Spring Allergies Are in Full Swing — What’s Your HVAC System Doing About It?
As the snow melts and flowers bloom in Ottawa, many homeowners experience the less pleasant side of spring: allergies. Pollen, dust, and mold spores become prevalent, and if your HVAC system isn’t optimized, these allergens can circulate throughout your home. At AirZone HVAC Services, we specialize in enhancing indoor air quality to help you breathe easier during allergy season.
Upgrade Your Air Filters
Your HVAC system’s air filter plays a crucial role in trapping airborne allergens. Upgrading to a higher MERV-rated filter can capture smaller particles, reducing the amount of pollen and dust in your home. For those with severe allergies, consider HEPA filters for maximum efficiency.
Install a Sanuvox UV Light System
UV light systems, like the Sanuvox R Max, are designed to neutralize airborne pathogens, including mold spores, bacteria, and viruses. Installed directly into your ductwork, these systems purify the air as it circulates, providing continuous protection against allergens. Learn more about our UV lighting solutions.
Enhance Ventilation with HRVs and ERVs
Proper ventilation is essential for maintaining indoor air quality. Heat Recovery Ventilators (HRVs) and Energy Recovery Ventilators (ERVs) exchange stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while conserving energy. This process helps reduce indoor humidity levels and removes airborne pollutants. Explore our ventilation options.
Maintain Optimal Humidity Levels
Balanced humidity levels can significantly impact allergy symptoms. Too much humidity encourages mold growth, while too little can dry out nasal passages. Installing a whole-home humidifier, such as the GeneralAire 570A or the Aprilaire 700M, helps maintain ideal indoor humidity levels.
Comprehensive Air Purification Solutions
For a holistic approach to indoor air quality, consider systems like the Lennox PureAir, which combines UV lighting, MERV 16 filtration, and carbon filtration to remove a wide range of airborne contaminants. These systems are particularly beneficial for households with allergy sufferers.
