What does an air purification system do?

June 15, 2018

Everyone wants a clean home, right? And while a clean home may just mean a house that is tidy and wiped down, there is another item that you might not be observing—the air inside your house. One of the main factors that impacts the quality of air in your house is the amount of pollutants that are floating throughout in the air. The pollutants can come from pets or get into the home through open windows or doors. We usually focus our concern on the quality of the air outside, but it’s important to evaluate if you should take steps to improve your indoor air quality.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency, poor indoor air quality can be the source for several health problems and could potentially cause dizziness, headaches and nausea. It can also result in further aggravation for individuals suffering from allergies or asthma. Even regular cleaning and vacuuming won’t entirely rid your house of these pollutants, so it may be time to consider a better strategy. But don’t stress out! Van Haaften Plumbing & Heating does have solutions to help you improve your indoor air quality.

A potential option is an air purification system. Simply put, these systems take away particles, germs and odors from the air in a room. This helps you breathe easier and keeps a healthier home. By removing the airborne dust particles, you lower the amount of exposure your respiratory system has to them.

There is different technology when it comes to air purification systems and our experts can walk you through your options and what will be the ideal solution for your needs. There are air purification systems that are intended to work with your central heating and cooling system to improve the air throughout your entire space.
