These factors alone, however, aren&#8217;t enough to maintain good indoor air quality in your home.<\/p>\n<p>Because your HVAC system recirculates air within your home and the filters in your system can only do so much, pollutants like these can degrade your home&#8217;s air quality:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dust and dust mites<\/li>\n<li>Mold and mold spores<\/li>\n<li>Bacteria and viruses<\/li>\n<li>Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)<\/li>\n<li>Pet dander<\/li>\n<li>Pollen<\/li>\n<li>And more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With these pollutants contributing to poor-quality air, you and your family can experience all types of discomfort, from allergy attacks and respiratory issues to more frequent illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>This is where indoor air quality solutions, like a whole-home air purifier or air filtration system, come into play.<\/p>\n<p>IAQ products are specifically designed to trap and remove \u2014 or destroy outright \u2014 the pollutants in your home&#8217;s air.

Air delivery rates (CADR) is another key measure that tells you how many cubic feet your filter can purify per minute.<\/p>\n<p>High-efficiency particulate air filters are unique in this market. They can effectively filter viruses, but only if you choose the correct size for your space. Look for a HEPA unit that can handle a size range of 0.1\u20131 um.\u00a0Air filters can&#8217;t achieve full efficiency unless replaced regularly, so always follow the manufacturer&#8217;s replacement directions.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><div class=\"card bg-transparent border-0 rounded-0 mb-0 px0\">\n                <div id=\"headingOnecollapse27459\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse27459\" aria-controls=\"collapse27459\" class=\"card-header  bg-transparent py-0 px-3 collapsed\">\n                       <h3 class=\"mb-0 py-3 cursor-pointer d-flex align-items-center justify-content-between  cursor-pointer\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse27459\" aria-controls=\"collapse27459\">What is a MERV rating?<i class=\"icon-chevron-down  float-right  ml-5 bc_text_20 bc_line_height_28 bc_color_quaternary\" ><\/i><\/h3>\n                <\/div>\n                <div id=\"collapse27459\" class=\"border-dark-left-right px-3 collapse  \" aria-labelledby=\"headingOne\" data-parent=\"#accordion85407\">\n                    <div class=\"card-body p-0 pt-3\"><\/p>\n<p>The MERV acronym stands for minimum efficiency reporting value. It&#8217;s become the measurement of thumb for rating the quality of air filtration. The higher the MERV rating, the higher its capacity to trap particles. Even so, choosing the highest MERV rating you can afford isn&#8217;t a solution.<\/p>\n<p>Higher MERV ratings coexist with reduced airflow, so you&#8217;ll need to select the correct MERV range for your purpose. A furnace filter, for example, should have a MERV of between 8 and 13. Most homes only require a rating of 6 to 13. This number will balance out efficiency and airflow so your system can process your square footage properly.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><div class=\"card bg-transparent border-0 rounded-0 mb-0 px0\">\n                <div id=\"headingOnecollapse99113\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse99113\" aria-controls=\"collapse99113\" class=\"card-header  bg-transparent py-0 px-3 collapsed\">\n                       <h3 class=\"mb-0 py-3 cursor-pointer d-flex align-items-center justify-content-between  cursor-pointer\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#collapse99113\" aria-controls=\"collapse99113\">What makes HEPA filters different?<i class=\"icon-chevron-down  float-right  ml-5 bc_text_20 bc_line_height_28 bc_color_quaternary\" ><\/i><\/h3>\n                <\/div>\n                <div id=\"collapse99113\" class=\"border-dark-left-right px-3 collapse  \" aria-labelledby=\"headingOne\" data-parent=\"#accordion85407\">\n                    <div class=\"card-body p-0 pt-3\"><\/p>\n<p>HEPA filters use carbon and fine glass threads that have a diameter of less than one micron. These glass threads are compressed and knotted together to form a dense, highly effective surface. HEPA systems can filter more than just carbon-based particles.<\/p>\n<p>They make easy work of mold spores, certain viruses, and dust. They&#8217;ll even improve odors and remove a limited number of gasses. You should combine your HEPA filtration with other technologies and carbon pre-filters to remove volatile inorganic compounds and all viruses.<\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No matter how perfect your home&#8217;s temperature may be, your comfort at home can suffer when you&#8217;re breathing poor-quality air.
