenly throughout your house. Less energy use also lowers your monthly heating and cooling bills.
Better Temperature Control
Improved airflow from air purification helps your heating and cooling system maintain a steady temperature in your house. You avoid some parts of the house feeling warmer or cooler than others. It promotes consistent whole-house comfort.
Lower Carbon Footprint
Improved HVAC efficiency lowers your home’s carbon footprint. By purifying the air inside your house, you could lessen the negative impact your home and its heating and cooling system have on the local environment.
Longer HVAC Lifespan
Because it runs more efficiently, your HVAC system could last longer. Better air quality reduces wear and tear on your heating and cooling unit. It also lowers the maintenance your unit needs to work effectively.
Cleaner Furniture
Dust, dirt and other debris circulating in your home’s air can land on and make your furniture and floors dirty. You might have to dust and polish surfaces like your counters, shelves and dining room table every few days to keep them clean. You may also have to sweep, mop and vacuum your floors frequently. Removing these particles from the air keeps your furniture and floors cleaner.
Whole-Home Purification
An air purifier cleans the air in your entire house. It functions effectively even if you live in a multi-story or expansive home. It can also purifies the air in outlying areas like your attached garage.
Quiet Operation
When you install this equipment in your home, you don’t have to worry about it being too noisy and disrupting your daily routine or sleep. At A/C & Plumbing Doctors, we have whole-air purifiers that operate quietly.
When yours runs, you should not hear it make much or any noise. You won’t have to talk louder or turn up your TV or radio volume because of it.
Solid Investment Return
A whole-house air purifier offers a solid investment return. With proper care, yours could last for as long as 15 years. Hiring one of our HVAC technicians to maintain it professionally once a year helps it last longer. Our technicians can also repair minor issues to prevent larger and more expensive damages later.
Higher Home Value
A whole-house air purifier could boost your home’s value. It could also become a selling point if you list your home for sale. Buyers may find it more attractive to buy a house with an air purifying system in it.
Extend Your Lifespan
Extending the lifespan of your HVAC system isn’t the only longevity benefit; you may be extending your own. By removing irritating particles from the air, you may also be reducing the inflammation that stresses and ages your biological system. Removing second-hand smoke may lessen your chance of contracting lung cancer.
