Home Air Quality

Air quality is definitely the most important concern since it is what we breathe everyday. Inside the home, the air conditioners job is to make you as comfortable as possible, but it just recirculates the same air over and over again. We can replace our filters regularly and this assists to prevent dirty air but to take it a step further we recommend adding additional help to have the best air quality possible by adding an air scrubber to purify the air we breathe.

The activTek INDUCT 2000 utilizes tested ActivePure® technology to substantially reduce odors, visible smoke in the air, and treat contamination on surfaces. In the air, ActivePure®’s nature-based processes are released and circulated, carrying powerful environmental conditioning properties out into and around the area. The activTek provides effective and convenient ways to treat the air being circulated by HVAC systems as it passes through the ducts and out in the indoor environment, taking the solution to the source. All activTek ActivePure® Technology products are tested to insure a level of performance and effectiveness for environmental conditioning.

Clean Evaporator and Condenser Coils: coilsIn air conditioning, heat transfer is the name of the game and clean evaporator coils are where it all happens. The less efficient the heat transfer process is, the longer the compressor cycles in the air conditioner must be to meet thermostat settings. Since the compressor is the primary energy consumer in a central A/C, longer “On” cycles mean higher operating costs and utility bills. Dirty coils alone can increase energy consumption by over 35 percent. It’s also often the root cause behind other dysfunctions such as coil icing and less effective humidity extraction. When diagnosing shortfalls in A/C performance and efficiency, checking for clean evaporator coils is one of the first steps.
