Top Air Purifiers for 2013
When it comes to protecting your family's health, you probably think of doctor visits, good hygiene practices and maintaining a clean home. Have you ever considered that your indoor air quality may also impact the health of those around you? Breathing clean air isn't something we always think about, but it is an important factor in keeping a healthy environment. Whole-home air purifiers work with your existing heating or cooling system to trap and kill airborne pollutants that are potentially harmful. At Air Conditioning South East, we provide you with online resources to find local NATE-certified technicians who can help you choose the best air quality solutions.
Top Air Purifers
The two different types of air purification systems are whole-home and portable models. Whole-home purifiers are more effective at cleaning every cubic inch of your residence because they work with your existing ductwork to reach all rooms and zones. A qualified technician installs these units into your heating or cooling system and performs maintenance to ensure optimal performance and efficiency. When choosing the best air purification system for you home, the most important factor to consider is the Minimal Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV). The filters are rated on a scale of 1-16 for efficiency. The higher the number, the more effective the filter is at purifying the air. To give you an idea of what to look for, here are the top-rated systems for 2013.Infinity Air Purifier by Carrier®
