Media Air Filters
If you don’t have specific concerns about the air quality of your home, media filters offer a low-maintenance option that only needs to be changed once or twice a year.
HEPA Air Filters
There’s a reason the U.S. Department of Health recommends High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters. These state-of-the-art air filters are credited with removing at least 99.7% of harmful airborne particulates such as allergens and pollutants. Our air filter experts also prefer HEPA filters because they are able to capture even the smallest dust, spores, and other contaminants — as small as 0.3 microns. If you or someone you live with struggles with severe allergies or other respiratory issues, HEPA air filters are the best choice.
UV Filters
UV air filters are designed to eradicate mold spores and other microorganisms that are harmful to your health. While UV filters excel at eliminating bacteria and viruses, they are not as effective as HEPA filters at screening out dust and other pollutants. At Climate Mechanics, our indoor air quality experts can incorporate UV filters into a larger HEPA air filter system to meet your needs.
Electrostatic Air Filters
If you are looking for a more affordable option, electrostatic air filters may be the right choice for you. Although they are not as effective as more advanced filters at catching larger pollutants such as dust and mold spores, these reusable or disposable air filters are a cost-effective way to improve air quality inside your home.
