Whole‑House Air Purifiers
Clean, hospital‑grade air throughout your home.
Function: Captures 99 % of airborne dust, pollen, and pet dander; optional carbon and UV add‑ons neutralize odors and pathogens.
Effectiveness Range: MERV 13–16 media or true HEPA filtration; electronic cleaners trap particles down to 0.1 microns.
Ideal For: Allergy and asthma sufferers, homes with pets, or anyone who wants near‑HEPA air quality without room‑by‑room units.
Highlights: Seamless integration with existing ductwork, low pressure drop for energy efficiency, and third‑party lab testing that meets ASHRAE standards.
Whole‑House Humidifiers & Dehumidifiers
Balanced humidity for year‑round comfort and health.
Function: Adds or removes moisture to maintain the EPA‑recommended 30 – 50 % indoor RH.
Effectiveness Range: 12–18 GPD evaporative humidifiers; dehumidifiers remove up to 120 pints/day.
Ideal For: Minnesota winters that crack wood floors and dry sinuses, or sticky basements that breed mold in July.
Highlights: Automatic digital controls, hygrometer‑based cycling, and ENERGY STAR‑rated units for lower utility bills.
Energy/Heat Recovery Ventilators (ERV/HRV)
Fresh air without energy loss.
Function: Exchanges stale indoor air for filtered outdoor air while reclaiming up to 85 % of heat or cool you’ve already paid for.
Effectiveness Range: Up to 250 CFM; meets ASHRAE 62.2 fresh‑air guidelines for most homes.
Ideal For: Tight, modern homes or remodels where opening windows isn’t practical during sub‑zero cold or high‑pollen days.
Highlights: Balanced ventilation that reduces CO₂ and VOCs, prevents moisture buildup, and boosts overall HVAC efficiency—often qualifying for utility rebates.

FAQs
-
We start with an on‑site air audit: particulate counts, humidity readings, and CO₂/ VOC monitoring. Then we match the data (and any allergy concerns) to the right equipment or combination—always sized to your square footage and duct static pressure.
-
Yes. Media or HEPA cabinets mount in the return plenum, electronic air cleaners replace your current filter slot, and ERV/HRV units tie into supply and return ducts. No major remodeling required.
-
Air Purifiers: Replace media filters 1–2 times a year; wipe electronic cells every 3 months.
Humidifiers/Dehumidifiers: Clean canisters or evaporative pads annually; empty or inspect condensate lines.
ERV/HRV: Wash core and change filters twice a year, especially before winter and pollen season.
Regular service preserves efficiency, air quality, and manufacturer warranties.
