Common questions
Indoor Air Quality FAQs
How can I improve the air quality in my Long Island home?
The most effective improvements include upgrading to a high-MERV air filter, installing a whole-home air purifier or UV germicidal light, and adding a whole-home humidifier or dehumidifier. We'll assess your home and recommend the right solution.
Do whole-home air purifiers really work?
Yes. Whole-home air purifiers installed in your HVAC system treat all the air circulating through your home, removing allergens, bacteria, viruses, and VOCs. They're far more effective than portable room units.
What is the ideal indoor humidity level?
The ideal indoor relative humidity is between 35% and 50%. Too low causes dry skin, static electricity, and respiratory irritation. Too high promotes mold growth and dust mites. A whole-home humidifier or dehumidifier keeps it in the right range year-round.
Are UV lights effective for HVAC systems?
Yes. UV germicidal lights installed in your air handler kill mold, bacteria, and viruses as air passes through your system. They're especially beneficial for households with allergy or asthma sufferers.
How often should I change my HVAC air filter?
Standard 1-inch filters should be changed every 1–3 months. Thicker media filters (4–5 inches) can last 6–12 months. If you have pets or allergies, change filters more frequently. A clogged filter reduces airflow and air quality.
