With heating season around the
corner, its time to check your air filter. Its one of the most important parts
of annual air filters maintenance.
A dirty filter will allow more
dust and other contamination to circulate through your home. It also cuts down
on the efficiency of your filter, costing you more in energy expenses.Cut down
on waste, and breathe cleaner air, by using an electronic air filter instead of those throwaway fiberglass
screens. Electronic models are permanent, washable and easy to install and
clean. HEPA filtering systems are the best allergy solution, removing pollen
from the air in your home like no other allergy product can. When you tackle
the source of the problem Here are some suggestions for keeping your home
sensing clean: Do not let anyone smoking inside, vacant the rubbish outside
consistently, put everyday at the end of your rubbish can, smash up some orange
in the spend disposer, and keep the Microsoft Windows open to let in clean air
(assuming pollen/mold is not too great outside).
Disposable fiberglass filters
were designed to remove the largest particles from the air, with the goal of
protecting your heating equipment, not your health. They trap only 10
percentage to 40 percentage of the debris passing through them. Electronic
filters work in the neighborhood of 88 percentages, and are much better at
controlling the bacteria, mold, viruses and pollen that cause illness and
irritation. Permanent Electronic airfilters, also called "electrostatic filters" since they rely on
the principle of static electricity, range in price from more than $500 for
high-end models to as low as $70.
