Indoor Air Cleaning

Cleaning the air inside your home is one of the most important things you can do for your family’s health. To start with, indoor air is more stale and filled with contaminants than ever before. Because of how homes are currently built – sealed up tight for energy efficiency – normal contaminants like pet dander, dust, and pollen are unable to leave your home through open windows or natural ventilation. As a result, you breathe significantly more of them than is considered healthy. In some cases, you may even breathe excess amounts of bacteria, viruses, and mold – all very unhealthy.

Why not just open a window? Because your home comfort system would pour heated or cooled air outside instead of into your home. The carefully calibrated efficiency in your system would be wasted without a tightly sealed and insulated home. Plus, you would be letting in all of the contaminants found in outdoor air. So, indoor air quality systems are needed to circulate and clean your air regularly and keep a steady flow of fresh air coming in.

How Air Cleaners Work

York’s lineup of air cleaners offers a number of options depending on the size of your home and what contaminants you want to target. While some homeowners start the air cleaning process with single room filters or ionizers that plug into the wall, the best solution is a whole home unit that installs on your air handler directly.

These systems are fantastic because they work 24/7 along with your air handler and they’re easy to access for filter changes and service calls. They are also designed to fit right alongside your existing York heating and cooling systems, so they use minimal electricity to operate.

York Air Cleaner Options

The simplest air cleaner is a media air cleaner. These devices use HEPA filters to eliminate larger particles like dust, pollen, and dander. York offers high end media air cleaners in its Affinity Series that have MERV ratings of 13 – allowing you to capture particles as small as 0.3 microns and eliminate up to 75% of the viruses in your air.

Electronic air cleaners are another common type. York’s Affinity Premium Hybrid Air Cleaner uses ionization technology alongside a filter to remove both the larger particles and smaller particles like viruses, mold spores and bacteria. Electronic air cleaning can even remove smoke and exhaust contamination from your air supply.

Beyond electronic and mechanical air cleaning, you can go one step further with York UVC germicidal lights. These devices install directly into your air handler to destroy any bacteria and viruses at the source – killing them before they circulate into your home.
