The HVAC system you choose for the home has a significant effect on your interior air quality. The cooling and heating system provides most of the ventilation and air circulation, especially in homes with central climate control, where doors and windows are typically kept closed. But is it keeping your air quality high? To improve the air quality in the home, consider a whole-home HVAC system.

HVAC SystemIt’s all about filtration and ventilation. To be as energy-efficient as possible, most modern builds and professionally retrofitted homes with central HVAC systems are sealed—air is circulated from within the home to the heating or cooling unit and then back into the living space. There’s just one filter, and it’s often not very tightly fitted or high-quality.

However, this causes stale, dusty air. Most HVAC systems have an air filter incorporated into them, but a whole-home HVAC has a more advanced air filtration system, so the home stays sealed and has fresh, clean air always. Many systems also offer washable and deodorizing filters, and use filtration systems that benefit people with asthma and those living in areas with high pollution.

Even if you change the HVAC system’s filter every six weeks, the typical filter can’t come close to the benefits offered by a whole-home system, which focuses on air quality while maintaining the energy efficiency of your home.
