Many people
turn to investing in air purifiers or plants however, your air conditioner is
one of the easiest ways to achieve this! An air conditioner’s role in improving
indoor air quality is significant, yet often overlooked.
Understanding
how your air conditioner can improve your air will help you create a healthier,
more comfortable living environment.
Here are some ways your HVAC achieves this:
Filtration
Your air conditioner has filters that are designed to capture dust, pollen, pet dander. This circulation process helps remove unwanted particles in the air, which creates a cleaner and healthier space.
Humidity Control
In addition
to regulating temperature, your air conditioner also controls your indoor
humidity levels. High levels of humidity promote mold and mildew growth, and
contribute to health issues like respiratory problems and allergies.
By removing excess moisture from your home, air conditioners improve your overall quality of air.
Ventilation
While air
conditioners primarily recirculate indoor air, they also play a role in
ventilation.
Many modern
buildings have ventilation systems integrated with their HVAC systems to
introduce fresh outdoor air and remove stale indoor air.
Ventilation
like this helps dilute indoor pollutants which is another way to maintain a
healthy indoor environment.
