Effective Solutions For Cleaner, Healthier Indoor Air

EPA studies show that indoor air pollution is two to five times higher than outdoor levels.  Without adequate ventilation, pollutants such as chemicals, smoke, and pollen can become trapped indoors, which can make contaminant levels even worse.

Did You Know? A typical central heating and cooling system recirculates over 1 million cubic feet of air each day. This air includes unfiltered dust particles, germs, gases and contaminates that we breathe over and over again. When we breathe this kind of air it can cause allergic reactions, and triggers more serious health problems like asthma, and respiratory ailments.

Wildfire Smoke In the Home

Of particular concern for Colorado homeowners is wildfire smoke. Even light smoke from wildfires can have a major impact on indoor air quality, creating unsafe conditions for persons with health conditions as well as healthy individuals. Smoke from wildfires contains a variety of pollutants, including fine particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), all of which can all have serious health effects.

Trane Clean Effects is the most effective whole house air filtration system available. Air heated or cooled is thoroughly conditioned and meticulously cleaned of up to an unprecedented 99.98% of airborne allergens, including smoke particles that pass through the filter.

Maintaining Healthy Humidity Levels

An often overlooked part of indoor air quality is the effect of Relative Humidity (RH). Colorado's mountain air can be as dry as a desert during the winter season. This excessively dry air can cause dust and other allergens to become more easily airborne, which can worsen allergy and asthma symptoms. Maintaining a minimum relative humidity between 30-50% helps improve indoor air quality and reduces the amount of airbourne particles.

We install advanced whole-home humidification systems that work with your home's heating and ventilation system to provide precise control over humidity levels throughout your home.
