FAQs
What air-quality issues are most common in Halls homes and businesses?
In the Halls area we regularly see elevated pollen counts, excessive humidity in summer, dry air in winter, and high particulate levels from traffic on Highway 33 and nearby agricultural activity. Our air-quality solutions target these specific concerns with high-Efficiency media filters, whole-house dehumidifiers/humidifiers, and UV-C purification to reduce allergens, dust, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and biological growth.
How do your ventilation upgrades improve indoor air quality without sacrificing energy efficiency?
We install energy-recovery ventilators (ERVs) or heat-recovery ventilators (HRVs) that exchange stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while transferring up to 80 % of the heat or cooling energy. This means your home receives the recommended 0.35 air changes per hour for healthy IAQ, but your HVAC system doesn’t have to work overtime to re-condition the incoming air, lowering utility costs year-round.
How often should I replace or clean my HVAC air filter?
The standard 1-inch pleated filter should be changed every 30–60 days in most Halls households. Homes with pets, smokers, or allergy sufferers may need 20-30 day intervals. If you upgrade to a 4- or 5-inch media cabinet, expect 6- to 12-month service life. Always check the filter monthly; a visibly gray or clogged surface means it’s time to replace it to protect both air quality and system performance.
Can whole-house air purification help with allergies and asthma?
Yes. Our whole-house systems combine high-MERV media filters, photocatalytic oxidation, and germicidal UV-C lights to capture or neutralize up to 99 % of airborne pollen, mold spores, bacteria, and viruses as small as 0.3 microns. By distributing clean air through your existing ductwork, they provide consistent relief in every room, unlike portable units that only treat a single space.
Is controlling indoor humidity really that important?
Absolutely. The ideal relative humidity (RH) for comfort and health is 30–50 %. In East Tennessee summers, RH often exceeds 60 %, encouraging mold growth, dust-mite populations, and that sticky, uncomfortable feeling even when the thermostat says 72 °F. In winter, indoor RH can drop below 25 %, drying out skin and wooden furniture. Whole-home dehumidifiers and humidifiers automatically maintain balanced humidity, improving IAQ and reducing strain on your heating and cooling equipment.
When should I schedule an indoor air-quality assessment?
Consider an assessment if you notice persistent odors, visible dust buildup, respiratory symptoms that improve when you leave the building, or excessive condensation on windows. Our certified technicians can perform particulate counts, carbon-dioxide monitoring, humidity checks, and HVAC inspections. The results guide a tailored action plan ranging from simple filter upgrades to complete ventilation redesigns, ensuring healthier air for your family or employees.
