3 Signs That You Need an Air Purifier

Friday, April 3rd, 2015

When you live in California, the first thing that may spring to mind when you think about ways in which to live comfortably is your air conditioner. There is no doubt about it; the ability to cool your home effectively is a must when you live in as warm a climate as we do. Even with a great air conditioner and a dependable heater in your home, though, there are other factors which must be considered. For many homeowners, low indoor air quality is a serious issue, impeding their comfort and even adversely affecting the health of residents in the home. Donald P. Dick Air Conditioning can help, though. We install and service quality air purifiers in Fresno, CA.

One of the most common signs that homeowners may encounter which indicates the need for an air purifier installation is the aggravation of allergy and/or asthma symptoms. When airborne pollutants run rampant in your home, they can make their way into your forced air distribution system. This can keep them airborne while distributing them throughout the entire house, causing flareups of any such conditions. By using an air purifier, you can remove many of these pollutants from the air that you breathe.

Another sign that you may require an air purifier, believe it or not, is an inefficient performance from your HVAC system. While you aren’t going to have such extensive pollutants built up in your system that it is unable to distribute conditioned air, it is possible for dirt, dust, and other debris to build up on vital components within that system. In doing so, it can negatively impact its performance. Plus, your air filters may clog with alarming rapidity, which can add excessive airflow resistance to the system and drag down the efficiency with which it operates.

You should also be very wary of any signs that mold is taking hold in your home. Damp conditions can really promote the proliferation of mold therein, so you may want to use a dehumidifier in order to dry out the air to an appropriate level. Still, using a UV air purifier is advisable, as the UV radiation that these devices emits is able to destroy mold spores and other biological pollutants. It won’t get rid of mold that is already present in your home, but a UV air purifier can certainly help you to avoid such problems from developing in the future.
