One of the services that an AC repair contractor may be able to assist you with is installing an air purifier in your home. An air purification system is one of the most effective ways to remove unwanted elements from the air. According to Good Housekeeping, in a lab setting, a HEPA filter must be able to remove at least 99.97% of particulates measuring 0.3 microns in diameter. If you do not understand exactly what this means, that's okay! Listen as we break down some of the ways this may benefit you.

Gets Rid of Unpleasant Smells

When you walk into your home, ideally, you want your home to smell fresh and clean. This isn't always the case though. If someone burnt dinner, you may smell that scent. If someone smokes, you may smell cigarettes or cigars. Similarly, if you have a pet, you may be able to smell your pet. Air purification systems can filter incredibly well, removing the vast majority of unpleasant smells that can be present in a home.

Removes Allergens and Dander

One of the key reasons why an AC repair contractor may recommend that you install an air purifier in your home is to remove allergens, dust, and dander. If you or a family member suffer from allergies, these elements can give you itchy eyes, a scratchy throat, or a runny nose. By reducing or eliminating them in your home, allergy sufferers can rejoice and breathe a lot easier.

May Eliminate Airborne Germs and Diseases

The most sensitive home air purification system may be able to reduce or eliminate airborne germs and diseases that are floating around in your home. If someone in your home is sick, you may avoid them so you don't get sick. This purification system can catch those germs, helping to reduce the chances of that happening.

An air purification system is able to remove many unpleasant elements from the air you and your family breathe. This can make your home cleaner, help reduce your allergy symptoms, and even reduce the number of times a year your family gets sick. Now that you know some of the key benefits of this type of system, you may be ready to have one installed. An AC repair contractor can help. Call us today at J.
