There are many types of filters available that can be added to your heating and cooling system to remove indoor airborne pollutants.

Based on the needs of your family, our professional service technicians can to recommend the most effective filter for your system and home.
Humidification
Many homes require the addition of moisture to maintain a comfortable environment. Low humidity levels can result in dry skin and hair, cracked hardwood floors and furniture, and damage to personal belongings. Whole-home humidifiers can be added to your house’s heating and cooling system to add the right amount of moisture to your air for ideal comfort.
Dehumidification
Too much humidity in your air can cause mold and mildew growth. These mold spores can get into your home’s air, and potentially cause illness in your family. A whole-home dehumidifier can be added to your heating and cooling system to help prevent mold and mildew growth.
UV germicidal lamps
UV germicidal lamps can destroy virtually any harmful microorganism that passes through your heating and cooling system, such as germs, viruses and bacteria, by breaking up their DNA structure. As a result, the microorganisms are destroyed and your indoor air quality can be improved.
