FAQs
Why should I install a whole-home air purifier instead of using portable units in my Andersonville home?
Whole-home air purifiers integrate directly with your HVAC system, treating every cubic foot of air that passes through your supply ducts. In Andersonville’s mixed-season climate—hot, humid summers and cold winters—this means you receive continuous filtration no matter which HVAC mode you’re running. Portable units only treat a single room, require frequent filter changes, and can leave other areas under-protected from pollen, dust, pet dander, and airborne pathogens.
How often do the filters in a whole-home air purifier need to be replaced?
Most high-efficiency media filters last 6–12 months in Andersonville’s average home. However, households with pets, smokers, or allergy sufferers may need replacements every 3–6 months. Electrostatic or HEPA-grade filters paired with UV lights can last longer but still require inspection at every seasonal maintenance visit. Our technicians record filter change dates during your spring A/C tune-up and fall furnace check to keep you on schedule.
Will a whole-home air purifier increase my energy bills?
Properly sized air purification systems create minimal additional pressure drop in your ductwork, so any increase in electricity use is typically less than $2–$4 per month. In many Andersonville homes, the purifier can actually help HVAC efficiency by keeping coils and ducts cleaner, which maintains optimal airflow and may lower overall operating costs.
Can a whole-home air purifier help with Andersonville’s pollen and allergy issues?
Yes. Our systems use MERV-13 to HEPA-level filtration that captures up to 99.97% of pollen grains, mold spores, and fine particulates common during Andersonville’s spring and fall allergy seasons. Many models also include activated carbon to neutralize odors and a UV-C or photocatalytic cell to inactivate airborne viruses and bacteria.
What maintenance is required beyond changing filters?
Besides filter changes, UV lamps need replacement roughly every 18–24 months to maintain germicidal strength. Our HVAC technicians also inspect the purifier’s power supply, seals, and pressure drop at each bi-annual maintenance visit. No additional homeowner tasks are necessary—just keep supply and return vents unblocked to ensure balanced airflow.
Can a whole-home air purifier be added to my existing HVAC system, or do I need new equipment?
In most Andersonville residences, we can retrofit a high-efficiency media purifier, electronic air cleaner, or UV-light unit into the return plenum of your current furnace or air-handler. Installation typically takes 2–3 hours with no major duct modifications. If your HVAC system is undersized or has high static pressure, we’ll recommend duct adjustments or a variable-speed blower upgrade to ensure the purifier performs at its rated efficiency.
